■About Rehabilitation
The

several professionals assembly. Unlike other invasive treatment,
Rehabilitation medicine offers adequate modalities for pathological ill,
neuromuscular reconstruction and functional restoration
Our
faculty includes the Physiatrists,
Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists, Speech-Language Pathologists
and Nurse Practitioner. All the team members of this group
have made their efforts to various extent quite successful. We provide well
qualified environment and techniques to help those who suffered from physical
pain, disabled by accident, or unfortunately handicapped by heritage.
Comprehensive diagnosis and early intervention stands for the brilliant
achievement of this faculty.
The Physical
Therapists evaluate patients in a biomechanical way. The
physical potential is fully emphasized as well as functional performance.
Take for example the myofacial pain, physical therapy
considers equal importance between pain relief and neuromuscular restoration.
For that purpose,regular exercise could be one of the therapeutic
considerations other than TENS application.
The Occupational
Therapists consider human as a whole. Performance tasks are
emphasized through activities of daily living. The triangle balance among work,
play and rest turns out to be the ultimate value. Occupational therapy
programs include full extent of varieties: the patient himself physically and
psychologically, the solid environment and, all the possible interaction
related to all.
The Speech-Language
Pathologists help a lot in the promotion of communications with
patients. To a certain level, the treatment service lies its emphasis on the
assessment of articulation, voice, fluency, apraxia, aphasia and language.
For more intensive care, pathological conditions of all kinds of clients are
notified such as neuromuscular deficits or pediatric developmental delay.
