Acute and chronic pain are a frequent reason why patients visit the therapeutic practice. In orthopaedics, rheumatology, (hand) surgery, but also in pediatrics, neurology and geriatrics, therapists are regularly confronted with the phenomenon of pain.
Chronic pain regularly overwhelms patients, their families, but also doctors and therapists. Long anamnesis, complex psychological and social factors occur concomitantly and complicate the therapeutic process.

The further training prepares you optimally for the therapeutic support of chronic pain patients in practice, clinic and rehabilitation. Starting with classifications and assessments, you will learn the basic structure of the treatment of chronic pain patients and develop your knowledge of diagnostic techniques, documentation and treatment techniques from the local, fascial, segmental, vegetative and visceral areas.

The course series consists of 5 e-learning courses. These online courses convey the theory in a practical way. You can then complete the practical compact course and learn all the practical treatment techniques in 5 days.
In the face-to-face courses at the institute, the practical reference from the online courses is then worked on directly and intensively.
