Coming from abroad, step by step
Four stages from your first message to the first month back home.
Send your records
A discharge summary from the hospital that treated the original event, and any imaging of the affected area — CT, MRI or X-ray.
A written plan in 48 hours
A rehabilitation physician reviews the case and returns the expected duration, the recommended programme and the centre. Free, no obligation.
Travel and admission
Where a visa is needed we issue an invitation letter and treatment confirmation naming the dates and the facility. You are met at the airport and driven to the centre by private vehicle or ambulance; a bed for one companion and interpreting during therapy are arranged.
Treatment, then home
The programme runs, then you leave with a discharge report and a written home exercise plan. Your return journey is organised before you go, with scheduled video reviews so progress does not stop.
Our treatments
In their words
What patients say after a programme
Short videos filmed during therapy: a child’s rehabilitation after a brain tumour, suspended gait training after spinal cord injury, and learning to walk again after a fall. Individual results vary.

Questions people actually ask
Getting started
How soon can we start?
Usually within three weeks of a confirmed plan, subject to bed availability at the centre the plan recommends.
What do you need from us before you can say anything useful?
The diagnosis and any records you have. A rehabilitation physician reviews the case and within 48 hours you receive a written plan with the expected duration, the recommended programme and the centre. The plan is free and carries no obligation.
The programme
How long does a programme take, and can you tell me before seeing records?
Only as a range. Inpatient neurological programmes are typically three to six weeks per block, often repeated; orthopaedic programmes after joint replacement usually run two to four weeks. A provider giving a precise figure without imaging, discharge summaries and a functional description is guessing.
Only as a range. Inpatient neurological programmes are typically three to six weeks per block, often repeated; orthopaedic programmes after joint replacement usually run two to four weeks. Duration depends on starting level, goal and daily dose.
A provider giving a precise figure without imaging, discharge summaries and a functional description is guessing, and the figure will change after arrival.
Is it too late if the stroke or injury was a long time ago?
No. Walking distance, balance, fitness and independence in specific tasks respond to training years afterwards. What changes is the goal: later programmes work on function and compensation rather than on restoring the original movement pattern.
No. Walking distance, balance, fitness and independence in specific tasks respond to training years afterwards, because they depend on practice and conditioning as well as on neurological recovery.
What changes is the goal. Later programmes work on function and compensation rather than on restoring the original movement pattern, and they should be judged on measured change like any other.
Travel and stay
Can my relative travel in a wheelchair?
Almost always — most of our international patients arrive by wheelchair.
Do you help with visas?
Where a visa is needed we issue an invitation letter and treatment confirmation naming the dates and the facility. We do not submit applications on your behalf and cannot influence the outcome, but the documentation is what applications usually lack.
Payment and insurance
Why do we not publish prices?
Because duration is the main variable and duration depends on the case. A price range is given in your written plan once a physician has read your records, rather than published here and revised after you arrive.
Will insurance cover it?
Usually not for planned treatment abroad, though there are exceptions within the EU and EEA and in some private policies. The determining factor is written prior authorisation before treatment, not a claim afterwards.
Contact your insurer with the specific treatment and provider and ask for a written answer before you travel.
