Facts.
The Asklepios Katharina-Schroth-Klinik.
The Asklepios Katharina-Schroth-­
Klinik is an orthopaedic rehabilitation centre specialized in the treatment of scoliosis and other spinal
deformities.
Our treatment follows the three-dimensional scoliosis therapy
as developed by Katharina Schroth®. This kind of therapy is
unique in the world and has been used for more than 90
years and since the end of the nineties in our modern clinic
building not far from the city centre of Bad Sobernheim in
the idyllic “Nachtigallental”.
An excellent treatment method, a comfortable atmosphere
and a highly specialized trained team with a lot of experience are waiting for our patients. The charming settings
of a region with famous vineyards in the area of the “Mittlere Nahe” known for its great diversity of landscape and
favourable climate offers best conditions for rehabilitation
and regeneration.
Convince yourself, try our diversified offer and the great
range of activities available in our region.
We are looking forward to you.

Arriving.
Being informed.
„ First impressions count – a comfortable atmosphere and a hearty way
of treating people.“
Finally here! Many of our patients
come from far away. It is a nice
feeling when arriving in our clinic­
in Bad Sobernheim and being
welcome from the beginning.
The Asklepios Katharina-Schroth-Klinik is embedded into
a harmonious landscape and attracts by its modern architecture. The interior is warm and pleasantly designed,
the team is friendly and helpful.
Our clinic offers a unique treatment in a familiar and
friendly atmosphere. You can feel that the roots of the
clinic were a family company and although it has become
larger within the Asklepios Group it was able to keep its
own identity.
Our patients get a friendly welcome at the nice reception
area. Here they get the first information about their stay
and daily tasks. Before the patient comes to our clinic the
appointments for medical, physiotherapeutic, diagnostic
as well as nursing checks have already been planned. You
feel it right away: We care for you!

beds in double and
single rooms
The Asklepios Katharina-Schroth-Klinik is one
of the largest centres worldwide, which is specialized exclusively in the in-patient treatment
of scoliosis and other spinal deformities.
In 1997 our clinic moved and started treatment
in the new clinic building in the Nachtigallental. In 2002 the building was enlarged. Thus it
was possible to accomodate 188 patients in double and single rooms. Our team works together
with our patients for a successful rehabilitation
in an area of 2.600 m².
Quality – our Demand
Our most important task is the permanent optimization of the treatment, the care and the
guidance of our patients.
We maintain a mutual exchange of information
with the health insurances, the patients themselves and their relatives. Criticism and praise
can be forwarded to our complaint management. Our acting is defined by expertise as well
as by the needs and wishes of our patients.
2.600 m2
The medical and therapeutic treatment bases on
the scientific knowledge and follows modern
standards. Quality is a dynamic process in the
sense of a permanent amelioration. Therefore
we take efforts to optimize and adapt the processes and organization structures in our clinic.

Feeling well.
Staying in the Clinic.
Lena-Miriam
„I really feel
well here.“
The success of therapy depends on
many factors. Apart from the professional work of our clinic team,
it is also very important for us that
all patients feel well from the very
beginning, as they spend much
time in our clinic besides the treatment time.
Our Rooms – perfect for Relaxing
The rooms have a cosy design. Dark flooring in wooden
optique or wall-to-wall carpets and bright wall colouring
harmonize with the modern architecture of the building.
The 106 rooms, which offer sufficient space, are equipped
with bathroom, shower and WC. Each room has a phone
and balcony.
Meeting People
In a pleasant athmosphere you can read a book from our
small library, watch TV or talk to other patients. Adult
patients can also use the dining room in the evening as a
meeting point. In our clinic we have an internet terminal
and you have access to WLAN.
8
Asklepios Katharina-Schroth-Klinik Bad Sobernheim
Being active
Train your fitness by swimming some lanes in our pool
(16 m x 8 m), by jogging on the Katharina-Schroth path not
far from the clinic, by making a long walk, by biking through
the beautiful landscape or taking part in an exciting table
tennis match.
For team players we have an area for beach volleyball. We
also have a field outside the clinic where patients can play
soccer or basketball. There is also a large hobby room, where
you can do creative works with the help of our experienced
team.
Comprehensive Care
We offer free-time activities for
young patients five days a week.
A free-time program is organized
daily for all patients by an expert
team.
We organize trips and guided tours
to close cities like Mainz, Bad
Kreuznach or Idar-Oberstein known
as the town of precious stones.
For more information please see
page 16.
Having a good Time
Our patients get 5 meals per day: breakfast, Müsli (cereals
during break in the morning), lunch, fruit (during break in
the afternoon) and dinner in form of a buffet. Additionally,
we offer nutritional guidance.

