Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation Mission & Philosophy
The rehabilitation process is long-term and includes the following phases:
Rehabilitation begins during the acute and early stages of the condition at the Attica Rehabilitation & Recovery Center with an intensive rehabilitation program. The primary objective is to guide the recovery process, minimize negative neuroplasticity adaptations, and facilitate mechanisms for restoring or compensating for impaired functions to achieve cognitive and motor neurological maturity and functionality. Early-phase rehabilitation is considered the ideal intervention period, as spontaneous recovery mechanisms are strongest during this time. These are enhanced through specialized rehabilitation techniques, supported by robotic technology and virtual reality tools.
Patients participate in group therapy with individuals experiencing similar conditions and engage in therapeutic recreational activities, such as sports, as well as the use of virtual reality to sustain progress.
Patients are trained in self-care, and caregivers are taught how to manage daily life effectively, ensuring the best possible long-term results.
