About the McKenzie Method
The McKenzie Method, also known as Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT), is an evidence-based approach to musculoskeletal pain management and rehabilitation. It was developed by the renowned New Zealand physiotherapist Robin McKenzie in the 1950s.
Benefits of McKenzie Method Education
At Phoenix Medical Services, we recognize the importance of offering comprehensive McKenzie Method education to our patients. By understanding and applying this specialized method, individuals can experience significant improvements in pain management and functional recovery.
Pain Management
The McKenzie Method focuses on a patient's active involvement in their own treatment. Through self-assessment techniques, patients can identify specific movements and positions that alleviate or exacerbate their pain. By incorporating these findings into customized exercise programs, individuals can effectively manage their pain without relying heavily on medications.
Functional Recovery
In addition to pain management, the McKenzie Method aims to enhance functional recovery. By utilizing movement-based approaches, patients can restore and improve their mobility, flexibility, and overall physical function. The method emphasizes a holistic approach to rehabilitation, targeting the root cause of the problem rather than solely focusing on symptoms.