„ A high medical standard for
a professional therapy“
Successful.
The Scoliosis Intensive
Rehabilitation.
A multi professional treatment is
essential in order to obtain a successful rehabilitation of spinal deformities with long lasting effect.
Besides the comprehensive medical
and diagnostic initial examinations
also the diagnosis by the physiotherapist at the beginning (with a
special diagnosis of the scoliosis
and deformity) is the basis of further
physiotherapeutic proceedings.
Medical Service
Physicians from different medical fields are working in the
medical team of our clinic: Dr. med. Kay Steffan, the Senior
physician (Medical Director), specialized in orthopaedics
and sports medicine, chirotherapy and social medicine with
many years of experience in conservative scoliosis treatment,
a physician for internal medicine, a paediatric physician
as well as other physicians.
This medical team has solid knowledge in the conservative
treatment of spinal deformities. The comprehensive continued training and the specializing in the conservative therapy
of scoliosis guarantees a qualified treatment of all patients
on a high medical level following the latest scientific knowledge.
Nursing and Diagnostics
The members of our nursing team are examined nurses.
Their task is to respond to the demands of our mainly adolescent patients with spinal deformities. Our nursing team is
available 24 hours per day. As we have a lot of young patients
also educational work is important. The daily duties of our
nursing team are the individual care of our patients, who are
sick and must stay in bed as well as the realization of the
orders given by the physicians. The control of the brace
wearing time is also among the daily duties of our nursing
team.

The Three-Dimensional Scoliosis Therapy
The basis of our intensive scoliosis rehabilitation is the three-dimensional scoliosis therapy
according to Katharina Schrothwith therapy
standards which have been tested and developed
for decades. This treatment method respects
the feedback mechanisms especially the awareness for posture and movement. Patients
exercise under the supervision of physical
thera­pists to improve posture by reduction of
the asymmetrical loading and the imbalance.
Correct breathing is a basic part of the Schroth
therapy. The idea is to affect the typical scoliotic breathing patterns and help to correct the
rotation and side deviation of the spine. During
the functional and individual training sessions
patients perform the expansion of the collapsed
trunk areas.
The first week of therapy is regarded as a learning stage and is to give knowledge about the
12
Asklepios Katharina-Schroth-Klinik Bad Sobernheim
individual curve pattern and anatomical deviations and develop an individualized exercise
program.
During the exercise program of the following
treatment weeks the patients learn to be aware
of the wrong habitual posture and correct this
posture consciously and maintain it also in
strainful situations in everyday life. The scoliosis therapy is realized mainly in groups guided
by physical therapists or in individual training
sessions supervised by a physical therapist. The
size of the group depends on the indication and
the kind of exercises which have to be learned
and trained.
This exercise program is very intensive and can
only be learned during an in-patient treatment.
In this way we can guarantee many and intensive hours of therapy. The aim of the in-patient
rehabilitation program is the straightening of
the curves and the muscular stabilization as
well as to teach the patients how to exercise
correctly and to enable them to perform these
exercises by themselves at home.
Curve progression should be prevented and
minor functional curves should be corrected.
Patients should develop an awareness of cor-
rect posture to avoid deterioration of the curvature in everyday life.
Our program trains how to support postures in
standing and sitting positions in daily life to reduce strain on the spine and trunk, thus aiming
at a reduction of the load on the main curve.

Pain Therapy
Patients who suffer from pain get pain therapy which is ordered by the treating physician.
Pain therapy which takes place in small groups
or is given individually, consists of different
components. There is the therapy which follows
the methods of Katharina Schroth and respects
the individual pain, which is also alleviated
by the care of our psychologists. Other components are physiotherapeutic techniques as
for example manual therapy, PNF (activation
and strengthening of supporting muscles),
MC Kenzie and Brügger (stabilizing technique
to reduce painful strain).
Occupational Therapy
Our occupational therapy concept is realized in
small groups or in an individual therapy:
Supporting and training of self-competence
for a correct posture and movement in professional life (at work).
Further Offers
Recognizing typical strainful situations at
work or at home.
Acting and finding solutions to organize an
ergonomic working place (working place
training).
Recognizing how patients can get support
and strain reduction in everyday life.
Becoming aware of the relations which exists
between posture and pathophysiolgic reactions due to strain and pain.
Training of motorical capabilities to be able
to respond to the demands of everyday life.
Testing of certain jobs and daily situations (for
example work in the office and household).

