Rehabilitation (per 1 day) in Nowa Ortopedia
About the clinic
Rehabilitation at Nowa Ortopedia (Szpital Dworska) in Kraków, Poland, provides recovery programs for patients after surgery or sports injuries. The facility holds the Hipokrates Hospital of the Year 2025 award. Specialists here use objective assessment tools like the Biodex System 4 Pro to track muscle strength and recovery progress. This approach helps patients return to daily activities or sports safely.
Advanced Rehabilitation Methods
The clinic uses a mix of manual therapy and modern physical treatments. Patients can access Focused Shock Wave Therapy (FSWT) and Super Inductive Stimulation (SIS) for pain relief and healing. Other options include percutaneous electrolysis and HI-TOP Energotonic therapy. For swelling and recovery, the team uses Game Ready cold compression systems. Training involves specialized equipment like the Keiser Functional Trainer and Sigma Platform for balance. A Woodway treadmill with high cushioning helps patients start walking or running with less joint stress.
Specialized Recovery Programs
Treatment plans are tailored to specific conditions to help restore function. The medical team handles recovery for various post-operative needs and injuries:
- Orthopedic Rehabilitation: For ACL or PCL reconstructions and meniscus repairs.
- Spinal Care: Focused programs after surgery for herniated discs or stenosis.
- Joint Recovery: Treatment for rotator cuff repairs, ankle sprains, and fractures.
- Return to Sport: Functional training designed to prepare athletes for high-level activity.
Expert Physiotherapy Team
Care is led by experienced therapists who work closely with surgeons. Dr. Maciej Olszewski uses isokinetic assessments and computer foot baropodometry to measure recovery. Mgr Joanna Grobel brings over 15 years of experience in manual therapy and Kinetic Control. Mgr Michał Caba has over 10 years of experience and previously served as a physiotherapist for the Poland U-19 national football team. The team also offers home visits for patients who cannot travel and online video consultations.

Nowa Ortopedia: more details about the clinic
Specialized Orthopedic Care
The clinic treats a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions through its orthopedic and traumatology departments. Surgeons use minimally invasive techniques to speed recovery and reduce tissue damage.
- Arthroscopic knee surgery performed through 2–4 portals
- ACL reconstruction using the Internal Bracing reinforcement method
- Treatment for meniscus tears, including bucket-handle and complex radial tears
- Foot and ankle surgery for hallux valgus and plantar fasciitis
- Shoulder arthroscopy for instability and rotator cuff repair
Specialists focus on functional restoration by pairing surgery with immediate rehabilitation. Each surgical plan includes targeted physiotherapy to maintain long-term joint stability.
Hand Surgery and Neurosurgery
The facility offers advanced treatment for nerve compression and chronic hand disorders. Specialists perform endoscopic carpal tunnel release through smaller incisions. This allows faster return to activity, and the entire hospital stay typically lasts one hour.
- Microsurgical decompression of the median nerve
- Ultrasound-guided injections for De Quervain's disease
- Surgical management of trigger finger and Dupuytren's contracture
- Neurosurgical care for herniated discs and spinal stenosis
Most hand procedures use local anesthesia and absorbable sutures. This approach removes the need for casting or long-term immobilization in most cases.
Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Therapy
Nowa Ortopedia uses multipotent cells (MSCC/BMA) to treat degenerative joint diseases and sports injuries. These cells come from the patient's own bone marrow or adipose tissue. The clinic uses Hyalofast, a hyaluronic membrane that serves as a scaffold for stem cells during cartilage repair.
This regenerative approach targets early-stage arthrosis and partial ligament injuries. Multipotent cells are also given during tendon repairs to support natural tissue healing.
Pediatric Orthopedics
The hospital has a specialized unit for children's orthopedic and traumatology needs. Diagnostic services include infant hip ultrasound to screen for dysplasia. The team manages various developmental and acquired conditions in young patients:
- Limb-axis deformities such as varus and valgus
- Perthes disease and femoral head slippage
- Sports injuries and trauma in pediatric patients
At least one pediatric specialist provides consultations in English for international families.
Advanced Diagnostic and Recovery Technology
The clinic uses professional assessment tools to monitor progress and refine treatment plans. Diagnostic capabilities include digital X-ray, CT scans, and baropodometry to assess foot pressure distribution.
- Biodex System for isokinetic muscle strength assessment
- Keiser Functional Trainer for rehabilitation
- Game Ready cold compression system for post-op recovery
- Stryker HD arthroscopy columns for high-definition surgical imaging
- Woodway treadmill with high cushioning for gait training
The physiotherapy department also offers HI-TOP energotonic therapy. This advanced electrotherapy helps manage pain and stimulates tissue recovery.
Services for International Patients
The hospital supports patients traveling from abroad through specialized digital systems. English-speaking specialists are available in several departments, including orthopedics and pediatrics. The facility offers online video consultations for patients who live far from Kraków. For those unable to travel, the rehabilitation team can provide home visits within the local area.
