Treatment
What is the difference between manual therapy and physiotherapy?
Manual therapy is done by the therapist’s hands and works on joint mobility, soft tissues and pain. Physiotherapy (gyógytorna) is active: personalised exercises that build the change into your movement and develop strength and stability. Here the two build on each other; they are not alternatives.
What is physical therapy, and how do I book it?
Physical therapy can ease pain with devices and physical methods such as TENS, ultrasound, cupping, kinesiology taping and flossing. At MozgásKlinika Retek utca it is booked in Salonic together with manual therapy (50 minutes, 24,990 HUF). Please ask the clinic whether it can be booked on its own.
What is Medical Fitness?
Medical Fitness is the top of the MozgásPiramis®, the bridge between rehabilitation and a long-term active life: interval, cardio power and functional training, after an assessment and with a personal training plan. At MozgásKlinika Retek utca it is booked in Salonic as a one-hour session; please ask the clinic for the price.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on your condition and can never be guaranteed in advance. At MozgásKlinika Retek utca you receive a treatment plan and a realistic estimate at the first consultation, after the assessment.
Why complete the whole treatment programme?
Less pain does not yet mean that range of motion, strength and load tolerance have been rebuilt. That is why, after reducing pain, the MozgásPiramis® also works on range of motion, strength, functional stability and the return to full load, so that the problem is less likely to come back.
Can manual therapy be used for a herniated disc?
Yes. After a proper assessment, manual therapy can also be used for a herniated disc; at the first consultation the therapist decides which techniques are suitable.
What problems do you treat?
MozgásKlinika Retek utca works with musculoskeletal problems: low back and neck pain, disc herniation, shoulder, hip and knee pain, posture-related complaints, flat feet, sports injuries, and preparation before and rehabilitation after surgery. Which treatment suits your problem is decided at the first consultation.
How is MozgásKlinika different from other physiotherapy practices?
At MozgásKlinika Retek utca university-trained physiotherapists combine manual therapy with active physiotherapy and follow the MozgásPiramis® method. Treatment starts at the very first visit.
