The launch of the Bach Care Rehabilitation and Cardiovascular Disease Prevention (CVD prevention) Center is just around the corner. In May 2021, Abama will open the doors to this cutting-edge tech and expert facility, unique in its class. Bach Care will offer our residents and guests the opportunity to gain a full understanding of the physical state of their hearts, and make the kinds of choices that will improve quality of health and life for years to come.
Bach Care’s medical team is led by Dr. Luis Ángel Samaniego and Dr. José Luis Zamorano, two of the top cardiologists in Europe. The team's joint experience in intensive care, critical care, and cardiology service enables them to optimally interpret cardiovascular readings and customize care and prevention for each individual.
To gain an understanding of clients’ specific needs, the Bach Care team employs the latest in cardiovascular technology. This includes, along with ergospirometry that determines the safest and most efficient cardiac activity levels, and 3D echocardiography to examine the cardiac structures, the most accurate study currently available, using the spectral detection technology of the IQON Spectral CT equipment. It is the first and only equipment of its kind in Spain. They also perform an evaluation of clients’ genetic susceptibility to cardiovascular disease.
What sets Bach Care’s CVD prevention program apart is its focus on the individual and its long-term, comprehensive advice for lifestyle habits that improve heart health. This means that anyone can benefit from their treatments, including athletes, people who have already experienced a cardiovascular event, and people looking to keep their heart healthy as long as possible.
A Bach Care program at Abama allows you to step away from the bustle of daily life and into a calming environment where you can reevaluate your priorities, validate the intrinsic importance of your health, and begin practicing habits that will yield positive, long-term results.
When the Bach Care Centre opens on the 17th of May, several programs will be available to Abama residents and guests. Their length can be dictated by the needs and desires of users, but the experience will be heightened for anyone by the idyllic setting of the resort, where stunning views over the Atlantic Ocean and Michelin-star dining make this health program into a holiday as well. Special offers will be available to Abama residents as well as guests of Las Terrazas de Abama.
