What We Treat

An unhealthy lifestyle, prolonged forced body position, lack of physical activity as well as its excess, and injuries can negatively affect the condition of the spine and peripheral joints.

Manual techniques, kinesitherapy, as well as physiotherapy or therapeutic massages help to alleviate pain, discomfort, and movement limitations.
Through complex manipulative and mobilization techniques, therapists restore proper muscle tone, reduce pressure and tension within spinal segments, and relax tight spinal muscles, allowing the body to return to a balanced state.

They can affect one, several, or many joints. They may result from developing osteoarthritis, which, besides pain, manifests as stiffness, limited mobility, and other ailments that should be consulted with a doctor.

Proper rehabilitation aims to alleviate or remove the ailments. Appropriately selected exercises will strengthen muscles and improve the range of motion in the joint.

Structural bodywork is also used in the treatment of posture defects such as: scoliosis, knock knees, rounded/concave/flat back, flat feet, lordosis, and kyphosis.

Untreated posture defects can cause pain in the back, limbs, and joints.

Manual therapy and appropriate exercises strengthen the deep muscles responsible for correct body posture. Through manual techniques, the therapist makes changes in the body, thereby eliminating tensions within the fascia.

Disc disease is a type of pathological deformation within the intervertebral disc.

It can be caused by a low level of physical activity and staying in one position for a long time. Significant weakening of the muscles in the spinal area also affects this condition. Not following the principles of proper posture in daily life is another negative factor affecting the condition of our spine.

A set of symptoms accompanying compression and inflammation of the sciatic nerve roots is known as sciatica. This situation absolutely requires consultation with a medical specialist.

Pain in sciatica may be felt as lower back pain radiating to the buttock and the entire leg – down to the toes.

Incorporating appropriate rehabilitative exercises is a key element in the recovery process. Meanwhile, the role of manual therapy is to treat complications of sciatica – muscle and joint contractures.

Cervical radiculopathy is a pain syndrome resulting from nerve irritation. The pain occurs in the neck and shoulder and may radiate along the entire upper limb, to the fingers and the shoulder girdle.

How to recognize the symptoms of cervical radiculopathy? What are the signs of cervical radiculopathy?

• Radiating pain

The most common symptom of cervical radiculopathy is sharp, radiating pain that usually spreads from the neck through the shoulder to the hand. This may be accompanied by a burning or numb sensation. The pain is most often concentrated around the neck and along the nerve path to the shoulder blade and the front part of the chest.

• Limited shoulder mobility

People with cervical radiculopathy often experience difficulty performing certain shoulder movements, especially lifting or raising it to the side.

• Tingling and numbness in the arm and hand

A tingling or numb sensation in the arm and hand may also be a symptom of cervical radiculopathy.

• Increased pain at night

Pain related to cervical radiculopathy can be particularly troublesome at night, disturbing sleep and affecting quality of life.

How to diagnose cervical radiculopathy?

Symptom analysis of cervical radiculopathy: Pay attention to the type of pain, its location, and accompanying symptoms such as muscle weakness or numbness as described above.

Consultation with a doctor: If you suspect cervical radiculopathy, consult a doctor. The doctor can perform a thorough physical examination, order necessary imaging tests such as magnetic resonance imaging, and make an accurate diagnosis.

The rehabilitation program after spine surgery is personalized.

Rehabilitation may take a longer period of time, as its process is influenced by many factors such as: surgical methods, the healing process of soft tissues, the patient's overall condition and fitness level, as well as the patient's involvement in the recovery process. The individualized rehabilitation program after spine surgery is based on manual therapy, therapeutic massages, physical therapy, and movement therapy, thereby strengthening the tissues building the muscular corset.

It is very important to maintain proper physical condition during daily activities.

You should pay attention to the correct body posture, proper gait, and evenly distribute the load on the spine. Extensive preventive measures will help avoid musculoskeletal disorders.

Effective prevention of ailments and daily exercises will help protect the spine and joints from overload and pain.

In case of injury, an orthopedic consultation is important for diagnosis.

The next step is individually tailored rehabilitation, based on myofascial release, manual therapy, and joint mobilization.
To improve movement quality, manual therapy is complemented by kinesitherapy, which strengthens muscle strength and increases joint range of motion.

Fatigue resulting from work, stress, as well as overtraining of athletes can cause overload conditions.

The goal of rehabilitation in such cases is to eliminate pain and tension in the musculoskeletal system, restore muscle balance, and stimulate tissue regeneration.

Preoperative rehabilitation prepares the musculoskeletal system to regain its proper functions after the surgery.

Through working with the body before the planned operation, swelling and pain are reduced, joint mobility improves, tension within the joint decreases, and muscle balance is restored.

10 days, 24 treatments, consultations, daily pool activities.

Rehabilitation after procedures: ligament reconstruction, endoprosthesis implantation, arthroscopy. Others: meniscus injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome.
