MyRehab Matsuoka Hanoi

MyRehab Matsuoka is a licensed rehabilitation centre in Hanoi built around assessment, individual goal-setting and active movement. Its published scope covers musculoskeletal conditions, orthopaedic injuries, neurological rehabilitation, recovery after surgery, stroke, cardiopulmonary rehabilitation, cancer-related rehabilitation and paediatric needs. It is an outpatient centre rather than an acute hospital ward.

The organisation describes a Vietnam–Japan clinical collaboration and lists Vietnamese doctors, therapists and Japanese advisers. The most useful feature for patients is not the branding but the structured pathway: medical review, functional measurement, a personalised programme, supervised sessions, progress checks and exercises for continued practice. The centre publishes Hanoi health-facility licence 2666/HNO-GPHD/CL1.

Assessment before a rehabilitation programme

MyRehab's occupational-therapy pathway begins with medical records and a clinical examination. A doctor and rehabilitation team then assess function, discuss short- and long-term goals and design a programme. Progress is measured during treatment and the plan can be adjusted before a maintenance programme is taught for home use.

Bring operative reports, imaging, discharge letters and a current medicine list. Explain what you cannot do in daily life, work or sport rather than reporting pain alone. A useful baseline might include walking tolerance, balance, range of motion, strength, hand function, speech or swallowing, depending on the condition.

Musculoskeletal pain and spine rehabilitation

The centre lists neck and back pain, spinal degeneration, knee osteoarthritis, ligament injuries and other musculoskeletal problems. Its approach emphasises active exercise supported by physical therapy rather than relying only on passive modalities. This can include movement retraining, strength, mobility, posture and a home programme.

Persistent pain does not always match the appearance of a scan. Patients should ask what diagnosis or functional limitation is being treated, which outcome will be measured and when the plan will be reconsidered. Claims that a condition can be cured completely or that acute pain will improve within a fixed package should not be treated as a guarantee.

Sports injuries and return to activity

Published services cover ankle injuries, ligament sprains and cruciate-ligament rehabilitation, with Kinesio taping and supervised exercise among the available methods. A return-to-sport plan should rebuild strength, control, balance and sport-specific movement rather than stop as soon as pain falls.

Bring the orthopaedic diagnosis and surgical protocol if an operation has taken place. Ask which tests will determine readiness to run, jump, change direction or resume contact. Recreational athletes should describe their real goal and weekly training load so the programme is not designed only around basic walking.

Recovery after surgery or trauma

MyRehab accepts people after orthopaedic surgery, intervention or injury. Rehabilitation timing must respect the surgeon's restrictions on weight bearing, joint range, wound healing and implanted hardware. The therapy team should know the procedure date and any complication before progressing exercise.

For international patients, the safest arrangement is for the surgeon and rehabilitation provider to share a written protocol. Ask what can continue after leaving Hanoi and whether a summary can be sent to the next therapist. A package length is an administrative format, not proof that recovery will finish within five, ten or ninety sessions.

Stroke and neurological rehabilitation

The centre publishes rehabilitation for stroke and other neurological impairment. Depending on the person, this may involve movement, balance, transfers, arm and hand use, speech, swallowing and daily activities. MyRehab's team page includes technicians with physical, occupational, speech and swallowing expertise.

Families should ask how goals are prioritised, what carers will be taught and how fatigue or cognitive difficulties affect the programme. Sudden new weakness, facial droop, speech difficulty, severe headache or loss of balance is a medical emergency, not a reason to book a routine rehabilitation session.

Occupational and speech therapy

Occupational therapy focuses on practical activity: dressing, eating, writing, work tasks, transfers and other parts of daily independence. The official six-stage pathway includes clinical review, functional assessment, supervised practice, progress measurement and training for continued self-care.

Speech therapy may address communication or swallowing. Ask whether the named therapist has the relevant scope for the patient's problem and whether instrumental swallowing assessment or hospital referral is needed. Coughing during meals, recurrent chest infection, choking or unexplained weight loss deserves prompt medical evaluation.

