Description
“Strong Back, More Flexible Everyday Life” Package
This service gives you the support of two pain specialists at the same time. The goal is to increase flexibility in your daily life, which may be limited by back pain.
Physiotherapy + Osteopathy = More Well-Being for You
We combine the expertise of a physiotherapist and an osteopath to help you in the best possible way. The service includes six sessions (3 physiotherapy, 3 osteopathy) over six months.
During the treatment period, you will:
- Learn ways to influence your pain yourself
- Be able to explore and understand your pain with attentive professionals
- Receive a comprehensive assessment of factors affecting your pain
- Get a clear plan for recovery from pain
- Receive nervous system–based manual treatment
- Get exercises tailored to your life situation that take overall load into account
Two of us, so you can feel better
We combine all our knowledge about pain physiology and its effects on the nervous system and alertness.
Maria’s osteopathic approach is nervous system–aware and respects the body’s resources. It is especially suitable when pain affects quality of life and daily routines. Touch has been scientifically shown to significantly influence pain and its perception—osteopathy adds this important healing element to the service.
Heli’s strengths as a physiotherapist include understanding the connection between body and mind and considering factors related to experience and alertness in rehabilitation. She is also skilled in creating individualized and innovative movement exercises.
This package is suitable for you if:
- You are tired of wondering where your pain comes from
- You are exhausted by fluctuating on/off pain
- You want peace of mind in managing pain
- You want a new perspective on your situation
- You want to move and function in daily life without pain controlling you
Whether your pain history is short or long, you are welcome to receive help from our multidisciplinary team.
Package price: €445 (purchasing individual sessions separately costs €495).
