About Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy

What is Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy (MDT)?

MDT also known as the McKenzie method is a worldwide recognized assessment & treatment tool for neck, back, and extremity disorders. Ultimately the method assesses and classifies movement problems leading to appropriate treatment.

Limitation in movement patterns cause or joints to become stiff and less mobile leading to pain and overall dysfunction. The key component of this method is patient education which empowers them to train the patient posture, ergonomics, and exercises to treat their own pain. In turn this makes the patient less reliant on the doctor and allowing the patient to reconnect with their own bodies needs.

To learn more about this method please visit the Mckenzie Institute.
