A multi professional treatment is essential in order to obtain a success-ful rehabilitation of spinal deformi-ties with long lasting effect.

Besides the comprehensive medical and diagnostic initial examinations also the diagnosis by the physio-therapist at the beginning (with a special diagnosis of the scoliosis and deformity) is the basis of further physiotherapeutic proceedings.

Medical Service Physicians from different medical fields are working in our clinic. This medical team has solid knowledge in the conservative treatment of spinal deformities. The comprehensive continued training and the specializing in the conservative therapy of scoliosis guarantees a qualified treatment of all patients on a high medical level following the latest scientific knowledge.

Nursing and Diagnostics The members of our nursing team are examined nurses. Their task is to respond to the demands of our mainly ado-lescent patients with spinal deformities. Our nursing team is available 24 hours per day. As we have a lot of young patients educational work is also important. The daily duty of our nursing team is the individual care of our patients, who are sick and must stay in bed as well as the realization of the orders given by the physicians. The control of the brace wearing time is also among the daily duties of our nursing team.

All divisions work together - for a professional therapy.

The Three-Dimensional Scoliosis Therapy The basis of our intensive scoliosis rehabilita-tion is the three-dimensional scoliosis therapy according to Katharina Schrothwith therapy standards which have been tested and developed for decades. This treatment method respects the feedback mechanisms especially the aware-ness for posture and movement. Patients exercise under the supervision of physical thera pists to improve posture by reduction of the asymmetrical loading and the imbalance.

Correct breathing is a basic part of the Schroth therapy. The idea is to affect the typical scoli-otic breathing patterns and help to correct the rotation and side deviation of the spine. During the functional and individual training sessions patients perform the expansion of the collapsed trunk areas.

The first week of therapy is regarded as a learn-ing stage and is to give knowledge about the

individual curve pattern and anatomical devi-ations and develop an individualized exercise program.

During the exercise program of the following treatment weeks the patients learn to be aware of the wrong habitual posture and correct this posture consciously and maintain it also in strainful situations in everyday life. The scolio-sis therapy is realized mainly in groups guided by physical therapists or in individual training sessions supervised by a physical therapist. The size of the group depends on the indication and the kind of exercises which have to be learned and trained.

This exercise program is very intensive and can only be learned during an in-patient treatment. In this way we can guarantee many and inten-sive hours of therapy. The aim of the in-patient rehabilitation program is the straightening of

Curve progression should be prevented and minor functional curves should be corrected. Patients should develop an awareness of cor-

rect posture to avoid deterioration of the curva-ture in everyday life.

Our program trains how to support postures in standing and sitting positions in daily life to re-duce strain on the spine and trunk, thus aiming at a reduction of the load on the main curve.

Pain TherapyPatients who suffer from pain get pain therapy which is ordered by the treating physician. Pain therapy which takes place in small groups or is given individually, consists of different compo-nents. There is the therapy which follows the methods of Katharina Schroth and respects the individual pain, also alleviated by the care of our psychologists. Other components are phys-iotherapeutic techniques as for example manual therapy, PNF (activation and strengthening of supporting muscles), MC Kenzie and Brügger (stabilizing technique to reduce painful strain).

Occupational Therapy Our occupational therapy concept is realized in small groups or in an individual therapy:

Supporting and training of self-competence for a correct posture and movement in pro-fessional life (at work).

Training to get a body feeling.

Recognizing typical strainful situations at work or at home.

Acting and finding solutions to organize an ergonomic working place (working place training).

Recognizing how patients can get support and strain reduction in everyday life.

Becoming aware of the relations which exists between posture and pathophysiolgic re- actions due to strain and pain.

Training of motorical capabilities to be able to respond to the demands of everyday life.

Testing of certain jobs and daily situations (for example work in the office and household).

Training for young people who begin their professional life.

Creating an awareness and the capability of changing typical postures when learning at school and doing homework.