The Asklepios Katharina Schroth Spinal Deformities Rehabilitation Centre­
provides training courses in German and English language for physical
therapists and physicians to become a certified Schroth Therapist.
After a successful written and practical exam the participants are authorized
to apply the three-dimensional scoliosis therapy according to Katharina
Schroth. They are admitted to the international list of Schroth therapists.
The cooperation with these therapists creates a network which makes
it possible to continue this specific treatment on an out-patient basis
before ord after the rehabilitation.
Scoliosis Symposium
Our clinic organizes regularly symposiums about spinal deformities and
treatment. Experts from our clinic and international professionals inform
about interesting subjects and new treatment concepts. Physicians,
physical therapists, orthopaedic mechanics and patients can exchange
their knowledge and experience.
Training for young pepole who begin their
professional life.
Creating an awareness and the capability of
changing typical postures when learning at
school and doing homework.
Training to get a body feeling.

Being active.
The Free-time Program.
Alexander
„There is always action here.
Boring? - No way!“
The organization of an active freetime is very important and completes the medical and physiotherapeutic treatment. For us it is
essential that patients are balanced,
creative and are able to have fun.
Games and Fun – the Free-time Program for our young Patients
We offer a supervised free-time program for our young
patients from Monday to Friday. During this time the
children can play, do handicrafts, read or take part in outdoor activities. A specially trained team takes care of the
children and encourages them to do something together.
Active and creative – Organized Free-time for all
In the evening of all weekdays and at the weekends patients
have different possibilities to spend their free-time individually.
The team who is responsible for organizing the free-time
always comes up with new ideas for those who want to
spend their free-time actively, for example by doing sports,
by hiking, taking part in competitions, playing social games
or other activities and for those who choose more creative
activities as for example doing handicrafts.
Indoor and outdoor – enough Space for spending Free-time
Our patients have enough rooms and areas to be able to
spend free-time actively. They can use two large rooms provided for free-time, an indoor pool, tables for playing table
tennis, a place for playing beach volley ball, a field for soccer
and basket ball.
Our young patients can regularly watch films for children
among others blockbusters. In front of our big screen they
nearly get the feeling of being in a cinema. They can take
part in the public viewing of important sport contests or
karaoke and disco nights and get raised up by the euphoria.
Our team also organizes beauty sessions or inform about
many interesting subjects.
Just leaving for a While – Excursions to the Surrounding Areas
Enjoying free-time together with others makes much more
fun, for example during guided tours through the vineyards
and woods around Bad Sobernheim. We also organize
excursions and visits. The programs which are thoroughly
set up by our team are highlights and are widely accepted
by the patients.
The region has a lot to offer. For more information please
see the next two pages.

for example Germany’s first barefoot path. While walking successively on grass, mud, sand, stones and a dexterity parcours
you get to a ford and cross the river Nahe. You can also cross the
Nahe via a wooden bridge and get back to the starting point by
using a 40 m long suspension bridge. It is also possible to cross
the river “Nahe” in a small boat by steering it yourself. An other
highlight is the open air museum situated very close to the Clinic. Many historic buildings give impressions of 500 years of life
in Rhineland-Palatinate. Many miles of bike tracks in a wonderful nature can be found in the valley of the river “Nahe”.
Where Saint Hildegard lived – The Abbey on the Disibodenberg
The ruins of the abbey can be seen on the top of the Disibodenberg embedded in the charming landscape between the “Glan”
and “Nahe” rivers. The abbey is surrounded by a romantic
park (created by Johann Metzger, the famous garden architect
of Heidelberg), from which you have a wonderful view over
the landscape. Here, Saint Hildegard began to write down her
visions which are still of great importance for many people.

On Rails – Draisine tour on the Banks of the river “Glan”
At a certain time the railroad between “Altenglan” and
“Staudernheim” was no longer used. The distance of 40 km
can now be covered by carriages on rails (Draisine) designed
for two or more pepole. The carriages must be move by hand
or pedals. The rails lead through a very enchanting landscape. There are many stops, from where you can discover
