Focus of Treatment
The core aim of inpatient rehabilitation at Rehaklinik Zihlschlacht is to help patients maintain and improve their quality of life, independence, and participation in social life. Upon admission, individual rehabilitation goals are established in close collaboration with the patient and the interdisciplinary treatment team.

Functional therapies, primarily including physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and neuropsychology, are designed to reduce existing symptoms and their resulting impairments, or prevent them from worsening. Inpatient rehabilitation at the facility can effectively address functional challenges such as impaired mobility, spasticity, ataxia, dysarthria, dysphagia, and bladder disorders. It also provides vital support for coping with the illness and the psychological consequences of the disease.

Fatigue is a common and challenging symptom, affecting up to 90% of individuals with MS. The clinic holds specialization in the diagnosis and interprofessional treatment of fatigue. Various complementary therapies may also be integrated into the treatment plan. The aim is to empower patients to learn optimal strategies for managing stress, developing personal resources, and strengthening resilience and self-efficacy.

Another key focus at Rehaklinik Zihlschlacht is the treatment of spasticity. A range of treatment options is available here. In addition to physiotherapy and occupational therapy, medication may be prescribed when necessary, or botulinum toxin can be injected into affected muscles under ultrasound guidance. For pronounced spasticity in both legs, intrathecal baclofen administration may be beneficial.

The medical team at the clinic is supported by specialists from various disciplines (e.g., internal medicine, urology, ophthalmology, orthopaedics), who can be involved in therapy as needed.

Occupational therapy evaluation and counseling services are also available to further support patients.

Across all services provided at Rehaklinik Zihlschlacht, the focus remains firmly on the individual needs of patients living with MS. The aim is to ensure they feel comfortable at the clinic and benefit maximally from the wide range of therapies available, enabling them to achieve their goals with the support of the team.

Robotics Center

Clinic’s 100 m2 Robotics Center in the private ward offers a wide range of robotic and technology-assisted therapies in a spacious, bright room. Twenty-eight robotic and conventional exercise devices are available to our patients. 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.

Transcranial Pulse Stimulation (TPS)

Zihlschlacht Clinic offers Transcranial Pulse Stimulation (TPS) as an advanced therapy for mild to moderate Alzheimer's dementia. It uses targeted sound waves to activate specific brain regions, promote blood flow, and stimulate cellular recovery processes. Studies show TPS can improve cognitive function (thinking, memory, learning, orientation) and positively affect the disease's course.

The treatment is performed while sitting, using a sound probe to deliver gentle, stimulating ultrasound pulses deep into the brain. It is painless, non-invasive, and well-tolerated, potentially helping stabilize or improve mental performance.

Costs are not currently covered by health insurance (CHF 3,000 for a course of six sessions over two weeks). Patients are responsible for the fee. The Clinic's team is available to provide detailed information and help plan your treatment.

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS)

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is available as a promising therapy option at Paracelsus Rehab Clinic, particularly for patients experiencing neglect. The treatment uses targeted magnetic pulses delivered from a coil placed externally on the head. These pulses can modulate activity in specific brain areas, which helps to reduce perceptual deficits and improve the processing of sensory input. Scientific studies suggest that rTMS can help alleviate the symptoms of neglect and support the rehabilitation process.

This treatment is non-invasive and painless, and it is carefully tailored to the individual needs of each patient. It serves as a valuable complement to proven therapeutic measures, aiding in achieving the best possible progress during recovery.

The price for the complete treatment course, which consists of two stimulation sessions on two consecutive days, is CHF 1,216.00.
