Recognition can be earned on the basis of clinical practice, educational initiatives or expertise, or clinical research in the fields of sport rehabilitation and orthopaedics, pain management, neurology, or long-term care. All Chattanooga Centers of Excellence have expertise in one or more Chattanooga physical medicine modalities or technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our latest CoE is Spain\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dacer.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DACER<\/a> clinic.

In 2019, Lucas\u2019s professional motorcycle racing career was tragically cut short when an accident left him quadriplegic.

Xavi\u2019s relationship with DACER goes back more than a decade to when he introduced its clinicians to VitalStim for dysphagia. Since then, the clinic\u2019s portfolio of Chattanooga products and associated expertise has grown to the point that it has achieved the status of Chattanooga Center of Excellence. The center now acts as a key opinion leader in its field, educating physical therapists from around Spain and Latin America, as well as providing a practical training environment for Chattanooga products.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>When Xavi visited DACER last month to present them with their certificate, he was met with an award of his own in recognition of the support he has provided them over the years. It\u2019s clear to see the admiration both parties have for one another, as well as the dedication they share for improving the lives of patients through rehabilitation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And while both awards were gratefully received, it\u2019s safe to say neither are as rewarding for their recipients as the satisfaction of seeing patients like Lucas reclaiming their freedom through movement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.djoglobal.eu\/blog_eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/gala-5.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.djoglobal.eu\/blog_eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/gala-5-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2214\" width=\"512\" height=\"342\" srcset=\"https:\/\/enovis-medtech.eu\/blog_eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/gala-5-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/enovis-medtech.eu\/blog_eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/gala-5-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/enovis-medtech.eu\/blog_eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/gala-5-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/enovis-medtech.eu\/blog_eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/gala-5.jpeg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Xavi (right) receiving his award<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"http:\/\/www.chattanoogarehab.com\/chattanooga-center-of-excellence\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a manufacturer of rehabilitation equipment, there are few things we find more rewarding than witnessing the positive difference our products can make to people\u2019s lives.
