Myofascial pain medicine

Individually tailored

Are you looking for an alternative treatment for your complaints? Let me have a look at your problem from different angles. Then we can develop a treatment approach individually tailored to your needs! In my practice we offer a selection of different diagnostic and therapeutic options for effective pain therapy.

If possible your first myofascial treatment already takes place within the first visit manually. This oftenly leads to a significant pain reduction. We regularly use manual methods from osteopathy & chiropractic and refrain from the usual use of medication in pain therapy. A variety of other non-surgical, innovative approaches like:

Fascial Manipulation

ACP

Frequency Specific Microcurrent

Prolotherapy

many others

Many other approaches are available if needed like metabolic regulation, immunological modification and others.

Research for the cause of your pain is the basis for my treatment. For example, the manipulation techniques are insufficient to solve some patients problems. In my opinion „mechanical techniques“ (like chiropractic / osteopathic approaches) are adequate to solve dominant mechanical problems. Sometimes a metabolic regulation (acid-alkaline balance / short-term food change / …) must be considered to relieve their symptoms as well. In other patients, the cause of pain could be the immune system.

As you can see, similar problems can unfortunately have very different causes! That’s why I have to search for the causes of your musculoskeletal pain before we could initiate an individual treatment.

I’m looking forward to seeing you,
Dr. Christian Stein (MD)
