Neurological Rehabilitation after a
Traumatic Brain Injury

Back to life with Kliniken Schmieder in Germany.

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the most severe neurological impairments, caused by a serious head injury.
If you or a loved one has been affected by such an event, it is of great importance to begin intensive early neurological rehabilitation as soon as possible in order to prevent significant and lasting long-term consequences.

Since 1950, the family-run Kliniken Schmieder have stood for medical excellence and compassion in Europe, as a quality leader in neurology and neurological rehabilitation. For over 75 years, we have supported adults after a TBI on their very personal path to neurological recovery. With innovative therapy concepts, interdisciplinary teams, and genuine human empathy, we create new perspectives – tailored to each individual and always by your side.

Contact us – we’ll be happy to advise you personally.
Our International Office team is here for you if you have questions about neurological rehabilitation after a TBI, about our clinic, or if you would like to receive an individualised offer. Send us your inquiry or contact us via chat, email, or phone.

Personal. Holistic. Goal-oriented.

Our rehabilitation plan is as individual as you are.

After a TBI, in addition to initial medical treatment, a comprehensive and structured rehabilitation plan tailored to body, mind, and soul must begin as quickly as possible. We support you or your loved one step by step through several consecutive rehabilitation phases.

Early neuro rehabilitation (Phase NRP-I/NRP-S)

  • Have you or your loved one become stable and no longer require ventilation after acute treatment for a TBI?

If so, we begin this phase of early neurological rehabilitation for severely affected patients with targeted medical treatment, initial therapies, and activating nursing care. This early stimulation of muscles, senses, and movement can activate the body’s own strength and help restore lost functions.

Neuro rehabilitation (Phase NRP/M)

  • Have you or your loved one begun to regain initial signs of motor or cognitive abilities after a TBI?

If so, we begin this phase with an individually tailored neurological rehabilitation program, focusing on the recovery of everyday skills and the promotion of movement, speech, and thinking.
We focus on strengthening independence and, if possible, supporting a return to working life.

Our goal: To restore our patients’ motor and cognitive abilities, promote their independence, and open up new perspectives for their lives.

I was treated at the sleep medicine department of the Schmieder Clinics for my type 1 narcolepsy and am very satisfied overall. The sleep lab is quiet, modern, and pleasantly air-conditioned. The staff are consistently friendly and very pleasant, even when attaching the sensors. The medical care was particularly positive for me. For the first time, I truly felt like I was speaking with someone who is very knowledgeable about narcolepsy, understands my symptoms and my life situation, and doesn't just focus on the illness itself. I received comprehensive advice on treatment options, medications, employment, support services, and also on the topic of disability. Throughout, I had the impression that there was a genuine personal interest in supporting me beyond the purely medical treatment. While the medication change wasn't easy for me, it was ultimately successful. Overall, I felt very well cared for, both professionally and personally. My only major criticism is the pillow in the sleep lab – I found it really uncomfortable. My tip: definitely bring your own pillow!

5/5 stars – An absolutely fantastic stay at the day clinic! After my stay at the Schmieder Clinics' day clinic in Heidelberg, I would like to express my sincere appreciation. The rehabilitation program has made tremendous progress in terms of my health and gait! Here's a summary of the key points: Outstanding team: From start to finish, everyone was extremely friendly, courteous, and helpful. The sports and physiotherapists are fully committed. Special thanks to the nursing staff: From day one, you receive such warm and welcoming care that you immediately feel safe and at home – you're not just a number. Perfectly structured schedule: The treatments were optimally planned for me, without any downtime or boredom. The group settings were perfectly matched (neither too challenging nor too easy), and the use of the gym and swimming pool (water aerobics) was fantastic. Kitchen & service: Even my lactose intolerance and other dietary difficulties were always and without exception accommodated. Conclusion: A first-class clinic with heart and a high level of expertise. I can wholeheartedly recommend this facility in Heidelberg!

The clinic is beautifully situated on a quiet plateau in the middle of the forest. The town is only about 3 km away and can be reached via a short but steep path with an elevation gain of approximately 180 meters. Alternatively, a bus runs directly to the clinic's doorstep. The staff is exceptionally friendly, helpful, and attentive to the patients' needs. You feel competently cared for and supported at all times. Both the nursing staff and the doctors treat patients with great empathy, expertise, and discretion. The entire therapy team is highly competent, friendly, and helpful. Overall, there is a very open and welcoming atmosphere in the clinic, which makes the stay very pleasant. The meals are freshly prepared on-site, and I can consistently describe the lunches as excellent. The kitchen team puts in a great deal of effort, and you can always express your wishes regarding changes. It's important to remember that this is a clinic, not a hotel. Therefore, I cannot understand some of the critical reviews. On the contrary, the food is also outstanding! In conclusion, I would like to sincerely thank all the staff members of the clinic for their dedicated work. In my opinion, washing machines in the house would be an improvement, as dirty laundry quickly accumulates during a longer stay. Also, comfortable armchairs in the rooms would be a nice alternative to the existing office chairs. If the opportunity arises, I would very much like to return to this charming place surrounded by nature. Thank you very much.

Being able to do rehabilitation here is an absolute privilege. The impressive multidisciplinary team really takes their time for each patient and tailors the therapies to their individual needs. I found the sound therapy group, led by an incredibly friendly occupational therapist, to be particularly outstanding; it helped me tremendously in regaining my motor skills. The therapy program itself is also diverse and engaging. I had the opportunity to speak with several nurses, therapists, doctors, and even cleaning staff, and they were all warm and attentive. Even the wonderful team of dieticians was great fun to chat with. I was discharged yesterday with remarkable progress and regained abilities, and I can wholeheartedly recommend the Schmieder Clinics.

The clinic is very large, with various departments. The first impression is very positive; all the staff are very friendly and helpful. Our bike lock broke on our departure, and when we asked, they immediately and expertly helped us with a power tool. So I have to say, top clinic, top staff, top friendliness and help...Thank you!!!

I was at the Schmieder Clinic in Heidelberg from mid-November 2025 to May 11, 2026. I was admitted after a stroke and tumor surgery. I was unable to stand, walk, eat, or drink. They relearned everything there. The nursing staff is always eager to help, and the therapists have the patience of saints in teaching you everything. I have never been as satisfied as I was at this clinic and can highly recommend it. The only thing that needs improvement is the kitchen; the food leaves much to be desired. Otherwise, everything is great, and when I had to go home, I was a little sad but also happy that I could do almost everything again.

My mother, Annemarie P., was recently here for about three weeks of rehabilitation. She felt very comfortable and was 100% better afterward. The nursing staff was always there to help her, but never intrusive or restrictive. The doctors are very professional and treat the predominantly elderly patients with respect and dignity. The social services department deserves special mention for its proactive support, especially the extremely competent Ms. Beschle. The fact is, everyone here is wonderful; they care for the patients with love and dedication and simply do a fantastic job! So, thank you all again!! 🙏 🙏🙏

I would like to sincerely thank all the doctors, nurses, and everyone. I was transferred from another clinic to the Schmieder Clinic. I was seen immediately in the intensive care unit, and they performed all the necessary examinations from head to toe. They were very friendly, accommodating, and simply outstanding. If there were more stars, I would give 100! 🙏😊😊😊😊 So, thank you so much! A special thank you to Dr. Amira Al Kadri and Senior Physician Iliyan Mutafchiev! 😇👌☺️
