Follow Up Treatment
The follow-up treatment is a medical rehabilitation measure that can be carried out on an inpatient basis in our clinic. It takes place after a preceding inpatient hospital stay and aims to restore and optimize health and performance: lost functions or abilities should be regained and patients should feel prepared for the demands of everyday and professional life.

Inpatient Follow-up Treatment
The follow-up rehabilitation takes place on an inpatient basis at St. Wolfgang. If necessary, the follow-up rehabilitation or follow-up treatment can last longer than three weeks. Conversely, the duration of three weeks can be shortened if the treatment goal is achieved earlier. Depending on the nature or severity of your condition and what applies to your personal case, this can be discussed in consultation with your treating medical professionals.
It is particularly noteworthy that in an inpatient follow-up treatment, the intensity of therapy and the training effect are emphasized: Our therapists can immediately address setbacks in recovery, individual issues, and specific needs, and adjust the process accordingly.
