What you can have done in Kaunas
In Lithuania, this area offers only physiotherapy and rehab programmes. You can choose them on their own or together with another treatment offered in Kaunas, such as a hip or knee replacement or vein treatment. Medbook's guide to rehabilitation and physiotherapy, under Treatments, explains the whole area.
Through Medbook, two rehabilitation procedures are offered only in Turkey: neurological and stroke rehabilitation, and cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation. Two more are offered in Turkey and South Korea: chiropractic and manual therapy, and acupuncture and pain-relief therapy. If you are not sure which programme you need, choose "Not sure yet" under rehabilitation and physiotherapy when you describe your case, and your results show every destination that offers a procedure in the area. The clinic looks at the details of your case before it makes you an offer.
How the trip usually goes
Physiotherapy is given in sessions, and the physiotherapist advises on how many you may need, so the length of your stay matters. When the assistant asks how many days you can spend abroad, choose the option that really fits your plans. If you combine the programme with surgery, physiotherapy is available after the procedure, and your clinic confirms in its offer how it fits into your dates.
Once you confirm an offer, you add your flight to your roadmap and then the transfer. In Lithuania, transfers between the airport, your accommodation and the clinic are arranged for you, and so is accommodation in central Kaunas for the length of your stay. A personal coordinator is there for practical questions during your trip, and aftercare is among the services. Before you travel, you can have an online consultation. When you compare offers, look at the dates and the length of the stay.
