The Institution

Three decades of neurorestorative excellence

CIREN — the Centro Internacional de Restauración Neurológica — was established in Havana as a specialized institution dedicated to the comprehensive rehabilitation of patients with neurological conditions. Over more than three decades, it has developed and refined a unique multidisciplinary model that combines intensive daily therapy, advanced diagnostics, and Cuba's growing portfolio of neuroprotective biotechnology.

What distinguishes CIREN is its team-based approach: rather than referring patients between separate specialists across different facilities, an entire multidisciplinary team works together under one roof, coordinating every aspect of care around a single individualized treatment plan. This intensity and integration is the foundation of CIREN's international reputation.

Recognized worldwide

Patients from over 90 countries have traveled to CIREN for neurological restoration, supported by Cuba's Ministry of Public Health and Servicios Médicos Cubanos.

Core pillars of the CIREN model

Four principles define CIREN's approach to neurological restoration.

Multidisciplinary Team Model

Neurologists, neuropsychologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and specialized nurses work as a single coordinated unit under one individualized plan for each patient.

Cuban Biotechnology Integration

Direct access to therapies developed by Cuba's Center of Molecular Immunology (CIM), including NeuralCIM® (NeuroEPO) — a neuroprotective biologic administered under medical supervision.

Intensive Daily Rehabilitation

4–6 hours of structured therapy per day across multiple disciplines, a level of intensity rarely available in standard outpatient settings.

Neurorestorative Approach

Treatment philosophy centered on neuroplasticity and functional restoration — not just symptom management — grounded in decades of clinical experience.

Conditions treated at CIREN

CIREN's multidisciplinary model addresses a broad range of neurological conditions, each with a dedicated clinical protocol.
