Treatments

Primarily manual, adapted to each patient's presentation.

Acute pain

Generally rapid response

Most patients with no long-term history notice significant improvement within two weeks, after four to six treatments.

One factor is crucial for quick recovery: doing the "first aid" exercises at home. These are simple movements that extend the treatment between sessions.

Chronic pain

When pain becomes persistent

Persistent musculoskeletal pain is managed like a long-term condition, similar to asthma or diabetes: rarely a single solution, but control that is built over time.

Treatment aims to retrain the body to increase activity level at a safe pace for the tissues, allowing them time to regenerate and strengthen.

The "first aid" exercises help get through flare-ups and regain control over pain during the process.
