Robotic Rehabilitation

It constitutes the most comprehensive and advanced robotic rehabilitation department in Greece.

Lokomat

The LOKOMAT Robotic system is a gait therapy device with robotic gait orthosis that comprises of a support system at the hips and two robotic lower extremities that are individually adapted to each lower extremity. It works in conjunction with a special treadmill and a body weight support system. The LOKOMAT system is digitally controlled via a computer.

Treatment with the LOKOMAT system is based on long-term research conducted by university clinics with the help of IT specialists, engineers and electrophysiologists and is currently the most modern rehabilitation therapy. With the support of the LOKOMAT, patients learn to walk again by using two therapeutic methods (repetition and targeted training). This targeted form of treatment has been established to rehabilitate a wide range of neuromuscular disorders and spinal cord injuries. Thus, the patient walks with a normal gait right away, thus minimizing the rehabilitation time.

Patients suffering from the following conditions can take advantage of treatment with the LOKOMAT:

  • Spinal Injury
  • Stroke
  • Traumatic Brain Injury
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Cerebral Palsy

Erigo

The ERIGO device is a robotic platform that fully controls the mechanism of leg motion using special computers. It supports and facilitates the mobilization of bedridden patients, by contributing to the prevention of secondary complications, which are caused by a prolonged period of immobility (e.g. thrombophlebitis, orthostatic hypotension, lower extremities stiffness, etc.). ERIGO allows patients to come into a vertical position (90 degrees), while the lower extremities move in a normal cyclic movement operated with electronically regulated resistance via a touchscreen. Contrary to Erigo, exercise using a conventional non-robotic tilt table is a standard treatment that does not protect the patient from secondary complications in the early mobilization phase of neurological patients (sensorimotor injury).

Patients suffering from the following conditions can take advantage of treatment with ERIGO for their early mobilization:

  • Stroke
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Spinal Injury
  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Traumatic Brain Injury

Why does Diaplasis differ

  • Diaplasis Values

    Quality:

    At Diaplasis we believe that people with mobility problems should be given the opportunity to regain their utmost independence and have the best quality of life. Diaplasis believes that high quality rehabilitation remains its primary goal.

    Commitment:

    At Diaplasis we are all committed to providing our patients continuous high services with love and affection at all times.

    Dedication:

    At Diaplasis we are all dedicated to a common goal, to providing the best rehabilitation to each of our patients.

    Family:

    At Diaplasis we are all one loving family. When a new member (patient) is added, he/she will immediately feel surrounded by warmth, caring, interest and love. Not only for as long as he/she is with us, but forever.

  • Patient Experiences

    Through their efforts and special personalized rehabilitation treatments, the patients at Diaplasis have managed to reach their goal and they now raise the bar for their independence even higher.

    Their inner strength gives us the courage to continue our work; Life’s work.

  • Points that differentiate Diaplasis

    It has the most specialized scientific rehabilitation team

    All its therapeutic services are entirely anthropocentric

    It has the most modern and complete medical – rehabilitative equipment

    It is housed in the most modern and functionally designed infrastructures

    It follows and designs the most modern therapeutic methods

    It is stands by its fellow man forever, even after hospitalization

    All its functions are ISO certified (feeding according to HACCP)

    It achieves maximum recovery in the shortest possible time

    The patient is a member
