The “Forced Use Paradigm” is one part of our management strategies for the treatment of patients with neurological conditions. In this article, we explain how it works and it contributes to a better recovery.
At cereneo, we combine different strategies for the recovery of the lost abilities, always adapted to the level of function and interests of our patient. Together with our patient and their relatives we design an individualised therapy plan so that we can work together with high intensity and high motivation to achieve the best results possible:
Neurorehabilitation is a complex medical process which aims to aid recovery from a nervous system injury and to minimise and compensate for any functional alterations resulting from it.
The prevention of a stroke and its recurrence is focused on the modification of known risk factors. Some risk factors for a stroke such as hypertension, diabetes and high level of cholesterol, can be modified by diet.
In the framework of the neurorehabilitation, patient well-being plays a particularly important role. Visits and having family and friends around create a pleasant atmosphere and increase well-being while additionally furthering motivation.
At cereneo we apply the latest scientific and research findings obtained in close cooperation with internationally renowned medical research institutes. This comprises the latest therapy and treatment methods as well as the most modern technical training equipment.
Every patient is different and therefore treatment needs to adapt to the patients specific needs and capabilities. At cereneo treatment is based on the collaboration between therapists, nurses and physicians.
Supporting the brains self-healing abilities and re-learning functions requires training, the more personal and intensive, the more effective. Herewith our new type of treatment concept is based on three pillars:
Several risk factors increase your chance of having a stroke. Recently we summarised those you cannot control. But there are others you can control, treat and improve!

Motivation is a crucial factor for how much time and effort somebody wants to spend on a certain activity. Therefore, rehabilitative training is more effective if the patient is motivated. Learn more about the science behind this treatment strategy.
Movement deficits training is based on forced use and massed practice. We combine neuropsychological and visual training with movement training as the patient progresses.
Speech and language therapy treats all types of aphasia, dysarthria and communication disorders. At cereneo, we combine personal one-on-one therapy with group communication exercises.
