In the middle of Sweden, situated in the heart of Värmland, lies the city Filipstad – known for its cultural heritage and its beautiful and unspoiled nature. Just outside of Filipstad is the Wintergreen Center, located in the beautifully lush forest with views of distant blue mountains and clear, clean water.
These natural surroundings constitute an important part of the healing process. Hence, in addition to all conventional medical treatments, Wintergreen stresses the importance of additional therapies, offering a space for both animals and nature.
The name Wintergreen comes from the English word “Wintergreen Chickweed”, also commonly known as star flower. We have chosen this symbol because it is Värmland’s regional flower, having a strong connection with the area while also giving the feeling of hope, greenery, and warmth.
Wintergreen conducts a qualified, individual medical rehabilitation center in a soothing environment. Each guest should feel safe and involved in the communal process. Our program is conducted in the suitable surroundings of scenic Värmland. We receive medically discharged guests who have acquired brain impairments such as stroke or other traumatic brain injuries, including guests with neck or spinal cord injuries who are in need of qualified rehabilitation care and training.
