Functional rehabilitation in Turkey

Rehabilitation aims at enabling people to resume the activities that they used to do before suffering from any damage or injury.

In fact, there are neurologic, orthopaedic, psychological, oncologic conditions. In physical therapy, we deal with some of these diseases, especially those related to the orthopaedic, traumatological, neurologic, and respiratory fields.

For each of these areas, there is a wide range of different rehabilitation approaches in our hospitals and clinics in Turkey. However, they have a common goal: ensuring the well-being of patients and recovering the skills lost during the disease.

We will talk about functional rehabilitation which is a rehabilitative field that is not well known but has a modern vision. We will explain what it is, what it consists of, and in what conditions it is indicated.

The kinaesthesia phase is one of the cornerstones of functional rehabilitation.

Kinaesthesia has a fundamental importance in the mechanism of movement control through the sensory feedback of neurons.

Through specific exercises, we work on the kinaesthetic abilities of the individual. This is done by favouring better motor control and improving the dynamic stability of the joints in general and muscle response.

Re-education of the proper function of the segment affected by the trauma is one of the last steps. After working on the joints, you must teach the muscles to work in a coordinated and simultaneous sequence. This is achieved by repetition and by refining the movement.

The last step represents the overall recovery of the patient. It will be done by reintegrating the segment affected by the trauma into the whole body functions. Thus, the patient can return to normal sports or daily activities through the proper functioning of all anatomic structures.
