PHYSICAL THERAPY

Physiotherapy treatments are used for poor posture, incorrect development and malfunctions of the holding, supporting and musculoskeletal systems. At the beginning there is a detailed examination by the therapist. The treatment includes physiotherapeutic techniques to support regeneration, mobilization and strengthening, which are selected based on the examination results. The client learns a self-exercise program that supports the course of treatment and stabilizes the treatment result. The goals of physiotherapy are to reduce pain, improve posture, increase strength and mobility and return to everyday and sports resilience.

Part of manual medicine carried out by therapists based on biomechanics and reflexology to treat dysfunctions of the musculoskeletal system. It includes a detailed diagnosis, active and passive stretching of shortened muscular and neural structures, strengthening of the weakened antagonists and special joint mobilization techniques. Physiotherapy manual therapy does not contain any passive manipulation techniques of blocked joint structures in the spine. The goals of manual therapy are to reduce pain, improve joint metabolism and joint mechanics, as well as the interaction between joints, muscles and nerves.

The sling table is a device construction in which a patient can experience weightlessness over the entire body or individual parts of the body. For this purpose, individual body parts are suspended using special pulleys and slings. The pulleys are designed to be height adjustable and halve the weight of the body part hanging from them when pulled up

"Cranium" is the Latin term for "skull", "mandibula" is the one for lower jaw. These structures have their point of contact in the jaw joint. Cranio-mandibular therapy is therefore nothing other than the therapy of the jaw joint.

Physiotherapy on a neurophysiological basis is used for complicated injuries, complex poor posture, chronic degenerative joint diseases and respiratory diseases, chronic pain symptoms and all neurological diseases. By learning new movement patterns, the interaction between the nervous system, muscles and joints is improved. This results in improved everyday function, which allows the client to participate more in their activities.

The primary focus is on treatment in the sports environment, during the training process and in competition. When an athlete gets injured while playing sports, it doesn't always have to be serious. In the case of minor injuries to the musculoskeletal system, such as vertebral blockages, muscle problems, muscle cramps, slight strains, ligament stretches in the ankle, knee, joint blockages in the hand, foot or fingers, an experienced physiotherapist can restore the ability to play sports in the short term. The aim of sports therapy is to strengthen weaknesses precisely and functionally.

In physiotherapy on equipment (KGG), improvements in muscle functions are achieved, including the associated joint and supporting tissue, by incorporating training theory on special rehabilitation equipment.

Classic massage therapy is an application in which the therapist uses manual grip techniques to treat the skin and subcutaneous tissue, fascia, connective tissue and muscles. The main areas of application are tense back, shoulder and neck muscles, as well as all non-inflammatory pain conditions of the connective tissue and fascia. The goals are to reduce muscle tone, improve mobility and stretchability of the muscles, relieve pain, improve metabolism (better supply to the cells through opened capillaries, better removal of acidic metabolic products), promote relaxation, and generally increase the ability to regenerate.

Manual lymphatic drainage is a specially developed type of massage to increase the transport capacity of the lymphatic system and thus enable the removal of edema.

Electrotherapy/treatment using individually adjusted current strengths and frequencies

Complex physical decongestion therapy (KPE) is a comprehensive therapy for the treatment of lymphedema, which consists of four components: manual lymphatic drainage, compression treatment, movement exercises, skin care

Radial shock wave therapy (RSWT) is a method of treating superficial orthopedic disorders that has developed over the past 20 years.

The classic connective tissue massage is one of the so-called reflexology massages. The basic idea behind these techniques is that the treatment should not only have local effects at the site of the massage, but also have long-distance effects on internal organs through certain nerve stimulation (reflexes).

In physiotherapy, various therapy methods are used that use heat or cold to achieve a pain-relieving effect on the patient. Both heat and cold applications can be used locally or all over the body. Which procedure is used depends on the respective pain pattern.

Treatment for targeted regional heating of deeper tissue layers (especially muscles, bones, joint structures) with high-frequency mechanical vibrations (longitudinal waves) with a frequency of 800 - 3000 kHz

More and more recreational athletes are doing intensive training, the risk of injury due to incorrect or overloading increases, and muscles shorten. Especially for these physically active people, sports massage is an ideal complement to regular strength and endurance training

In recent years, it has been shown that treatment with the help of shock wave therapy can support regeneration particularly effectively for complaints of the muscles, fascia and tendon attachments. Further information
