Spine Clinic

Henrik completed a comprehensive Osteopathic degree at the Scandinavian School of Osteopath and University of Wales 2006-2012. This degree focused on how the body’s anatomy, physiology and neurology interact, and the osteopathic techniques used to promote optimal physical functioning.

Physiotherapy is mainly used to treat problems of the musculoskeletal system, but can also be used to treat spinal problems, respiratory diseases and many other conditions.

A Physiotherapist or Physical Therapist helps people who lost their motor functions due to illness, age or accidents, determines root cause of the trauma, counseling patients, creating a rehabilitation plan, creating plans like strength training, exercises, physical manipulation or stretching to help in easy recovery; educating patients on keeping them motivated during therapies and finally tracking the progress of patients.

Physiotherapists consider the body as a whole, rather than just focusing on the individual aspects of an injury or illness.

Some of the main approaches used by physiotherapists include:

• Education and advice – physiotherapists can give general advice about things that can affect your daily lives, such as posture and correct lifting or carrying techniques to help prevent injuries
• Movement, tailored exercise and physical activity advice – exercises may be recommended to improve your general health and mobility, and to strengthen specific parts of your body
• Manual therapy – where the physiotherapist uses their hands to help relieve pain and stiffness, and to encourage better movement of the body.

Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese medical practice that involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body. This holistic approach to healthcare has gained popularity in recent years for its ability to treat a wide range of health conditions, from chronic pain to anxiety and depression.

Acupuncture is based on the principle that the body has energy pathways, or meridians, which can become blocked, causing illness or pain. By inserting needles into specific points on these meridians, acupuncturists can help restore the flow of energy and promote healing.

One of the many benefits of acupuncture is its ability to treat chronic pain. Studies have shown that acupuncture can be effective in relieving pain associated with conditions like osteoarthritis, back pain, sleeping disorders and migraines. In addition, acupuncture can help reduce stress, anxiety, and depression by promoting the release of endorphins, the body’s natural “feel-good” chemicals.

Acupuncture is a safe and minimally invasive treatment that is suitable for people of all ages. During an acupuncture session, patients may feel a slight sensation as the needles are inserted, but there is typically no pain or discomfort. 

In conclusion, acupuncture is a holistic approach to healthcare that can help treat a wide range of health conditions, from chronic pain to anxiety and depression. If you’re looking for a safe and effective way to promote wellness and balance in your life, acupuncture may be worth exploring.
