We program the patient’s therapy in a modern way ensuring an individual approach to each person. Our goal is an accurate diagnosis and an appropriate treatment strategy.
The basis of therapy is to educate the patient so that he can understand the work of the physiotherapist: what he does, why, what are the possibilities and what awaits him during physiotherapy.
During the diagnosis and therapy we use the knowledge (Kinetic Control, MSI, McConnell Institute, Manual Therapy, Taping, Needle Therapy) and experience of our team, so we are able to understand the movement and its correlation with the occurring ailments of patients.
1. Diagnostics
Individual therapy begins with an initial diagnostic visit. The time spent on detailed diagnostics allows the physiotherapist to assess the condition of the patient. A number of tests and in-depth analysis of the patient’s problems allows the specialist to understand how movement (uncontrolled/incorrect) affects and generates the patient’s complaints.
2. Assessment and analysis
Locating the body’s “weak points” (limitations and deficits in stability, mobility, and motor control) allows you to choose the most beneficial therapy and treatment strategy.
3. Functional Therapy
The therapy is aimed at restoring the correct movement patterns, the lost movement function, its strengthening and consolidation. Individual work with a physiotherapist is mainly based on the modern working concept of Kinetic Control.
4. Prevention
Specialists emphasize education of good habits that prevents recurrence of the problem in the future. Preventive measures are very important. Paying attention to exercise hygiene helps to avoid unpleasant situations in the future.
For our patients and beyond, we provide free workshops, where physiotherapists provide valuable tips on how to take care of your health.
Which patients are targeted for individual work with a physiotherapist?
Because “movement” is an indispensable part of functioning in everyday life, this therapy is not limited to a narrow group of people. Kinetic Control is not only applicable to acute complaints (where many physiotherapeutic concepts are applicable), but primarily to chronic complaints.
Many patients, despite the elimination of pain during rehabilitation, after a few weeks or months come back complaining of a recurrence of symptoms. This is due to the fact that symptomatic treatment is often used instead of causal treatment, and many ailments are a consequence of motor activity (arises during or is a consequence of some movement) or incorrect resting position. It should be noted that the absence of pain does not determine the completion of rehabilitation, and functional therapy sometimes requires several weeks or even months of systematic work on the part of the patient and physiotherapist.
