Treatment
Manual therapy in Crimmitschau
Targeted hands-on techniques for joints and spine, for adults, children and infants. Plus jaw joint treatment (CMD) and the McKenzie method. On prescription.
When a joint will not play along.
Manual therapy works with the hands directly at the joint. I examine which direction of movement is restricted and where the restriction comes from, then mobilise with carefully measured techniques and treat the surrounding muscles. This treatment requires a special additional qualification, which I hold. I also treat infants and children, as well as jaw joints (CMD), and works with the McKenzie method, in which you learn targeted exercises for home.
Common reasons
- Blocked vertebral joints, for example in the neck or lower back
- Restricted movement in the shoulder, hip or knee
- Jaw joint complaints (CMD)
- Back problems that respond to McKenzie exercises
- Movement issues in infants and children, in consultation with the paediatrician
- After injuries and surgery, when a joint stays stiff
How a treatment works.
01
Examination
Joint by joint I check which movement is missing and what is limiting it.
02
Mobilisation
Measured hands-on work at the joint, plus treatment of the surrounding muscles.
03
Stabilise
Exercises for home follow, so the mobility you gain stays with you.
