Often, as we age or as a result of injury, illness, or trauma, we lose some of our motor abilities. Difficulty getting out of bed in the morning, painful bending, difficulties in walking or balancing, climbing stairs, and many other discomforts can hinder our usual daily activities and turn them into a reason to stop doing what we love. When more and more movements become difficult and the pain intensifies, it's time to seek a
SPECIALIST WHO CAN HELP US DISCOVER THE CAUSES.
At Sevtopolis Medical & SPA Hotel, a team of highly qualified and experienced physiotherapists performs a functional examination of the musculoskeletal system in dynamics, i.e. during movement. The goal is to assess the motor potential of the body and to
RESTORE OPTIMAL MOTOR FUNCTIONS.
To perform the functional examination, no equipment is used. The examination begins with taking an anamnesis or the so-called medical history of the disease. In most cases, even just the anamnesis alone directs our experienced specialists as precisely as possible to what the specific problem leading to the client's symptoms might be.
The physiotherapist continues with observation as a method of examination – observing
HOW THE CLIENT PERFORMS THE MOVEMENTS
which he is instructed to do, inquiring about the range of motion in which they are performed, and whether there is any discomfort or more serious pain.
Numerous manual tests follow, with which the specialist examines
THE RANGE OF MOTION IN EACH JOINT,
sensitivity, muscle elasticity and tone, muscle activity and weakness, the condition of nerve tissue, and its ability to move and stretch.
If it appears that a specific body structure could be the cause of pain,
SPECIFIC TESTS,
are applied to confirm or reject the hypothesis.
After evaluating the functional condition, an
INDIVIDUAL KINESIOTHERAPY PLAN
is developed, consisting of movements and exercises with information and guidelines for dealing with the problem during the stay at Sevtopolis Medical & SPA Hotel, as well as at home.
Depending on the specific case, scientifically proven and established therapeutic methodologies are used, and various techniques from manual therapy, movements, and exercises to reduce pain, support the recovery process, and return to an active lifestyle are applied.
We are looking forward to welcoming you at Sevtopolis Medical & SPA Hotel – your partner for more health and more movement!
