Area 01

Therapy

Everything we do with our hands and with targeted techniques, from classical physiotherapy through to dry needling.

Who it is for

You come to us with acute pain after a wrong movement. With complaints that keep coming back for months. After an operation, when it is time to get going again. Or because you want to keep playing your sport and your body is not cooperating right now.

What all cases have in common: we look at the movement chain, not just the joint. A knee problem often has its cause in the hip, a shoulder pain in the thoracic spine.

How it works

Four steps, always in this order

01

History

We listen and ask, what happened, what is going on, what needs to work again.

02

Examination

Clinical tests, mobility, stability, the whole movement chain. We include any MRI, CT or X-ray findings you have.

03

Treatment

Directly in the same session, with the techniques that fit the findings.

04

Plan

You do not go home without a task. We show you what you can do yourself and set out what happens next.

Questions about this area

Frequently asked

The service pages carry their own questions, each specific to the topic.

What is the difference between physiotherapy and osteopathy?

Physiotherapy works specifically on structure and function, mobility, strength, load capacity, often with active exercise. Osteopathy looks at the body as a whole system and searches for connections between areas that at first sight have nothing to do with each other. In practice the two complement each other: with us, examination is often osteopathic and rebuilding physiotherapeutic.

How many appointments will I need?

That depends on the findings. For an acute restriction one treatment can be enough. For a longer-standing problem we plan in blocks and after a few appointments look together at where we stand. We tell you from the start what to expect, and we also tell you if we think something else would help you more.

Can I come without a doctor's referral?

Officially a doctor's prescription is required for treatment. You can hand it in afterwards, what matters is the date on it. As a self-paying patient you need no prescription and can come straight away. If you are unsure, write to us: we settle it with you personally before you make an appointment.

Book with no obligation, we get back to you personally.
