About the Department of Neurological Rehabilitation at Clinic Valmont Montreux

The Department of Neurological Rehabilitation at the Clinic Valmont Montreux offers all the options of modern medicine for the restoration of lost motor skills, speech, swallowing and cognitive functions in patients with nervous system diseases.

The aim of rehabilitation treatment is to maximize the patient's reintegration into the usual everyday life. All programs are designed for a specific type of disease and are adapted to each clinical case individually. Important attention is paid to the psychological aspect, so that the patient can accept the changes and limitations caused by the neurological pathology.

The first stage of rehabilitation is the comprehensive diagnostics and assessment of the patient's condition followed by an interdisciplinary board, during which the department's doctors determine the specific rehabilitation purposes and select the most effective therapeutic measures.
