What We Do
THE MCKENZIE METHOD
(Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy – MDT)
The McKenzie Method is a philosophy of active patient involvement and education that is trusted and used by practitioners and patients all over the world to control pain for the back, neck and extremities.
Three steps to success:
1. Assessment: The “initial component” is a safe and reliable means to
accurately reach a diagnosis and only then make the
appropriate treatment plan. The assessment is a unique
process beginning with a thorough history and testing
of movements.
2. Treatment: When appropriate, the McKenzie treatment uses the
patient’s own movements and forces to abolish pain
and restore function. The treatment always matches
the assessment finding. (In cases when a patient does
not respond mechanically, alternative means of treat-
ment and/or further medical evaluation is warranted.)
3. Preventative: Patients who do respond favorably to MDT can
successfully treat themselves. This will reduce the
number of visits to the clinic and provide the patient
with the necessary knowledge to quickly manage
themselves if symptoms do occur.
The staff at PTC are trained in the McKenzie Assessment Treatment. The McKenzie Institute USA provides only US sanctioned training in the McKenzie Method.
