How to move freely without pain?
Not everyone knows that diseases of the musculoskeletal system do not go away without a trace. Patients who have undergone them are undergoing long-term rehabilitation. Lyubov Zavrazhnykh, chief physician of the Ust-Kachka resort, explains how to undergo rehabilitation of diseases of the musculoskeletal system with the greatest efficiency.
Lyubov Arkadyevna, what consequences of injuries and diseases of the musculoskeletal system can be prevented through rehabilitation?
More than 50% of patients at the Ust-Kachka resort are people with diseases of the organs of movement. Leading a sedentary lifestyle leads to the spread of this pathology. Osteochondrosis, osteoarthritis, and arthritis often overshadow the lives of our patients at any age.
Tell us about the procedures that are offered to patients at the Ust-Kachka resort.
We have developed a specialized, unique treatment program for the rehabilitation of patients with diseases of the musculoskeletal system, namely osteochondrosis, osteoarthritis, arthritis, for the prevention of joint contractures after injury and joint prosthetics. The program includes the most effective procedures, such as: "Dead Sea", mud treatment (Old Russian mud). Additional procedures enhance the effect of balneological treatment – these are procedures such as shock wave therapy, cryotherapy, hirudotherapy, manual therapy, carboxytherapy, osteopathy, interstitial electrical stimulation, underwater stretching of the spine. For those who are looking for a sanatorium with treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system at the Ust–Kachka resort, they will receive proper procedures.
Do patients strictly adhere to the developed rehabilitation program, or are the programs mostly selected individually?
A unique program has been developed for patients with diseases of the musculoskeletal system, but the selection of procedures for each patient is carried out individually. Definitely, there is no question of any "template" treatment.
What are the diagnostic capabilities of the resort?
Our patients are diagnosed at their place of residence. If necessary, we carry out diagnostics at the resort. Our goal is to restore the health of patients with diseases of the musculoskeletal system. After all, many people are now concerned about the question of how to recover from injuries, joint replacement, as well as how to recover from osteoarthritis, arthritis, and osteochondrosis.
Are there any figures confirming the positive results of rehabilitation in your sanatorium?
Of course, we constantly analyze our work. According to the results of the last 3 years, the effectiveness of rehabilitation of patients with diseases of the musculoskeletal system is more than 98%.
Is it possible to start rehabilitation if the acute phase of the disease has not passed yet?
In the acute phase of the disease, balneotherapy (mineral baths, mud treatment) is not indicated. Therefore, it is recommended to complete the course of therapeutic therapy during the period of exacerbation at the place of residence, and then come to our resort for full-fledged rehabilitation.
What kind of doctors accompany patients during rehabilitation?
Traditionally, patients are received by an attending physician who has training in medical rehabilitation. The treatment is supervised by a multidisciplinary team of neurologists, arthrologists, physiotherapists, and physical therapy doctors.
Why do you recommend that patients choose the Ust-Kachka resort if they need rehabilitation for diseases of the musculoskeletal system?
If you are concerned about diseases of the musculoskeletal system, then I recommend choosing our resort for a number of reasons: it is convenient to get to Ust-Kachka, we have a unique medical base, only highly qualified medical staff works. It also offers a friendly atmosphere and unique Ural nature, which are necessary conditions for recovery.
