Center for neurology and neurorehabilitation cereneo

Why not take advantage of living in the 21st century? The founders of the cereneo clinic, Prof. Andreas Luft and Michael Horacek, wanted to make science useful for people. That is why all scientific discoveries are immediately put into practice within the walls of the centre. Injuries that are considered incurable in other clinics can be treated at cereneo. The specialists are willing to experiment, try new technologies and improve therapy methods to help in every case.

The cereneo clinic opened in 2013. Its main profile is neurorehabilitation of patients after strokes and craniocerebral injuries. Special attention is paid to the adaptation of patients with Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson’s disease. They are taught to retain their ability to function and perform everyday activities. The centre also rehabilitates patients with brain aneurysms, Bell’s palsy, cerebral palsy, Guillain-Barré syndrome, muscular dystrophy, epilepsy, brain and spinal cord tumours.

The second direction of the clinic is scientific research. As a research institute, cereneo conducts experiments to find and improve methods of neurorehabilitation. That is why most of the doctors at cereneo have a doctorate or professor’s degree in medicine. The results of the research will help to improve the quality of life of patients and facilitate their rehabilitation.

Rehabilitation at Cereneo Clinic means 21st-century technology, luxurious 5-star hotel rooms, a fresh alpine climate, and regained self-confidence.

Cooperation with research centres:

cereneo is one of the world’s leading clinics and research institutes in the field of neurorehabilitation. The main difference between cereneo and other rehabilitation centres is close cooperation with science. The specialists of the centre actively monitor scientific publications and try to quickly implement successful innovations. At the moment, the clinic cooperates with several research centres:

Accommodation at the cereneo clinic

All the rooms are ergonomically arranged so that people with reduced mobility can move around without too much difficulty.

A nutritionist doctor prepares a special diet tailored to the individual needs of the patient, which provides the person with all the necessary vitamins and minerals for effective rehabilitation.

Also, patients and their caregivers are provided with various leisure activities: kayaking, boating excursions, a gym and a sauna.

Diagnostics at cereneo

Doctors perform a detailed diagnosis of the patient. As a result, they want to know the condition of each of the patient’s organs. Taking into account the general condition of the patient, the medical team draws up an individual treatment program. The clinic has the latest and best technology at its disposal for an accurate diagnosis. The fMRI procedure is carried out on the most powerful machine in the world. The specialists can measure movement, speech and memory disorders. Also, reliable robotic systems participate in the diagnostics.

“The Three Whales” of Rehabilitation at cereneo:

The success of rehabilitation is associated with hours of practice. The patient performs exercises from motor therapy using modern equipment: exoskeletons, motion analysis systems, virtual reality programs, and robotic systems.

To improve a patient’s condition after a stroke, Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease, doctors use magnetic brain stimulation. This is a safe procedure without side effects, which is effective in the early and late stages of the disease. Rehabilitation of patients is not limited to physical exercises. The medical team makes up a diet and conducts psychological counselling.

Work with Therapists

The cereneo clinic takes particular pride in the fact that three specialists work with each patient to perfectly accommodate personal desires and provide individual, interdisciplinary therapy. The patient is constantly surrounded by the attention of doctors: the therapists work with them for 4-8 hours a day. Why is this necessary?

The clinic management believes that intensive personal therapy and a desire to recover are important for a patient’s successful rehabilitation. That is why the clinic staff tries to create an atmosphere of supportive optimism for the patient. For this purpose, they are constantly informed about the progress of treatment. Seeing the improvements, the patient is encouraged and puts more effort into the rehabilitation course. Also, individual lifestyle and hobbies are integrated into the therapy, which also increases the patient’s motivation and well-being.
