Step 1
Identifying the causes
- History (what happened), education/information about concussion provided by a concussion specialist;
- Blood circulation test (treadmill test);
- VOMS (vestibular and ocular) & neck examination;
- Psychological examination;
- Nutrition consultation.
Step 2
The creation of a customized treatment program
Based on the data from these examinations, the program is created in consultation with all medical professionals involved. The various treatments, such as cognitive physiotherapy, manual physiotherapy, orofacial therapy, medical training therapy, vestibular therapy, psychotherapy, nutrition science, tDCS, relaxation therapy, and audiovisual training are coordinated and constantly adjusted through retesting and interdisciplinary consultations.
Step 1: Identify causes
Successful treatment begins with a clear diagnosis. Therefore, we start with a comprehensive analysis to carefully identify the causes of your symptoms. This intake consists of:
- Medical and neurological history by a concussion specialist
- Providing information about the injury and the recovery process
- Psychological examination
- Nutritional consultation
- Treadmill test for blood circulation
- VOMS test: vestibular and eye examination
- Analysis of neck function
Step 2: Creating a Personal Treatment Plan
Based on the examination results, our medical and paramedical specialists prepare an individual treatment program, which may include:
- Cognitive and manual physical therapy
- Orofacial therapy
- Vestibular training
- Medical training therapy
- Psychotherapy and relaxation therapy
- Customized nutritional advice
- tDCS (transcranial brain stimulation)
- Audiovisual stimulation
During the treatment process, we closely monitor your progress. Regular evaluations and interdisciplinary consultation allow us to continuously optimize the treatment plan.
Scientifically-Based Rehabilitation
Our approach is entirely based on recent scientific insights. We work with specific training zones, carefully tailored to your capacity. We avoid the so-called “danger zone,” in which overstimulation increases.
Instead, we focus on recovery within safe and controlled zones. Through gradual and responsible exposure to stimuli, we stimulate the recovery process without overloading your body or brain.
International studies show that this method is particularly effective in the treatment of mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) and post-commotion syndrome (PCS).
Duration of the program
The entire treatment process takes about five months and is made up of three carefully coordinated phases:
- Preparation (1-2 weeks): Online intake interviews with a rehabilitation physician, psychologist and dietician. With these, we ensure an optimally tailored treatment plan.
- Intensive on-site treatment (6 weeks): You stay at our center Medifit La Sella for a focused and personalized course of treatment. The first week is dedicated to extensive diagnostics, after which treatment will start based on your profile.
- Aftercare and reintegration (3 months): Online consultations and a customized training program help you maintain the results you have achieved and successfully return to your daily life.

Reimbursement for the PCS Program
The PCS rehabilitation program is a private treatment and is not covered by health insurance providers. In some cases, partial reimbursement may be possible through supplementary insurance or a personal injury claim. Individual treatments may sometimes be reimbursed, similar to how they are covered in primary care practices. The level of reimbursement depends on your health insurer and policy conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions:
No, the flight is at your own expense. Transportation to and from Alicante/Valencia airport is included.
No, we treat a little in the over-stimulation so that recovery and improvement of symptoms occurs. The most important thing is that we treat the causes of the symptoms at the right intensity.
