Physiotherapy is the science that studies the mechanisms of action of physical factors such as massage, physical exercise, wrapping, water, light, heat, electricity, and their use for treatment, recovery and prophylaxis in treating human body disorders.

Since the 1990s, with the radical change in aesthetic criteria, physiotherapy has also made a tremendous boost in the treatment of adipose tissue, skin and generally body aesthetics. The emergence of new interdisciplinary branches that use all the means of physiotherapy and nutrition to achieve targets (slimming, multivitamin toning, skin toning, cellulite) has boosted investment in the field. Reshaping, Cellulite Treatment, Slimming, Wellness, Spa, etc. are the new stars of the moment that respond to patients' demands.

Orthopedics is a branch of surgery focusing on the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of musculoskeletal system injuries.

The orthopedic physician deals with musculoskeletal system injuries. These include:

• Diagnosing the injury
• Treatment requiring medicines, immobilization or surgery
• Recovery, by recommending specific exercises that help restore mobility, tonicity and the function of the musculoskeletal system

Neurology is the branch that deals with the diagnosis, treatment and recovery of people suffering from nervous system disorders.

Within our clinic, neurology is a necessary branch in order for the patient to recover completely.

Rheumatology is a branch of internal medicine, which deals with the detection, diagnosis, treatment and recovery of patients with non-surgical diseases of the locomotor system. These conditions are usually painful, acute or, most of the times, chronic, which prevent the proper functioning of the locomotor system and are generally called rheumatism or rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases.

The main groups of diseases that rheumatology deals with are the following:

• degenerative diseases caused by degeneration and wear of some joints or mechanical causes: limb osteoarthritis (gonarthrosis, coxarthrosis), spondylosis, lumbar disc herniation.
• conditions caused by the presence of crystals in the joints or tendons: gout, pseudogut, articular chondrocalcinosis, tendinous calcification disease.
• peripheral and non-degenerative inflammatory disorders: tendinitis, bursitis, capsulitis, entezite, epicondylitis, fibromyalgia, Dupuytren's syndrome, cervical and brachial neuralgia, scapular humeral periarthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome and other upper and lower limb syndromes
• joint infectious diseases caused by the presence of germs in joints: Lyme disease (boreliosis), gonococcal arthritis, tuberculous arthritis (osteo-articular TB) and other infectious arthritis.
• metabolic disorders: osteoporosis, osteomalacia.
• inflammatory, autoimmune disorders that are generally observed in systemic diseases: acute articular rheumatism, reactive arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, polymyositis, dermatomyositis, Schönlein-Henoch syndrome, vasculitis

Neurosurgery is a branch of surgery that deals with brain operations and other interventions on the nervous system, the nervous system of control that regulates activities in the body. Brain operations are generally extremely delicate and involve a complicated series of sophisticated techniques, equipment and technology.

Modern neurosurgery tends to deal especially with injuries such as head injury, limbs, bullet wounds, or the penetration of a shrapnel, as well as tumors or different excrescences. It is also used to treat cardiovascular cerebral attacks and haemorrhages, blocked and compressed nerves and congenital abnormalities.

Spinal problems are more serious because the backbone transmits nerve messages across the lower back of the body. The orthopedic surgeon joins the surgeon's team in column operations. Some patients remain with limbs cut off from accidents. If surgeons consider reimplanting in the team to perform the surgery, a neurosurgeon will be included. It is responsible for the reimplantation of the nerves, so that there is a chance for the patient to regain sensitivity and to use as much as possible the muscles in the affected area. For this and for many other aspects of neurosurgery, microsurgery is now an essential technique.

The most delicate and challenging part of a neurosurgeon's work is brain surgery. After entering the skull, the neurosurgeon works quickly and efficiently to treat injuries. Abnormal blood vessels are linked or removed. Bleeding is stopped. In the case of a skull fracture, the bone fragments are removed or glued back and the brain tissue underneath is examined to detect possible injuries. When a part of the skull has to be removed or severely damaged, it can be replaced with light plastic or light metals such as titanium. These plaques are screwed into the skull by the neurosurgeon and the leather strip is stitched back to cover the plaque.

