Baltic Coast Rehabilitation Clinics
The main goal of medical rehabilitation is to restore or improve a patient's ability to work—and, in turn, their quality of life. The natural and climatic conditions make the Baltic coast an ideal health destination. Rehabilitation clinics have therefore been established in numerous Baltic seaside resorts and health resorts.

Naturally, many rehabilitation clinics on the Baltic coast specialize in conditions for which the coastal climate has particularly beneficial effects. These include upper respiratory tract disorders and skin conditions. The Baltic coast is also an especially suitable setting for mother-and-child clinics, which is why so many are located there.
As people take greater responsibility for their own health, rehabilitation clinics are increasingly developing services for self-paying patients. For several years, there has been a growing trend towards combining preventive health care with rehabilitation. Closer cooperation between rehabilitation clinics and hotels is also part of this development. One example is the collaboration among the Usedom rehabilitation clinics under the name Reha-Verbund Usedom, through which the clinics on the island have pooled and combined their services.
