Clinic Review

The Diaplasis Rehabilitation and Recovery Center

The Diaplasis Rehabilitation and Recovery Center is the leading rehabilitation clinic in Greece. It aims to help patients from all over the world to regain their health after injuries of the musculoskeletal system, heart surgery, diseases of the nervous system. 90% of Diaplasis patients manage to restore their body functions and get back to their normal lives.

The hospital provides medical services according to ISO 9001 quality standards worldwide and is monitored by the Greek National Health Organization EOPYY.

In all developed countries of the world, patients after heart attacks, strokes, craniocerebral injuries, complex fractures, and major surgeries are referred to a rehabilitation centre. This is necessary since full home recovery is impossible after such injuries. Only specialists can restore patients’ ability to move, coordinate movements, speak, and take care of themselves.

The Dialysis Clinic employs rehabilitation therapists, physical therapists, speech therapists, and occupational therapists with more than 15 years of experience. They collectively prescribe the most suitable rehabilitation scheme, which takes into account all the individual characteristics of the patient (condition at the time of arrival at the hospital, the presence of chronic diseases, etc).

A personalized treatment plan and continuous improvement of rehabilitation methods allow for the most effective recovery of patients: 85% of patients regained their health in 2015, 87% in 2016 and 90% in 2017.

Robotic methods of rehabilitation at Diaplasis Clinic

Patients at the Diaplasis Rehabilitation Center in Greece have access to an advanced robotic system for restoring walking function, the Lokomat.

This is a unique automated device with orthoses that helps return the ability to walk to patients after stroke, spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, craniocerebral injuries.

With the Lokomat, Diaplasis specialists teach patients how to walk properly using repetition and goal-oriented teaching methods. This approach to rehabilitation allows for shorter treatment times and a quick return to the patient’s usual way of life.

The advantages of the Lokomat robotic system:

The Diaplasis Rehabilitation and Recovery Center
  • the patient performs a longer and more intense functional workout compared to training on a conventional treadmill;
  • the device provides a physiological walking pattern with individually adjusted orthotics and a weight support system;
  • the Lokomat is suitable for rehabilitating children, as it has children’s robotic orthoses;
  • the system allows the patient’s progress to be measured, which helps to adjust the type and duration of exercise, and the patient sees their results in real-time, which is additional motivation.

The Lokomat is a support system for hip joints and two robotic lower limbs. Rehabilitation procedures with this device are performed on a special track with a connected body weight support system. Doctors control the Lokomat system via a computer.

Also available at the Diaplasis Rehabilitation Center is the Erigo robotic platform with an automated orthopaedic device for lower limb movement and mobilization of neurological patients. This device allows accelerating the early rehabilitation of patients after stroke, craniocerebral injuries, spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease.

Erigo provides intensive motor therapy and cyclic exercise for the lower extremities. The system helps recovery of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, as well as the musculoskeletal system.
