Are you restricted by back pain from performing your daily activities such as sports, work, dressing and housework? Then you are not the only one. About eight in 10 adults suffer from it at some point. Fortunately, there is FRISKFYSIO with McKenzie Therapy!

What is McKenzie Therapy?

McKenzie Therapy is a globally used examination and treatment method specifically for people with (acute) back pain. The method has become known for its excellent results in back and neck pain. In addition, the therapy is also very effective for shoulder pain, hip pain and joint pain.

The goal: Making your back pain disappear as quickly as possible in the shortest possible time!

FRISKFYSIO does this by using specific exercises that you can continue to do independently from our FRISKFYSIO APP from a customised personal exercise programme. McKenzie Therapy is a clearly defined treatment system based on sound scientific research.

Treatment begins with an in-depth, protocolised examination in which your symptoms are identified in detail through an interview and movement assessment. The difference from other evaluations? The use of repeated movements, rather than a single movement. The way your symptoms and mobility change during these repeated movements gives us enough information that we can use to reach a diagnosis!

The forecast

Based on the above examination, our physiotherapists can make a clear prognosis for you. Note! This form of therapy determines which posture and exercise is best for your complaint at that moment. This is therefore not the same for everyone!

Treatment

If we can treat your complaint(s) with this therapy, we will prescribe specific exercises and advise you on postures you CAN and CANNOT perform. You will also receive a personalised exercise programme that you can view yourself via our FRISKFYSIO APP.
