About the clinic
Spinal cord injury rehabilitation is available at Loewenstein Rehabilitation Medical Center in Ra’anana, Israel. The Orenstein Spinal Rehabilitation Department is the largest of its kind in the Middle East. Prof. Dr. Amiram Catz developed the Spinal Cord Independence Measure (SCIM), adopted by the International Spinal Cord Society.
Specialist spinal rehabilitation
Department head Dr. Vadim Bluvshtein has over 30 years of experience in physical medicine and rehabilitation. Prof. Dr. Amiram Catz has over 40 years of experience and formerly directed the hospital from 2011 to 2019.
The department treats spinal cord, spine, and peripheral nerve injuries or diseases. It also manages back and neck pain, bladder or bowel control problems, spasticity, pressure sores, and blood pressure changes after spinal cord injury. Outpatient care is available for joint disease and parkinsonian movement disorders.
A rehabilitation physician, nurses, and therapists work together on each patient’s care. The team includes physiotherapists, occupational therapists, psychologists, social workers, and speech therapists. The department also works with consultants in orthopedics, spinal surgery, neurology, urology, and plastic surgery.
SCIM assessment and daily therapy
During the first days of admission, the team assesses the patient’s function and potential for improvement. It uses SCIM and SCI-ARMI, two tools developed at the department. At a 2006 conference in Boston, 94% of professionals chose SCIM as the best development of its kind.
Patients receive a structured plan with at least 3 therapy sessions each day. The treatment schedule and length of stay depend on individual needs. Rehabilitation is offered through inpatient care or a day hospital, with in-person and online consultation and treatment options.
Inpatient, day-hospital, and follow-up care
The outpatient clinic provides follow-up and care for spinal, nerve, and joint conditions, including related complications. Patients can also stay in full-board, hotel-style accommodation with an accompanying family member.
To begin, patients can send updated medical records for review by a rehabilitation physician. The physician assesses suitability, suggests a stay length, and sets initial rehabilitation goals. Request a consultation through Bookimed to explore available care options.

Loewenstein hospital Rehabilitation center: more details about the clinic
Israel, Ra'anana
History of Israel is a dramatic. For more than half a century, the Jews lead their war: first the foundation of their own state and then for its conservation. In this case, war is the constant fighting with their consequences: death, destruction, contusions and wounds. In 1958 Loewenstein center was founded for persons who have suffered during the military conflicts. It has the purpose of recovery and return to normal life of soldiers with amputees and other injuries of constant war. Much of that was designed for paramilitary purposes, soon the rehabilitation center began to take civil visitors. Today it is a multifield hospital which offers its care to all people who need to recover from serious accidents, injuries, illnesses, operations, including foreigners.
Loewenstein center is a large medical complex:
- About 300 concurrent hospitalizations
- 12 000 hospitalizations in hospital for a year.
- 100 paramedics, 200 nurses and 47 doctors.
Doctors returned to relatively normal life 80% of patients with post-traumatic syndrome, 92% of stroke, 56% of the brain injury. Medical staff are treated with patients virtually as healthy people. So, a person stops to require constantly care to themselves from others and learn to take care of himself. This is probably affected the military factor and the military rigor. If the patient can do something himself, a nurse or a doctor will not help him and motivate to do by himself. Doctors are used medical and psychological methods to return a person to the conditions that preceded the accident, injury, illness, or injury. Someone can say that such techniques are too rigid, but they work and show good results.
Loewenstein Rehabilitation Center restores patients after:
- strokes
- damages of spinal cord, brain, limbs
- post-traumatic stress syndrome
- severe diseases.
Infrastructure of the center includes:
- Two neurological departments
- Department of Pediatrics
- Day hospital
- Department of traumatic brain injury
- Orthopedic department
- Department of spinal cord injury
In addition, a russian translator is an available for the russian-speaking patients, so doctors are treated each patient individually and successively. Full rehabilitation of Loewenstein hospital is a reality and not a fantasy.

מוסרת חוות דעת מאוחרת מאת המטופל לשעבר ששמו - ישראל כספין - היה מאושפז לאחר אירוע מוחי. ישראל רוצה להודות אם כי באיחור, למלאכיות בלבן ממחלקת פיזיותרפיה ומחלקת ריפוי בעיסוק.
