McKenzie Method

What is the mckenzie method?

The McKenzie method, developed by world-renowned physiotherapist Robin McKenzie, focuses on the manipulation and treatment of the back, neck, arms, and legs. It is an evidence-based approach that utilizes a unique combination of evaluation and diagnosis, hands-on (manual) treatment, and exercises. It also enables patients to self-manage their condition and helps them for a lifetime of pain-free living. It is a highly reputable and successful method that has been used by licensed physical therapists for over 30 years.

  • Will it hurt?

    Physical therapy is not meant to hurt, but to relieve pain. However, as you restore your mobility, pain levels, at times can fluctuate.

Good communication with your therapist will help minimize any discomfort. We want you on your way to quick pain relief and back to normal activities.
