How does physiotherapy work?
Physiotherapy is based on the use of physical factors (electrical, mechanical, light-based) that act on the body. This approach activates natural processes of regeneration and adaptation, helping the body to recover on its own. All methods used comply with international standards and evidence-based clinical protocols.
We invite you for a physiotherapy consultation in Kyiv (located in the Respublika Park shopping mall). At the Doctor Sam Medical Center, physiotherapy is provided for both adults and children. Consultations are conducted by physical rehabilitation specialists and massage therapists with years of experience. Procedures are carried out in a well-equipped physiotherapy room designed with attention to patient comfort, including accessibility for individuals with limited mobility.

1. Electrotherapy – electrical impulses stimulate muscles and nerves, relieve pain, and improve blood circulation. Methods include amplipulse therapy, galvanization, and myostimulation.
2. Vacuum Galvanization – combines electrotherapy with vacuum massage to enhance blood circulation and reduce swelling.
3. Ultrasound Therapy (Phonophoresis) – ultrasound waves stimulate metabolism, promote tissue regeneration, and relax muscles.
4. Darsonvalization – used for both cosmetic and general wellness purposes. It improves skin condition and blood flow, and helps relieve muscle spasms.
