Clinic Review
The Klimkovice Spa and Rehabilitation Center is one of the largest health and rehabilitation facilities in the Czech Republic. It has more than 20 years of experience in neurorehabilitation for adults and children. The clinic is located in an ecologically clean area - in the woodland at the foot of the mountains. All modern methods of complex rehabilitation together with spa treatment are available here.
In Klimkowice we treat adult patients and children with motor and psychomotor disorders resulting from craniocerebral injuries, cerebral palsy, strokes, consequences of surgical interventions on the brain, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease. The centre's rehabilitation specialists pay great attention to improving the memory, speech, cognitive skills, and psychological health of patients. Klimkovice also provides rehabilitation and treatment of orthopaedic (arthritis, arthrosis, joint endoprosthetics) and gynaecological patients.
The Klimkovice complex consists of two main hospital buildings. The first one is fully dedicated to the treatment and rehabilitation of adult patients, the second building is home to the children's ward. Both buildings have comfortable patient rooms, rehabilitation and therapeutic rooms, swimming pools, games rooms, recreational and relaxation areas.

Features of the Clinic
Specialists at the centre use an extremely comprehensive and, most importantly, individual approach, combining motor therapy, speech therapy and psychotherapy techniques with the involvement of cognitive functions in the recovery process.
The Klimkovice Center has open-air baths with therapeutic iodobromine saltwater. The water is extracted from several wells about 500 meters deep from an underground salt lake. This type of mineral water is identical to seawater, but with much higher concentrations of bromine and iodine. Water from the springs is used exclusively externally and has proven effective in the treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system (arthrosis, arthritis, osteochondrosis, rheumatism, injuries). In addition, high concentrations of iodine in this water helps relax muscular spasticity.
Spa treatment at Klimkovice usually includes 30-40 sessions per week, which are individually tailored to the needs of each patient and include physical therapy, therapeutic exercise, massage, exercises with the Redcord subscription system, gym classes, thermal baths with mineral water, magnetic therapy, electrical stimulation, paraffin baths, oxygen therapy and much more.
