WELCOME TO THE LEUKERBAD CLINIC
Our professionals speak...
We are pleased to welcome you to our clinic’s website. We know that visiting a clinic or hospital as a patient or visitor is not always a pleasant experience. However, rest assured: we are human beings like everyone else, despite our white coats!
Our goal is to welcome you not as a patient but as our guest. As such, you should be able to feel at home in our establishment. We want to support you in your efforts with respect, kindness and empathy. We will do our best to provide you with effective treatments that will allow you to regain confidence in your physical and mental capacities. We will be there to support and motivate you, to listen to you and to reassure you.
As a compassionate, people-oriented clinic, we seek to build a sense of trust that will make you feel right at home.
Your goals are important to us
Patients and visitors
At the Leukerbad Clinic, patients are not looked at as simply a sum of their psychological and physical characteristics but rather as whole human beings with their individual temperaments and goals. The clinic and its exceptional environment offer the ideal setting for the realisation of these goals.
THE PILLARS OF OUR THERAPY
Movement, nutrition and thermal waters
Restore movement to allow autonomy, regardless of the level of training. According to this motto, the clinic has developed a programme that alternates between active and more passive exercises according to each individual’s state of health.
Numerous observations of the positive effects of chrono-nutrition on inflammatory diseases have led the clinic to establish this nutritional philosophy as one of the pillars of its therapy programmes.
Recognised for their therapeutic properties during Roman times, the thermal waters of Leukerbad are naturally warm, relieving joint pain and providing relaxation and well-being.

What our guests say
A driver from the Leukerbad Clinic picked me up from the hospital where I had my operation and was very attentive to my comfort during the journey. As you approach Leukerbad, you really get the feeling of leaving your worries behind. The place is magnificent and the microclimate is very stimulating.
The care is really comprehensive; even the lymphatic massage is unique and swimming in the impeccably clean thermal water offers real benefits. The entire staff are very helpful and respectful.
The facilities, bathrooms and beds are modern and suitable for people in rehabilitation. Also, the master paintings in the corridors of the clinic add a particular sense of refinement that fills me with joy.
