What is the Bobath method?

The Bobath method is an internationally recognized therapeutic approach, developed for the rehabilitation of people living with central nervous system injuries.

Developed in the 1940s by Karel and Berta Bobath, it is constantly updated thanks to advances in neuroscience and biomechanics.

It is a method based on clinical problem-solving: the therapist analyzes your movement abilities in depth, identifies the causes of the deficits, and creates a customized rehabilitation plan for you.

Each treatment aims to recover lost functions, reduce atypical movements, and promote more effective and natural motor control.

Benefits and goals of treatment

With the Bobath method, rehabilitation becomes a continuous learning process that engages both body and mind.

The goal is to restore your autonomy, confidence, and self-confidence in your movements.

Conditions treated with the Bobath method

The Bobath method is indicated for adults with neurological disorders that impair movement and coordination.

  • Stroke and Head Trauma
    Spinal Cord Injuries
    Multiple Sclerosis and Ataxic Syndromes

  • Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)

How does the treatment work?

During sessions, the therapist guides you through targeted movements and facilitation techniques that stimulate neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to adapt and create new connections.

Through observation and repetition of correct movement patterns, the body learns to regain strength, balance, and fluidity, allowing you to regain the independence you need to perform your daily activities effectively.

Types of programs and treatments

We offer two treatment modalities, both customized to your specific needs.

Local program

Regular and personalized sessions, ideal for those who wish to maintain their results over time.

Intensive program

Intensive one-week treatment with daily sessions inspired by the Bobath Concept, integrated with targeted physiotherapy and complementary rehabilitation techniques to optimize functional recovery.

For over 12 years we have been developing the most advanced program with the best experts to help you live better with Parkinson’s

Receiving a Parkinson’s diagnosis changes everything: the fear, uncertainty, and loneliness are real, and they affect not only those who are ill, but also those around them.

Alex Reed, our founder, experienced this firsthand. Diagnosed at a young age, he quickly discovered how outdated and degrading the way patients were treated was.

We believe that no one should feel like a victim: everyone can live fully, facing the disease with hope and without resignation.

At Boario, every guest becomes part of our extended family. We walk together, step by step, to achieve concrete results that improve the quality of life for you and your loved ones.

Our programs and therapies that can change your life

Personalized to your needs, our programs combine physical, cognitive, and emotional support to help you regain control, improve your well-being, and live fully with Parkinson’s.

What they say about us

  • Friendly and professional

    I have just attended a 1 week program and it exceeded my expectations hence I give it a 5 star rating. The programmes are based on proven science with neuroplasticity and neuro protection at their centre. The staff are very knowledgeable, friendly and professional and make the experience fun . Key to success of the centre is the one-to-one relationship between delegate and therapist for the duration of the program. Once you have undergone the course continuing support is provided. I will definitely be back and that says it all.

  • A fabulous week

    I left home forgetting the antidepressant, I was so busy and busy with the activities of the center that I didn’t feel the need for it; now, from the return I don’t use it then we’ll see!
