Praxis für Physiotherapie Susanne Paech (Schaffhausen)

Physiotherapy is an integral part of therapy in the context of surgery, orthopedics, sports medicine and manual medicine.

In the therapy of muscle injuries, physical measures and moderate recovery of function through manual techniques, techniques based on neurophysiology, succeed in shortening the convalescence and the return to sport.

In surgical procedures such as stabilization of a bone fracture with a plate or nail, physiotherapy with all its techniques is crucial for the functional outcome of the operation, as well as in joint plastic surgery or operations after ligament injuries.

Without accompanying physiotherapy, back pain, whether the cause is a herniated disc or muscular tension with accompanying segmental blocking of the spine, cannot be treated effectively.

Physical therapy is crucial for the prophylaxis of injuries and pain in the muscles, tendons and joints.

The focus is on physiotherapy for sports injuries, after surgery of the musculoskeletal system with manual techniques, PNF techniques, fascia techniques and techniques from osteopathy.

Due to decades of experience in the physiotherapy of sports injuries in cooperation with specialized sports surgeons, this is the main focus of my physiotherapeutic activities.

Physiotherapy with first decongestant measures, then increasing recovery of function and finally strength and coordination is an integral part of trauma surgery and sports surgery.

In order to fulfill these tasks, manual, neurophysiological and fascia techniques are required, as well as cooperation with a surgically active specialist. Promotion of strength, agility running and sprinting, as well as plyometrics are important for the successful return of an athlete.

Criteria and testing for dynamic strength development, fatigue resistance, and neuromuscular coordination are important and helpful in evaluating an athlete.

This is only possible with the good and close coordination between physiotherapy and sports surgeon.
