Rehabilitation after Stroke in Switzerland

Medically Reviewed

Learn more about our editorial process

When a Stroke condition turns life upside down, skilled rehabilitation offers vital support. During these challenging times, patients and their families need more than medical treatment alone – they need a clear path for recovery and adaptation.

Switzerland is globally renowned for its leading-edge neurological rehabilitation. Our clinics welcome individuals from around the world, offering specialized, comprehensive programs. These programs are designed to meet the unique needs and goals of each patient and restore function, enhance well-being, and support every step of your recovery journey.

Our expert teams bring dedication and genuine care to their work, integrating physical, occupational, and speech therapies with essential psychological and emotional support.

If stroke symptoms are recognized early and treatment begins within four hours, it may be possible to reopen the blocked blood vessel and prevent long-term brain damage. After the acute phase, patients should be monitored in a specialized Stroke Unit to avoid further complications and determine the underlying cause. This phase typically lasts a few days.

If the blockage cannot be reversed, rehabilitation must begin immediately—starting with essential functions like safe swallowing and sitting up. As the patient stabilizes, therapy intensifies.

Specialized centers like cereneo are dedicated to this crucial window of recovery. The first few months after a stroke offer the greatest opportunity to restore functions like mobility, speech, and cognitive abilities. Delaying rehabilitation can make recovery significantly harder.

Neuropsychology makes use of preserved abilities in order to rehabilitate and/or compensate for impaired cognitive skills. It focuses on improving:

• Memory skills
• Executive functions (i.e. multitasking, planning daily tasks...)
• Attention disorders (i.e. speed of information processing)
• Unilateral spatial neglect symptoms Several approaches are used, such as:
• Cognitive skill games
• Specific computer software tools (Rehacom, iGerip, Cogniplus®)
• Pencil-and-paper exercises
• Prismatic adaptation
• Memory notebook implementation

Speech and language therapy focuses on improving speech, voice and swallowing disorders. Diverse therapeutic activities include:

• Oral and written expression/comprehension
• Vocal exercises
• Articulation exercises
• Orofacial motor exercises
• Therapeutic diets (restoring nutrition, food texture adaptation, techniques to protect airway passage)

Our speech therapists implement alternative communication procedures to help patients improve family/friend interactions. Speech therapy also plays a key role in the recovery of facial paralysis.

The advanced therapy equipment allows patients to begin specific therapies, such as gait therapy, much earlier. The highly repetitive exercises promote motor learning and neural reorganization. Studies show that early use of this equipment improves recovery from stroke and other neurological conditions. During the rehabilitation phase, a variety of equipment is used, each with specific goals.

Twenty-eight robotic and conventional exercise devices are available to our patients, including: C-Mill®, DDrobotec System Elite, Dividat Senso, Ekso, Erigo, Lokomat, Valedo, ArmeoSenso, ArmeoSpring, Gloreha, Myro, Pablo, IVS3
