The rehabilitation center offers patients a multidisciplinary therapy approach, incorporating physiotherapy and occupational therapy.
The physiotherapy is a range of stretches and exercises tailored to the needs of each patient. In combination with the use of gym and clinic equipment, this type of therapy improves overall muscle function by increasing muscle flexibility, strength and endurance.
The physiotherapy consist of:
- Gymnasium
- Manual therapy such as stretching
- Electric therapy
Occupational Therapy focuses on retraining muscle function to help patients independently perform day-to-day activities, such as eating, drinking, washing and getting dressed. In some cases YPK will prescribe mobility aides, such as arm splints, crutches, wheelchairs and braces to enable more independence for patients.
Occupancy therapy consist of:
- Upper and lower limb classes
- Daily living classes
- Cooking classes
- Garden therapy
- Music therapy
- Playground therapy
Although YPK rehabilitation services are free and are open to anyone, our focus is to provide our programs to people from underprivileged backgrounds. We encourage our wealthier patients to make a small donation to help more disadvantaged people access our services.
