CLINIC

-

When actors like Matt Damon or Chris Hemsworth –well known for their performanc­es in action movies in which their physical appearance is so important– choose a specific gym to stay in shape, it means that the place chosen is able to cater to the most demanding customers.this is the case of Osasun Sport, a multi-disciplina­ry rehabilita­tion and personal training clinic managed by Sergio Sukunza and chosen by Hollywood actors to sculpt their body during their stay in the Basque Country.

Visits by famous people are now commonplac­e at Osasun Sport: actress and model Elsa Pataky recently stopped in at the facility,and soccer players like Sergio Canales andwillian José get ready for their games there throughout the year.the clinic’s blended facility/home programs allow for patients to continue their exercises from home after a preliminar­y diagnosis.thus, the clinic receives clients from America and all over Europe.the Mexican soccer player Héctor Moreno, the handball player and world champion Julen Aguinagald­e, and other profession­al athletes like Gerónimo Rulli and Alberto de la Bella visit Osasun Sport periodical­ly to prevent injuries and optimize their physical performanc­e.

The center is a leader in terms of recovering from spine conditions, and it is specialize­d in herniated disks. In addition to that, the facility has also developed novel techniques to modify the changes made in certain areas of the central nervous system in relationsh­ip with pain. Therefore, the profession­als at the center use strategies on a sensory, motor, and cognitive-behavioral level, reducing the disability and causing the patient’s fear of movement to go down while likewise recovering lost patterns of movement and lost muscle ability.

The injury rehabilita­tion programs include altered motor pattern corrective techniques featuring laser training, biofeedbac­k, motor imagery training, mirror therapy, local vibration therapy, texture discrimina­tion, gradual exposure to pain-triggering stimuli, and –lastly– return to physical activity and sport. As the center’s profession­als are pioneers in applying the latest techniques stemming from advances in neuroscien­ce, injury rehabilita­tion, and chronic pain treatment, it’s no wonder that Jason Bourne and Thor have chosen Osasun Sport to get into shape.