Flat feet, scoliosis and postural measurement

MyRehab lists flat-foot and scoliosis assessment and publishes DIERS formetric 4D and pedoscan systems for optical posture, spinal-shape and plantar-pressure measurement. These tools can contribute information without replacing clinical examination or, when medically required, diagnostic imaging.

Parents should ask what finding is being monitored, how it changes management and when referral to paediatric orthopaedics is appropriate. Insoles or exercises should have a defined goal and review date. A machine-generated image by itself does not prove that a child needs prolonged treatment.

Cancer and lymphoedema rehabilitation

The centre publishes cancer rehabilitation and a lymphoedema programme using compression, manual drainage and individual exercise. These services may be relevant after breast-cancer treatment or lymph-node procedures, but swelling should first be assessed to exclude infection, thrombosis or another cause.

Ask how compression is selected and fitted, what skin checks are required and how measurements will be repeated. Redness, fever, sudden painful swelling, chest pain or breathlessness needs urgent medical review. Massage should not begin solely because an arm or leg appears swollen.

Cardiopulmonary rehabilitation

Cardiovascular and respiratory rehabilitation are included in the centre's stated scope. Exercise in these programmes should be based on diagnosis, stability and appropriate monitoring. Bring recent cardiology or respiratory reports and clarify exercise limits, oxygen requirements and warning symptoms.

Chest pain, severe breathlessness at rest, fainting or a rapid deterioration belongs in emergency or hospital care. An outpatient rehabilitation centre is suitable once the responsible medical team considers the person stable enough for planned activity.

Home rehabilitation and family involvement

MyRehab officially advertises home rehabilitation with trained technicians, periodic doctor reassessment and instruction for relatives. This can help people with substantial mobility limits or those practising tasks in their own environment. Confirm whether the service is currently available at the patient's address, travel charges and which equipment must be provided.

The family should learn safe assistance rather than become dependent on a therapist for every movement. Ask for written exercises, repetition targets and clear stop criteria. Home visits do not provide emergency or inpatient care and should not be used when the patient is medically unstable.

Two current Hanoi locations

The established centre is on the second floor of the CONINCO Building, 4 Ton That Tung, Kim Lien Ward, Hanoi. In October 2026, MyRehab also announced a new location within the HANDICO healthcare complex at 5 Thanh Cong, Giang Vo Ward, Hanoi. The new site is described as providing staged, personalised rehabilitation within a wider care network.

Confirm which branch provides the required service and whether the published clinic licence covers that site or a separate branch authorisation applies. The official website does not publish a reliable current weekly timetable for each location, so earlier Google-derived hours have not been retained.

Contact, booking and language

The official contact channels are 1900 3181, 0365 588 716 and cskh@myrehab.vn. The website has an appointment form. It is primarily in Vietnamese and does not promise routine English or Japanese-language therapy, despite the Japanese collaboration and adviser profiles.

Expatriates should request a therapist who can communicate the exercise and safety instructions in a shared language or arrange an interpreter. Rehabilitation depends on precise feedback, so language support matters for pain, dizziness, fatigue and progression decisions.

Packages, session length and cost

MyRehab publishes five-session acute-pain, ten-session general, 30–90-session long-term and 180-session family packages. It also describes one-to-one 60-minute therapy and weekly medical advice within some packages. The FAQ states that the actual cost depends on the condition and agreed plan.

Before buying a large package, ask for the initial assessment, goals, session content, reassessment points, expiry and refund or transfer rules. Published discounts should not drive the clinical duration. Insurance acceptance and payment methods were not stated clearly enough on the official material reviewed, so confirm reimbursement and invoices before treatment.

When hospital care is needed

MyRehab is appropriate for planned rehabilitation, not acute diagnosis of every new symptom. Seek urgent hospital assessment for a suspected new stroke, serious fall, loss of bladder or bowel control with back pain, rapidly progressive weakness, chest pain, severe breathlessness, fever with a hot swollen joint or limb, or a postoperative wound that is opening or infected.
