BOBATH:

The Bobath Concept is a method of problem solving for the assessment and treatment of an individual person with restrictions of tonus movement and function, due to an injury to the central nervous system.  The aim of this treatment is to improve and facilitate postural controil and selective movement.  The concept is based on normal reflexes, to inhibit and regain movement through regular handling.  The Bobath Concept is a holistic entry to treatment of damages inside the central nervous system that results in deviation from the norm.

 

People with neurological conditions suffer in many different ways.

 

1.  Lack of self awareness

2. Uncertainty

3. Motor disorders

 

For many of our patients, this means starting at hte beginning, practising cognitive, associative, sensory and verbal skills.  In addition to the rehabilitation of severely ill patients, our work covers Out-Patient treatment following:

  1. Strokes (ischaemia, bleeding)
  2. Brain and bone marrow
  3. Operations on the brain, bone marrow and peripheral nerves
  4. Specific individual treatment of neuro-degenerative and inflammatory diseases of the nervous system such as Parkinson's disease, ataxias, multiple sclerosis.  Excellent results can be achieved where the latest knowledge and methods become part of medical diagnostics and treatment.

PACING NEW ACTIVITIES

The rehabilitation helps the patient to learn how to pace his or her activities in new ways.  At the forefront of the treatment programme ar AST Rehabilitation Clinic, is the long term stabilisation of the cardiovascular system.  In order to be able to cope with demands of everyday life and work, patients undergo organ and function related movement therapy and learn to adapt their lifestyle to their physical circumstances and to reduce risk factors.
