At Brændgaard Physiotherapy, we have extensive experience in treating back pain, both those that arise suddenly and those that slowly creep in.
We treat your nervous system and thereby the cause of your pain. Most people notice an effect after 1-3 treatments.

Back pain

According to Sundhed.dk, “Back pain is a common disease,” but does it have to be?

The flexibility of the spine requires the interaction of many muscles to stabilize and control movements. Our experience is that the cause of pain in the back rarely comes from the back itself, but is only a symptom area. This may explain why so many people have back pain, but not the cause, as this is individual. 

How we help you

The treatment focuses on removing the imbalances in the nervous system which are the cause of your back pain. A technique is used, P-DTR, which was developed by the neurological spinal surgeon, Jose Palomar from Mexico, who uses his extensive knowledge of the nervous system and muscle testing from kinesiology for treatment. The technique is used by osteopaths, chiropractors and physiotherapists all over the world.

How imbalances occur in the nervous system

The brain is responsible for processing sensory impressions from the entire body, as well as providing output to muscles and organs based on this. An imbalance in the nervous system can occur if, for example, we get a blow to the nose. In that case, the nervous system will react by moving the head away from the pain. The muscles on the back of the body tense up and the muscles on the front of the body relax. The muscular response can manifest itself in the nervous system, so that there is increased tension on the back of the body and relaxation in the muscles on the front of the body, even though the situation is no longer dangerous. In the long term, these muscle tensions can pull on joints and bones, and tense up other muscles. Here we are talking about compensation patterns and you can often see that the body is crooked as a result of compensating. With P-DTR, the blow to the nose can be treated so that the muscular response on the front and back is removed and the muscular balance is restored.

This knowledge puts things into perspective in relation to how many small and large blows we have received to the face and body throughout life and how many imbalances and thus compensations our bodies can have.

How does back pain feel

Back pain can occur suddenly (acute neck/lower back pain) or creep up over a longer period of time (lumbago). It can be the first time or a recurring problem that is located in the lower back, between the shoulder blades or in the upper shoulder/neck area. There may be radiating pain to the arms or legs if there is pressure on a nerve due to tense muscles or a disc prolapse/protusion. Here are some of the typical back pains briefly described.

Low back pain/Lumbago

Pain in the lower back typically occurs due to twisting of the body, overload, direct injury, fall or wear and tear changes in the spine. In our view, this happens because the brain cannot compensate for the movement due to the muscular imbalances in the body. The symptoms appear acutely and often similar symptoms have been there before. There may be radiation to the buttocks or thighs and the pain is often worse with activity and subsides with rest. Lumbar pain can be called a "witch's shot" if it has occurred acutely and is due to a tension in the muscles that reduces or prevents movement of the area.

Crick in the neck or lower back

A back strain is a huge tension in the muscles that prevents normal and painless movement in a specific area. Our experience is that spinal strains are most effectively treated by removing the muscular imbalances in the area. The muscles are stronger than the ligaments around the joint, which is why it is more effective than “cracking” the joint into place. Many also experience recurring back strains, this is because the cause of the muscle strain has not been treated. 
An effective and continuous treatment of a crick in the neck or lower back is achieved by getting the muscles in balance. We do this with P-DTR, which treats the nervous system and is free of kinks and twists.

Scoliosis

A scoliosis is seen as an S-shaped spine with curves to the sides or a C-shaped spine. In our experience, it is either a symptom of an imbalance in the hip, legs or feet, but can also occur due to imbalances around the spine. The brain will always prioritize that the vision is clear, so it adapts the body accordingly. We have good experience in treating the cause of scoliosis and relieving the pain related to the scoliosis.

Herniated disc

A disc herniation occurs when the soft core of the disc between the vertebrae is broken through the hard core around it and presses on the nerves inside the spine.
In our experience, a protusion (bulging disc) or prolapse is a sign of an imbalance in the musculature around the spine. This imbalance may have been there for a long time and it may not be the first time you have back pain. We believe that it is important to have the cause of the symptoms examined and treated so that no further pain occurs.

The P-DTR technique

We treat with the newest technique in physiotherapy in Denmark; P-DTR. The method has been around for over 20 years and many chiropractors and osteopaths in The United States uses this technique over their basic education because it is so effective. Clinical research is underway in the area, which will be announced on the website when available.
