VAMED Rehabilitation Clinic Hamburg

VAMED Rehabilitation Clinic Hamburg is a private centre that provides quality individual rehabilitation programs. The focus is on patients after injuries, joint operations and functional disorders due to neurological deficits.

In 2010, the BAR highly rated the clinic and awarded it the "Medical Rehabilitation in Proven Quality" quality mark. In 2012 and 2015, the rehabilitation centre received accreditation from the Association of Schleswig-Holstein Hospitals (KGSH). The most important advantages of the centre are the work of only certified specialists with highly effective treatment methods and training patients in rehabilitation and adaptation to everyday life. Furthermore, maintaining communication between the patient and the doctor after the completed course of treatment is also available.

Klein-Vogelbach's FBL (functional movement theory) allows doctors to study the patient's motor behaviour, analyze them and individually select the necessary rehabilitation. The clinic works with different degrees of complexity and uses various types of restoration in combination or separately. Water training helps patients to increase the endurance and strength of the body and improves the patient's mobility. Thanks to BGM (connective tissue massage), doctors affect not only the place of impression but also distant internal organs through increased nerve stimulation. In addition, physical therapists offer spinal alignment in the Brace-Dorn-Fleig complex method. The technique includes a vigorous back massage, deep back muscle relaxation, and psychological tension reduction. Increased blood circulation allows the intervertebral discs to recover faster. Cranio-sacral therapy and the Fascial Distortion Model (FDM) also promote muscle relaxation and pain reduction in acute or chronic conditions through pressure and massage on body areas. Electrotherapy is available in various modes to achieve muscle contraction or relaxation, pain reduction, and tissue warming. The movement of electrically charged particles (positive and negative ions) supports healing and increases tissue metabolism. Jacobsen's progressive muscle relaxation also helps restore limb function by sequentially contracting and relaxing 16 muscle groups. Marnitz massage and manual lymphatic drainage remove swelling, improve the local condition of the skin and reduce general inflammation. In addition, the Hamburg VAMED Rehabilitation Clinic works with athletes who have been injured, have undergone surgery or are in the training stage.

Enhanced rehabilitation care (IRENA), training patients in exercises and prevention of complications, sports physiotherapy and various physical procedures are included in the list of medical centre services. A high level of efficiency is ensured by the combination of multiple methods and the vast experience of specialists.

Hamburg is the second-largest metropolis in Germany, located on the banks of the Elbe. It is one of the wealthiest cities in the country, the largest port, and a real "Gateway to the World." Hamburg has been a center of European trade since it joined the Hanseatic League in the Middle Ages. The maritime spirit and traditions of the Hanse permeate Hamburg through and through: from architecture and sights to culture, food, and the cries of seagulls in the streets.

Most of the sights of Hamburg are concentrated in the central part of the city, bounded from the south by the Elbe and its channels, and from all other sides by the city ramparts. The city's symbol is a 132-meter tower called Michael, belonging to the church of St. Michael. The city is rich in its cultural heritage, which visitors can find in its museums, theatres, cathedrals, and churches. Hamburg has more than 40 theatres and 50 museums of various kinds. In addition, the city has more parks and squares than any other city in Germany. Regarding the number of bridges, Hamburg ranks first in Europe, as there are more than 2,300 bridges in the city.

Many types of industries thrive in Hamburg. Among them are chemical, oil, electrical, and many others. Hamburg is also home to the headquarters of many world-famous trading firms, banks, insurance, and economic organizations. Hamburg is rightly called the media capital of Germany. After all, it is here that the famous publishing houses of the socio-political press "Stern" and "Spiegel" are located. Particular attention is paid to the healthcare system, so the city has much developed public and private medical institutions. For example, University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf is the largest provider of medical services in Europe and annually treats more than half a million patients.

A visit to Hamburg is an unexpectedly vivid and memorable experience. The city perfectly combines old traditions and the modern rhythm of life. Guests can enjoy excellent cuisine, a wide variety of museums and galleries, concerts, and festivals. Hamburg leaves behind only the most pleasant memories and the desire to return again and again.
