Physiotherapy — Assessment and Rehabilitation Sessions

Neo Sport Clinic's physiotherapy programme is delivered by a physician-supervised team of qualified physiotherapists using evidence-based protocols and specialist equipment not found in standard Czech physio clinics. Sessions combine hands-on manual therapy with SIRIO regenerative ultrasound, high-induction magnetotherapy, deep oscillation, and lymphatic drainage technology depending on the clinical picture. The programme covers sports rehabilitation, post-injury and post-surgical recovery, musculoskeletal pain management, women's health (pelvic floor dysfunction, postpartum), men's health (post-prostatectomy), and respiratory rehabilitation for COPD, asthma, and post-COVID patients. Athlete clients treated at the clinic include members of SK Sigma Olomouc and HC Olomouc under the care of the same team.

Physiotherapy at Neo Sport Clinic in Olomouc sits within a full sports and lifestyle medicine environment, meaning sessions are informed by — and coordinated with — the orthopaedic, rehabilitation medicine, and infusion therapy resources on the same site. The physiotherapy team is led by Mgr. Eva Vlčková and Mgr. Sabina Průchová, both working under the supervision of MUDr. Rudolf Ditmar, the clinic's rehabilitation physician. The clinic's physiotherapy equipment includes the SIRIO regenerative ultrasound system, which is used for soft-tissue regeneration and edema management; high-induction magnetotherapy for deep musculoskeletal tissue stimulation; deep oscillation for lymphatic and circulatory support; and manual lymphatic drainage using specialised devices. These modalities are combined according to the clinical presentation rather than applied as a standard package — an athlete with a grade-II hamstring tear will receive a different protocol from a sedentary office worker with lumbar facet syndrome. Sub-specialties within the physiotherapy department address a breadth of conditions that standard physio outpatients rarely cover. Women's health physiotherapy manages pelvic floor dysfunction, stress and urge urinary incontinence, postpartum recovery including diastasis recti, and fertility support through pelvic techniques. Men's health physiotherapy addresses incontinence and functional recovery following prostatectomy. Respiratory physiotherapy supports patients with COPD, asthma, and persistent respiratory impairment after COVID-19. Sport-specific rehabilitation is a particular strength. The clinic's network of team physicians for SK Sigma Olomouc (football) and HC Olomouc (ice hockey) means its physiotherapists routinely manage return-to-sport timelines for professional athletes, and those protocols are available to recreational athletes and club-level competitors as well. Typical return-to-sport milestones are tracked against sport-specific functional tests rather than calendar time alone. Pre-appointment preparation is minimal — wear comfortable clothing that allows access to the area being treated. The physiotherapist will conduct a functional assessment at the first session to establish baseline measurements and agree on a treatment plan. Session frequency depends on the condition: acute sports injuries typically require twice-weekly sessions initially, while chronic conditions may start with once-weekly and taper. Contraindications include active infection at the treatment site, uncontrolled anticoagulation (for some modalities), and specific cautions for magnetotherapy in patients with pacemakers or metallic implants — these are screened at intake.
