Pathologies

Conditions and complaints we treat successfully at our clinic.

“SEDARE DOLOREM, DIVINUM OPUS EST: to relieve pain is a divine work.”

Acute pain is useful and serves a protective role: it warns us that something is wrong and sets in motion the body’s defence and tissue-healing mechanisms. It is a signal that protects us from further damage and, as a rule, subsides once its cause is removed.

Chronic pain loses this protective role. When it persists, it ceases to be a useful signal and becomes a problem in its own right, one that wears you down, disrupts sleep, mood and mobility, and seriously undermines quality of life. That is why we approach pain management patiently and comprehensively, combining physical therapies that reduce the need for medication, especially in chronic conditions, and restore the body’s function without unwanted side effects.

In pain management we use:

  • INDIBA activ: TECAR therapy at a frequency of 448 kHz
  • SALUS TALENT: high-intensity super-inductive magnetic therapy (2.5 T)

  • Ultrasound and sonophoresis
