Rehabilitology

The Institute of Clinical Rehabilitology is a specialized medical and research institution based in Tula, Russia, that focuses on the surgical treatment of orthopedic disorders. Founded in 1991 by Dr. Valerij Borisovich Ulzibat, the institute is renowned for developing and implementing the Ulzibat method, a unique surgical technique known as phased fibrotomy. This minimally invasive procedure is designed to eliminate muscle contractures and pain syndromes, particularly in patients with infantile cerebral palsy (ICP) and other neuromuscular conditions. The institute operates as a surgical one-day hospital and has performed thousands of operations for patients globally, supported by a portfolio of patented medical inventions. Beyond clinical practice, the organization conducts extensive research, contributing significantly to the field of rehabilitation medicine through numerous published papers and doctoral theses.