The organization of an active free-time is very important and com-pletes the medical and physio-therapeutic treatment. For us it is essential that patients are balanced, creative and are able to have fun.

Games and Fun – the Free-time Program for our young Patients We offer a supervised free-time program for our young patients from Monday to Friday. During this time the children can play, do handicrafts, read or take part in out-door activities. A specially trained team takes care of the children and encourages them to do something together.

Active and creative – Organized Free-time for all In the evening of all weekdays and at the weekends patients have different possibilities to spend their free-time individually.

The team who is responsible for organizing the free-time always comes up with new ideas for those who want to spend their free-time actively, for example by doing sports, by hiking, taking part in competitions, playing social games or other activities and for those who choose more creative activities as for example doing handicrafts.

Being active. The Free-time Program.

They can use two large rooms provided for free-time, an indoor pool, tables for playing table tennis, a place for playing beach volley ball, a field for soccer and basket ball.

They can take part in the public viewing of important sport contests or karaoke and disco nights and get raised up by the euphoria. Our team also organizes beauty sessions or inform about many interesting subjects.

A successful rehabilitation also de-pends on the surroundings.

The particular location of the Askle-pios Katharina-Schroth-Klinik close to the centre of Bad Sobernheim is perfect for an active free-time program. The Clinic is surround-ed by nature. Not far from the city centre with its shops you can en-joy sightseeing points in the near neighbourhood.

Many new Impressions – Bad SobernheimBad Sobernheim is known for its location in the scenic “Mittlere Nahetal” with untouched nature, rich in history, premium vines, superbly cooked dishes and interesting offers for your free-time. Bad Sobernheim and its neighbourhood have many attractions, for example Germany’s first barefoot path. While walking suc-cessively on grass, mud, sand, stones and a dexterity parcours you get to a ford and cross the river Nahe. You can also cross the Nahe via a wooden bridge and get back to the starting point by using a 40 m long suspension bridge. It is also possible to cross the river “Nahe” in a small boat by steering it yourself. Another highlight is the open air museum situated very close to the Clin-ic. Many historic buildings give impressions of 500 years of life in Rhineland-Palatinate. Many miles of bike tracks in a wonder-ful nature can be found in the valley of the river “Nahe”.

Where Saint Hildegard lived – The Abbey on the DisibodenbergThe ruins of the abbey can be seen on the top of the Disiboden-berg embedded in the charming landscape between the “Glan” and “Nahe” rivers. The abbey is surrounded by a romantic park (created by Johann Metzger, the famous garden architect of Heidelberg), from which you have a wonderful view over the landscape. Here, Saint Hildegard began to write down her visions which are still of great importance for many people.

Enjoying. The Surroundings.

On Rails – Draisine tour on the Banks of the river “Glan” At a certain time the railroad between “Altenglan” and “Staudernheim” was no longer used. The distance of 40 km can now be covered by carriages on rails (Draisine) designed for two or more people. The carriages must be moved by hand or pedals. The rails lead through a very enchanting landscape. There are many stops, from where you can dis-cover the neighbourhood.

Bad Kreuznach – a Town with Flair and rich in HistoryThis town located at the river “Nahe” is the main centre of the region. It is worthwhile to visit the beautiful old town with the famous bridge houses (“little Venice”) excavations of Roman sites as well as the health and spa area. In the “Salinental”, an open-air inhalatorium, you can inhale the salt-enriched air from the salines and relax.

Bad Münster am Stein – a Town between the RocksThe romantic health and spa resort lies embedded between two large rocks not far from Bad Kreuznach. The “Roten-fels” with the height of 202 m is the steepest rocky wall between the Alps and Scandinavia. From its top you have a beautiful panoramic view. A hiking trail follows the steep wall. Get the kick!

„ So many beautiful landscapes, nice towns and interesting sightseeing points. You would like to stay

for ever.“Ralf Schneberger (Head of the Tourists‘ Information Bad Sobernheim)
