What is Physical therapy
Physiotherapy is used for rehabilitation after an injury or operation. The aim is to put the body in a better condition than before the event. Using various techniques, we can help the body to recover quickly and properly.
Manual Therapy
Manual therapy eliminates functional disorders of the musculoskeletal system, such as restricted mobility or pain in joints. Joint mobility is restored through targeted mobilization, stretching, and manipulative techniques.
Lymphatic drainage
Activating the lymphatic vessels helps to reduce swelling and improve mobility. This accelerates healing after an injury or operation.
Respiratory therapy
Our breathing is an important factor for our health. It influences our posture, metabolism, and psyche. Good breathing helps many people to alleviate their complaints in the long term.
Temporomandibular disorders
TMD is a functional disorder of the skull and lower jaw and is an umbrella term for various problems that can occur in the temporomandibular joint or jaw muscles. Symptoms such as dizziness, pain (head, jaw, ear, or neck pain), tinnitus, and difficulty swallowing can have many causes. Stress, a faulty bite, head trauma or poor posture are often the triggers for TMD. The treatment of TMD is coordinated with your dentist. As part of an overall concept, physiotherapy helps by releasing muscular tension and correcting posture. Naturopathic techniques such as chiropractic, dry needling and craniosacral therapy can also help with TMD.