After various types of neurosurgical interventions, patients benefit from full physiotherapy and special exercises. Sometimes the nerves grow up again in different connections, so when a person tries to move a finger or a member in one direction, it moves in the opposite direction. Therefore, the patient must sometimes relive the movements and where the sensations come from. Neurosurgery can have amazing successes, such as the removal of paralysis or the recovery of the senses.

Diabetes mellitus is a syndrome characterized by elevated blood glucose (hyperglycemia) and metabolic imbalance.

The hormone called insulin allows the body's cells to use glucose as a source of energy. When insulin secretion is insufficient or when insulin does not fulfill its role in the body, the condition is called diabetes. Diabetes can be kept under control by careful diet and weight monitoring and by exercise as a supplement to medical treatment.

All types of diabetes have similar symptoms and complications. Hyperglycaemia can lead to dehydration, and uncorrected for a period of weeks or months, to ketoacidosis. Long-term complications ("tardive") are vascular and neurological. Vascular problems are of two types: macrovascular and microvascular; macrovascular ones are cardiovascular disease (stroke, angina) and stroke (stroke); microvascular problems are diabetic nephropathy (serious kidney disease) and diabetic retinopathy (a problem that involves a continuous and sometimes brutal retinal impairment, which can lead to blindness). Microvascular nature is also the impotence caused by uncontrolled diabetes, as well as some of the problems of the diabetic foot, which is manifested by a lethargic wound healing on the extremities, repeated and difficult to treat infections, amputation risk gangrene, etc. Another category of late complications of diabetes is neurological, diabetic neuropathy. This is manifested by the loss of sensation, sensation, in the lower limbs (feet) and neuropathic pain (sensations of pain, burning, standing, without immediate external causes); Neurological complications also have, at least in part, a microvascular etiology.

Nutrition is the science that interprets the interactions between nutrients and other substances in food (eg phytonutrients, anthocyanins, tannins, etc.) in relation to the maintenance, development, reproduction, health and disease state of an organism. Includes food intake, absorption, digestion, biosynthesis, catabolism and excretion.

The diet of a body is what it eats, which is largely determined by the availability, processing and palatability of food. A healthy diet includes food preparation and storage methods that protect against nutrient oxidation, heat or percolating, and reduce the risk of food poisoning. Registered dietitian nutritionists are qualified health professionals to provide safe, evidence-based dietary advice including analysis of what is eaten, detailed nutritional health analysis, and a personalized nutritional treatment plan. Also, dietitians provide prevention and treatment programs at jobs, schools, and similar institutions. Registered dietitians are health professionals who also provide dietary advice on the role of nutrition in chronic diseases, including possible prevention or remedy by addressing nutritional deficiencies prior to drug use. An inadequate diet can have a detrimental impact on health, causing ill-health such as blindness, anemia, scurvy, premature birth, dead fetus and cretinism; conditions that put health at risk such as obesity and metabolic syndrome, as well as common chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis.

Physiotherapy is the medical branch that treats conditions using physical agents, such as electricity, magnetic fields, sound and temperature.

Physiotherapy helps soothe pain, speed up physical recovery, improve and maintain muscle tone.

The most frequent therapies are:

• electrotherapy (pain relief, anti-inflammatory, muscle relaxant, blood circulation regulation, bone and joint tissue repair)
• ultrasounds (pain relief, muscle relaxant and vasodilatory and is used successfully in athletic recovery and against rheumatism)
• Laser therapy (anti-inflammatory, pain relief, muscle relaxant, anti-inflammatory).
• the Magnetodiaflux generator of magnetic fields (articulary and periarticulary anti-inflammatory, sedative, decontracting massage)
• Laser therapy
• paraffin
• pulse electromagnetic (short-wave) energy therapy
• vacuum therapy (blood circulation and lymphatic unlocks thus achieving cellulite tissue oxygenation blocked. toxic metabolites is accelerated both by draining lymphatic capillaries but also leading both to eliminate fat and tone the skin.)
• electrovacuum therapy (combination therapy is electro / vacuumterapie)
• lymphatic drainage (immune system stimulation, lymph nodes, lymph circulation dynamics in the intercellular spaces and lymph flow acceleration and quick elimination of toxic wastes)
• Galvanic bath, indicated in: spondylosis, neuralgia, polyneuritis, non-paralytic poliomyelitis, conditions increase or decrease in efferent and afferent nerve irritability

The team of physiotherapy specialists provides consultation and treatment for a wide range of conditions, using the latest technology, in order to give our patients development, maintenance and recovery treatments for their individual physical and motor capacities.

