DOCTOR
At the Centre, each patient is assessed by a Medical Doctor before commencing a treatment programme. This evaluation ensures that you, as the patient, can safely undergo the researched DBC treatment protocols and physiotherapy.
The Assessment gives the therapists an in-depth view of your current pain concerns and the associated causes. Thorough assessment also ensures that the appropriate duration of treatment is followed to improve your condition. This determination is based on the information collected from questionnaires, range of motion measurements via DBC machines, and the relevant orthopedic and neurological tests to diagnose the sources of your pain.
BIOKINETICIST
Biokinetics is a field of exercise science that focuses on improving physical functioning through tailored exercise regimens. Biokineticists often work with individuals who have medical conditions or injuries, striving to improve their overall health and well-being. In the DBC Centres the biokineticists evaluate your range of motion on the DBC equipment and monitor your progress. They facilitate this progress through prescribed exercises that effectively strengthen spinal stabilisers and improve movement coordination and control. Improved functional movement patterns protects spinal segments, and reduces pain over time.
PHYSIOTHERIPIST
Physiotherapy is a field of Health Science that employs a variety of manual therapy treatment modalities to address your unique mechanical, muscular and nerve related physical challenges. The techniques used assist in reducing joint and muscle stiffness that may be caused by tissue related restrictions within a specific area of concern.
Individualized treatment strategies target these specific areas to reduce the effects of these restrictions to improve capacity for physical movement and exercise. The improvements attained through physiotherapy subsequently helps patients to effectively strengthen spinal stabilisers and improve movement coordination and control
