Assumptions

The main views of our practice are that musculoskeletal complaints can come from:

• to adopt a body posture that is too stressful for too long
• carry out activities that are too long and/or too often
• too little physical activity
• deviations from movements and positions of joints
• disturbed control due to non-optimal interplay of nervous system and muscles.

We realize that:

• what is normal and different can differ per person
• factors in the living and working environment can play a role
• the whole person must be examined as a unique individual.

That is why we pay special attention to:

• the origin of the complaint and the course
• what has or does not affect the complaint
• the demands placed on the person in the physical, psychological and social areas
• the individual characteristics and wishes of the person being examined.

What we can not and do not want to treat (so-called contraindications):

• fractures
• tearing of joint capsules and bands
• bone and joint inflammations
• cancer
• infections
• congenital abnormalities
• neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's.
