Die Therapeuten im Center fur Integrative Therapie bauen mit am noch im Rohbau befindlichen Evidenzgebaude der Physiotherapie. Sie erforschen die Wirkung der interdisziplinaren Faszientherapie, die auf drei Bausteinen basiert. Carmen Graf und Christopher-Marc Gordon erklaren, wie sie im laufenden Praxisbetrieb relevante Daten sammeln und evaluieren...
Background:
This study comprehensively evaluated a myofascial triggerpoint release (MTR) technique for shoulder pain.
Methods:
Twenty-three (from an initial sample of 25) patients experiencing shoulder pain received MTR, in four 10-min sessions over a period of 2 weeks, applied exclusively on the more painful shoulder, with assessments being rec...
Background/Objectives: Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is highly prevalent and relevant in all medical fields. This study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of interdisciplinary fascia therapy (IFT) for CLBP, focusing on its potential to reduce pain intensity, disability, and regulate autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity. Methods: Nine particip...
Cellulite occurs in females and is a common condition of altered connective tissue matrix and increased adipogenicity with visible dimples and orange‐peel appearance on the skins surface. Whilst advancements in methods continue to help our understanding, attempts to correct the appearance of cellulite topically have yielded limited success. Various...

Neben den bekannten manuellen und aktiven Therapieformen eignet sich zur Behandlung die evidenzbasierte Interdis...
Background:
This randomized controlled trial explored the practicality and effectiveness of a novel tool-assisted self-help device, one that combines vibrational oscillation, leverage, and the shearing effect from the edges, for promoting meaningful changes in key biochemical tissue indices and related parameters.
Methods:
One hundred and thirte...
BACKGROUND: A tool assisted tissue manipulation was performed on the quadriceps and the tensor facia latae muscle of the thigh in form of a self-help treatment. The aim of this study was to explore the practicality of this self-help modality and to assess the effectiveness of an instrument where myofascial release is combined with a vibrational osc...
