Mr. Rinas’ rehabilitation journey following his stroke in September 2022 is an inspiring story of willpower and intrinsic motivation, growth and the constant search for improvement.
The decision in favor of cereneo
After his first rehabilitation stay, Mr. Rinas was looking for a clinic that offered more intensive and specialized therapies, as he had clear goals: he wanted to improve his mobility and become more independent. He chose cereneo, not least because of our expertise and advanced therapy equipment such as the Lokomat.
Therapeutic variety and individual customization of treatments
From the beginning of his stay, Mr. Rinas was supported with a variety of therapies, including Lokomat training, electrostimulation, osteopathy and specialized water therapy that were constantly adapted to his specific needs and progress. By constantly adapting and expanding his therapy plan, he was able to make significant improvements in areas such as balance, strength and arm and leg coordination. This progress was not only reflected in his physical health, but also increased his confidence and independence in daily life.
Self-determination in therapy
A key element of the therapy concept at cereneo is the involvement of the patient in the decision-making process when developing the treatment plan. By constantly informing him of the different therapy options, he was able to actively participate in deciding which therapy focus was right for him. This approach increased his understanding and motivation. The possibility of being involved in his own therapy planning was decisive for his positive attitude and his success.
A look into the future
After a 6-week stay at our clinic in Hertenstein, Mr. Rinas achieved the best therapy results since his stroke. His journey is not over yet; he plans to continue his therapy and get even closer to his goals. He is optimistic about the future and is determined to continue working on his mobility and independence. His next big goal is to be able to fully participate in social life again and to be able to walk independently without a rollator.
A lifelong and continuous process
Mr. Rinas’ recovery journey is a shining example of the importance of determination, personalized therapy and the support and motivation of a dedicated medical team. It shows that even in the chronic phase after a stroke, progress is possible and gives hope to others. His experience underlines the importance of patience, determination, and belief in one’s own strength. Mr. Rinas’ journey is an inspiration to anyone facing similar challenges and proves that with the right support and attitude, remarkable recovery successes can be achieved.
