About the hospital

VAMED Rehabilitation Clinic Kipfenberg was opened in 1993 as an innovation center. Today it is a specialized neurological clinic with a center for people with paraplegia. During its existence, the hospital was expanded twice and became a leading structure in the field of restoration of body functions.

The modern building with a view of the mountains accommodates 135 places for patients. Rehabilitators have everything to treat patients with severe illnesses in intensive care shortly after the acute phase. It has been proven that the earlier patients start rehabilitation, the more progress they make. Kipfenberg VAMED Rehabilitation Clinic also accepts patients with neurosurgical and neurological diseases, including immune diseases. In addition, 20 beds with ventilation and bedside monitoring stations help quickly respond to changes in the body and work in weaning patients from ventilators.

Each patient has the opportunity to receive a high-precision examination of the brain, spine, and state of the nervous system. Intracranial and extracranial Doppler and duplex sonography are available for stroke diagnosis and prevention, endoscopy, CCT, CT, ECG, Echocardiography, and kinematic analysis of arm and gait functions under one roof. Special rehabilitation has developed a model of patient-centered treatment together with the University of Eichstatt-Ingolstadt. The program provides the use of various directions at the same time. Physiotherapists use Bobath, Affolter, or PNF according to the needs and abilities of the patients. Also, an essential component is therapeutic baths with various additives. These include hydroelectric baths and the Stanger bath. Parallel electrotherapy, in combination with ultrasound, improves metabolism and reduces pain. In addition, laser therapy helps to accelerate the healing of bedsores, ulcers, and all other types of skin damage. Thanks to the constant search for innovative treatment methods, music cure, and art therapy are also a component of treatment for developing cognitive functions and plasticity of the nervous system. Also, rehabilitators work on reducing pain sensations and strive to reduce the use of medications. To do this, doctors teach patients the correct and prudent use of drugs and determine the lowest effective dose with the best administration periods.

Kipfenberg VAMED Rehabilitation Center provides rehabilitation care for patients with degenerative diseases of the nervous system, dementia, diseases of the muscles and peripheral nervous system, Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis, glioblastoma, and meningioma.

About the city

Kipfenberg is a small town in Upper Bavaria with 6,000 people. The city is part of the Altmullalb natural area. Wooded and rocky mountains, numerous castles, and observation decks filled the hearts of tourists worldwide.

The town, originally built around a market square, was well-fortified with gates and towers. It was first mentioned in a document of 1266. Numerous churches and local architecture have been preserved from those times and provide a unique atmosphere. Rich culture and active social life are the main characteristics of the city. The first Limes Festival was held in 1968 and started the Kippenberg Carnival tradition with spectacular costumes and distinctive traditional rituals. Also, the support of sports activities and an ecological lifestyle are harmoniously combined with two intercity cycling routes passing through the city (German Limes and Altmuhltalradweg). The Linden Road also runs through the city, exploring 60 crucial Roman UNESCO sites. Also, evening walks can be supplemented with delicious dinners in restaurants or visit CO-Muller exhibitions for daytime variety.

Prof. medical Hans Eric Klar and Dr. medical doctor Rudolf Preger, who has worked in the city since the mid-1980s, came together to open early neurological rehabilitation. Such a direction was an absolute novelty for Germany, which came in handy and already, in 1992, became a reality. VAMED Rehabilitation Clinic Kipfenberg has been one of the leading rehabilitation centers in neurology since its inception. Today, the city is known for selling high-quality farm products and for employment in the field of beekeeping.

Despite its small area, the city's history and events are rich and vital to German culture. Tourists visit the city more often, appreciating the opportunity to immerse themselves in the fairy tale and ancient support traditions.
