Fascial distortion model (FDM) by Typaldos

The fascial distortion model (FDM) is a type of manual therapy developed by Stephen Typaldos, who was an emergency physician and osteopath. It is a revolutionary method of treating pain in the musculoskeletal system as well as being used by top athletes . The model is based on an independent concept of diagnosis and treatment, which combines osteopathy and orthopaedics. It is used for the treatment of disease patterns such as

• Back pain
• Pain in the shoulder
• Sprains, torn ligaments, overextended ligaments of joints
• osteoarthritis
• Muscle strain and muscle irritation

Additionally, our therapists are trained in a range of other methods such as Maitland, Cyriax, Craniosacral therapy or Kinesiotaping.
