Multiple Sclerosis is a multidimensional disease and therefore its holistic treatment requires a specialized and diverse team staffed by experienced medical and paramedical staff.
With a program of responsibility the Multiple Sclerosis department seeks to exercise the body, mind and soul, recognizing that a comprehensive approach has the most positive effect on the patient’s overall health. In addition, the importance of a multidimensional and individualized rehabilitation program in the functional improvement of MS sufferers, but also in addressing quality of life issues, is increasingly recognized.
Substantial scientific evidence now supports the view that MS patients should be involved in decision-making to determine the best approach to rehabilitation at a given stage of the disease course.
