Hospiten Estepona has launched the Rehabilitation and Physiotherapy service, following the recent expansion of its facilities and highly specialized services, with a specialized unit equipped with the latest technology. This new service marks the difference compared to conventional rehabilitation and physiotherapy.
The Rehabilitation and Physiotherapy service categorizes patients according to the type of visit. On the one hand, patients referred by the Traffic Unit, who normally receive an initial or basic recovery approach, are attended. This service includes assistance coverage and legal advice, if the patient deems it appropriate.
On the other hand, patients requiring advanced physiotherapy are attended, with personalized and specific treatments, according to their diagnosis and clinical needs.
At the same time, this Rehabilitation and Physiotherapy Unit offers a physiotherapy protocol for those patients admitted after surgery, who may receive advanced physiotherapy 24 hours after the operation, as long as the specialist doctor considers it beneficial for their recovery. In the case of patients who undergo an operation for Traumatology, again, as long as the medical professional authorizes it, this type of advanced physiotherapy is recommended.
"The implementation of the new Rehabilitation and Physiotherapy Service at Hospiten Estepona can have a very positive impact on patients' health, both in the short and long term," says the Medical Director of Hospiten Estepona, Dr. José Carlos Salas. The main benefits include faster and more effective recovery, thanks to the combination of manual therapy and advanced technology; personalized attention, which improves clinical results and reduces the risk of sequelae; reduced pain and improved functionality, especially in trauma and post-surgical pathologies; reduced postoperative complications, by starting early physiotherapy when indicated, and an improvement in quality of life, by facilitating early return to daily activities and work.
"Physiotherapy has always been closely linked to manual therapy, but in recent years it has also incorporated technology, significantly speeding up the recovery process," says Hugo Quintana, head of the Rehabilitation and Physiotherapy service at Hospiten Estepona.
Hospiten Estepona has a team of professionals who deal with each person's case in a personalized and individualized way, offering comprehensive care. Specifically, the Rehabilitation and Physiotherapy Unit has state-of-the-art, latest-generation devices and equipment, which helps to speed up the recovery process for patients.
In terms of equipment, this Unit has state-of-the-art technology that allows it to offer highly specialized treatments, thus differentiating it from conventional physiotherapy.
