What is the McKenzie Method?The goal for Tillman Physical Therapy is to get patients to be independent in their own care and gain understanding of both good and bad behaviors. A bad habit beats you up over time or pressure over time wins.
We achieve this through the McKenzie Method® of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy® (MDT). A proven worldwide method for assessment and treatment of both spinal and extremity pain for more than three decades. MDT clinicians are trained to assess and diagnose all areas of the musculoskeletal system using the philosophy of active patient involvement and education creating patient future independence in self management of back, neck and extremity problems. |
