MANUAL THERAPY IS ONE OF THE MOST COMMON AND IMPORTANT TREATMENT TECHNIQUES. MANUAL THERAPY IS THE PASSIVE MOBILIZATION OF JOINTS, WHICH HAS A POSITIVE EFFECT ON THE JOINT STRUCTURES THROUGH SLOW AND REPETITIVE MOVEMENTS. THE AIM OF THIS THERAPY IS TO RELIEVE PAIN AND IMPROVE MOBILITY. SPORTS PHYSIOTHERAPY AIMS TO MAKE THE THERAPY INDIVIDUAL AND SPORT-SPECIFIC, IN ORDER TO ENABLE THE RETURN TO SPORT AFTER AN INJURY. IT IS A MIXTURE OF PASSIVE AND ACTIVE THERAPY MEASURES. THE AIM OF TRIGGER POINT THERAPY IS TO ELIMINATE THE PAIN OF SO-CALLED MYOFASCIAL TRIGGER POINTS. THESE ARE LOCALIZED MUSCLE HARDENINGS IN THE SKELETAL MUSCULATURE, WHICH ARE LOCALLY SENSITIVE TO PRESSURE AND FROM WHICH TRANSMITTED PAIN CAN ORIGINATE. IN CLASSICAL MANUAL TRIGGER POINT THERAPY, THE THERAPIST APPLIES STRONG PRESSURE TO THE TRIGGER POINT WITH A BLUNT OBJECT. SHOCK WAVES ARE HIGH-ENERGY MECHANICAL WAVES WITH A HIGH AMPLITUDE AND AN EXTREMELY SHORT RISE TIME. THE SHOCK WAVE EFFECT CAN BE DIRECTED PRECISELY TO THE DESIRED AREA. THE SHOCK WAVE CREATES A VERY LARGE STIMULUS CURRENT THAT IS TRANSMITTED TO THE BRAIN. AS A RESULT, ON THE ONE HAND, THE CAPACITY OF THE NERVES IS NO LONGER SUFFICIENT TO TRANSPORT THE PREVIOUSLY EXISTING PAIN. ON THE OTHER HAND, THE SHOCKWAVE IMPULSE CAUSES THE BODY'S OWN POSITIVE CHANGE IN THE CELL WALLS. THE TRANSMISSION OF THE PAIN IMPULSE IS PREVENTED. DRY NEEDLING IS AN EFFECTIVE SUPPLEMENT TO MANUAL TRIGGER POINT THERAPY. A THIN NEEDLE IS INSERTED PRECISELY INTO THE TRIGGER POINT THAT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CURRENT DISCOMFORT. THIS RELEASES THE CRAMPS, IMPROVES THE LOCAL BLOOD CIRCULATION AND REDUCES THE LOCAL INFLAMMATORY REACTIONS. IT HAS BEEN OBSERVED THAT WATER THERAPY IS MORE COMFORTABLE AND BETTER TOLERATED BY PATIENTS WITH SHOULDER PATHOLOGY THAN DRY THERAPY. OUR THERAPY POOL OFFERS AN IDEAL LOCATION FOR REHABILITATION WITH > 30°C. PATIENTS BENEFIT PASSIVELY AND ACTIVELY FROM THE ABSENCE OF GRAVITY.
