Manual medicine (also chirotherapy)

A form of treatment for painful functional disorders of the musculoskeletal system. Blockages can manifest themselves as painful muscle tension or restricted mobility. These can be released with the help of special hand movements and mobilisation techniques. The aim of this treatment is to relieve pain and improve mobility.

Indications
  • Acute or chronic back pain
  • Joint blockages
  • Acute torticollis
  • Painful muscle tension
  • Head and neck pain
  • Dizziness
  • Sports injuries
  • Restricted movement after immobilisation or surgery
  • Tennis elbow
  • Mouse hand

Manual medicine treatment


Shock wave therapy

A procedure in which short, very intensive pressure waves are delivered into the tissue from the outside via the skin using a transducer. It is an alternative to surgical procedures. This non-invasive method can be used to treat various conditions and injuries without exposure to radiation. The body's own pain-relieving substances are released and damaged tissue is stimulated to regenerate. Calcium deposits are mobilised and subsequently broken down.

Indications

  • Calcifications in tendons (tendinosis calcarea, calcific shoulder)
  • Heel spur (plantar fasciitis)
  • Tennis elbow, golfer's elbow (epicondylitis)
  • Tendonitis of the lateral hip (trochanteric tendinosis)
  • Patellar tendinitis
  • other tendon attachment inflammations, e.g. Achilles tendon (so-called enthesiopathies)
  • poorly healing bone fractures (pseudarthroses)
  • Muscular, painful trigger points
