Everything under one roof and tailored to your individual needs!
Precision that makes progress measurable is a prerequisite for successful therapy. That is why we start every successful rehabilitation program with a comprehensive initial assessment, in which we holistically record your current performance level and any deficits. A central component of this is biomechanical testing, which we use to precisely analyze movement patterns, strength ratios, and functional capacities. The data obtained serves as the basis for our criteria-based rehabilitation. Each rehabilitation plan is therefore individually tailored to your athletic goals, your medical findings, and your personal resilience. Your progress is closely monitored with regular follow-up checks, ensuring that each phase of your rehabilitation takes place at the right time - well-founded, data-based, and goal-oriented.
Physiotherapy diagnosis involves a comprehensive assessment, in which we work together to examine your symptoms, your life situation, and your goals. This is based on the biopsychosocial model, which views the human being as a whole, taking into account physical, mental, and social factors. On this basis, we develop an individual treatment plan that may include both active and passive measures. The aim is to provide you with the best possible support on your journey back to health.
Our biomechanical analyses form the basis for load-adjusted, criteria-based rehabilitation. We use state-of-the-art measurement technology to collect objective data that goes beyond subjective assessments. We use:
- Isometric and isokinetic testing for differentiated strength analysis of individual muscle groups: These provide valid data on maximum strength, strength progression, and muscular imbalances.
- Jump diagnostics (counter movement jump, drop jump, etc.) to evaluate explosive strength, leg strength distribution, and neuromuscular control.
- Back-in-action test battery, a standardized procedure for recommending a return to sport: It includes coordinative, reactive, and strength-related assessments and tests functionality in a sport-specific context.
This data enables criteria-based planning of the rehabilitation process, individually tailored to the performance level and objectives - whether for competitive athletes, ambitious amateur athletes, or patients after prosthetic fitting.
Knowledge of individual stress management is crucial for targeted training during and after rehabilitation. With the help of sports medicine performance diagnostics, we collect the physiological parameters that define your endurance performance. We use the following methods:
- Spiroergometry (respiratory gas analysis under load) to determine VO₂max, anaerobic threshold, and heart rate zones.
- Lactate testing for targeted training control and assessment of metabolic stress tolerance
- ECG-supported stress diagnostics to ensure cardiovascular function
Based on these values, we create customized training plans that are both performance-enhancing and rehabilitation-oriented. Your body sets the direction—we provide the scientific basis for sustainable performance development.
We design your rehabilitation program using the latest scientific methods and state-of-the-art infrastructure. We focus on individual, criteria-based rehabilitation. Our specialized teams for knees, shoulders, and the spine have comprehensive expertise and years of experience to provide you with the best personalized care. Thanks to their high level of expertise in treating specific injuries, combined with the use of technical aids (highlights), we offer you particularly precise and effective therapy. From individually tailored physiotherapy measures to targeted training methods - your path to peak performance is our goal.
Where rehabilitation meets athletics: the path back to the top!
At Comeback Lodge, training is not just about exercise: it is about targeted, structured development work that systematically leads back to resilience after an injury or operation. Our approach is based on an effective combination of rehabilitation and athletic training, tailored to individual goals and requirements. Immediately after surgery, the focus is initially on safely rebuilding tissue resilience. At the same time, healthy structures are maintained and strengthened through targeted training. For ambitious athletes, the next phase begins after early rehabilitation: the road back to full athletic performance.
Targeted regeneration for body and mind
At Comeback Lodge, therapeutic massage is much more than a classic massage. It is a central component of our holistic therapy concept, tailored to the individual needs of top athletes, ambitious amateur athletes, and patients who have undergone joint replacement surgery. Therapeutic massage techniques are used to relieve pain, release muscle tension, and improve blood circulation. Through targeted manual techniques, we promote tissue regeneration, support the healing process after surgery, and contribute significantly to restoring mobility and resilience.