Our specialists will establish during the consultation the customized treatment that your condition requires.

Kinesiotherapy is a branch of medicine that focuses on therapy through movement. The treatment is a set of exercises tailored to each patient’s condition in order to achieve medical recovery. The goals of this type of treatment are:

Diseases of the spine:

• discopathies
• spondylosis
• scoliosis, kyphosis, lordosis
• Ankylosing Spondylitis
• posstraumatice and postoperative sequelae

Diseases of limb joints:

• rheumatic including coxarthrosis, gonarthrosis
• postoperative trauma (sprains, fractures, hip and knee prostheses, meniscal injuries, postoperative LIA)
• after prolonged immobilization
• suffering periarticular including bursitis, trends, periarthritis

Neurological disorders resulting motor deficits:

• hemiparesis after stroke, paraparesis, tetra
• cause peripheral nerve paresis different (sciatic nerve, cubital nerve)

Diseases of child development

• gymnastics for children with congenital or acquired disorders (disorders of the spinal static-kyphosis, scoliosis, disorders of the foot flat foot static var quin, genu varus / valgus, growth disorders, hemiparesis)
• congenital / acquired, rickets; or other neuromotor deficits

Kinesiotherapy is recommended for the following conditions: congenital malformations, rheumatism, neurosurgery or orthopedic post-surgery recovery, kyphosis, scoliosis, lordosis. The customized recovery plan is made by a kinesiotherapist under the guidance of the doctor who prescribes the treatment. The program of exercises is tailored to the patient’s age, physical condition or illness. These special methods will help you recover your normal mobility and regain confidence in your own capacities.

The medical massage is a therapeutic method based on a series of manual or mechanical movements/maneuvers applied to the soft parts of the body (skin, subcutaneous muscle tissue, muscles, lymphatic and blood vessels, internal organs). Massage is used to complete the other therapeutic procedures in order to alleviate certain conditions. We provide both therapeutic massage using anti-inflammatory gel and several types of relaxation massage. Our personnel is trained to provide the highest quality massage. The massage is a crucial part of the medical recovery procedures and it has multiple positive effects on the body:

• improving blood flow and nutritional exchanges
• rebuilding of injured tissues
• increasing muscle flexibility
• pain relief
• elimination of toxic substances from the body
• boosting muscle tonus
• removing muscle fatigue
• alleviating stress and insomnia
• attenuation of headaches
• anxiety reduction
• reducing depression and negative moods
• correcting the body’s posture
• relearning coordination and balance

Acupuncture is a treatment method more than 5000 years old, which occupies a special place in the realm of traditional medicine. Acupuncture therapy has its origins in the traditional Chinese medicine. Chinese philosophers believed that the human body has several energy centers and that some diseases can be cured by activating these centers.

According to the principles of Chinese medicine, diseases are the consequences of energy blockages. The acupuncture treatment involves the stimulation of specific points along the skin close to the energy centers. The main purpose of acupuncture is balancing the body’s functioning through the energetic recovery of various organs. Moreover, it has been proved that acupuncture releases endorphins (hormones that have an analgesic effect) in the central nervous system, thus soothing pain. The acupuncture therapy is used mainly as an adjunct of classic treatment methods. It is recommended for inflammations, spasms, pain, allergies, rheumatism, anxiety and depression, conditions of the digestive tract, chronic hepatitis etc. At the Valpet Med clinic, the acupuncture sessions are carried out by experienced doctors. They use a different needle insertion procedure, while the time the needles spend piercing the skin depends on the patient’s illness. The patients are perfectly safe in our clinic and we are very strict regarding the hygiene norms. The needles are either single use or sterilized after each use. The treatment sessions are held in the special acupuncture room, which is designed to provide both privacy and a relaxing environment.
