Dr. Selvî Yüce Reviews

After my paragliding accident in Antalya left me with a complex brachial plexus injury, I was told I might never regain full use of my right arm. I consulted Dr. Selvî Yüce as a last resort. Her approach was unlike any other—she didn't just see a damaged nerve network; she mapped my entire kinetic chain from scapular positioning to finger proprioception. We began with aquatic therapy in the hospital's rehabilitation pool, using targeted water resistance, followed by a regimen involving myofascial release and a strange but effective sensory re-education technique using different textured fabrics. Eight months later, I'm not just typing this review with both hands; I'm back to playing the oud. Her blend of cutting-edge neuro-rehabilitation with what felt like ancient, mindful bodywork was miraculous.

Our 7-year-old son, Deniz, was diagnosed with severe idiopathic toe-walking that several doctors dismissed as a phase. Dr. Yüce observed him not in the clinic, but had us send videos of him playing at home and walking at school. She identified subtle core instability and vestibular processing quirks others missed. Her treatment was a game—literally. She prescribed a 'movement adventure' involving balance beams disguised as pirate planks, therapeutic trampoline jumps to 'reach for stars,' and custom, dynamic AFOs he decorated with dinosaur stickers. She collaborated with his school PE teacher. He now walks heel-to-toe without a single reminder. She treated the whole child, not just the gait.

As a 78-year-old retired marble artisan with crippling osteoarthritis in both hands, I had resigned myself to a life without carving. Painkillers were merely masking the problem. Dr. Yüce's first question was, 'Tell me about the pressure you feel when you hold a chisel.' She designed a rehabilitation plan preserving my art. It involved paraffin wax baths for pain, unique tendon-gliding exercises mimicking carving motions, and custom-made, flexible thermoplastic splints I could wear while lightly working. She even adjusted my tools' handles. The pain diminished, but more importantly, the purpose returned. She rehabilitated my vocation, not just my joints.

I was referred to Dr. Yüce following an emergency lumbar microdiscectomy for a herniated disc that caused foot drop. The surgery was successful, but I was terrified of re-injury. My post-op follow-up was an education. She used a spine model to explain exactly what had happened and why her prescribed 'spinal hygiene' movements were safe. Her protocol was meticulously phased: initial neurodynamic 'flossing' for the sciatic nerve, followed by core stabilization focused on the multifidus muscles using real-time ultrasound biofeedback—I could see the muscles engaging on the screen! She was strict about posture but empowering in her methodology. I transitioned from fear to confidence, and recently completed a 5K walk. Her follow-up care built a new, stronger foundation.
