The McKenzie Method: A Philosophy of the Musculoskeletal System
MDT focuses on assessing and diagnosing health issues surrounding the spine, a joint or muscle. It’s process is broken down into four steps: assessment, classification, custom treatment, and prevention. The end goal is to eliminate the source of pain, improve function, and take steps to prevent the problem from coming back.
Assessment involves delving into your health history and symptoms, along with evaluating certain repetitive movements. Classification (diagnosis) gives you and the chiropractor a clear path to follow. Treatment is customized to the individual, instead of a one size fits all. Dr. Jacobson strives for maximum effectiveness in the fewest sessions possible, including actions you can take at home, on your own time.
Thanks to at-home followup, you can reduce the risk of pain coming back. And if they do come back, you can act quickly.
