Muskuloskelettale Schmerzen

Abstract

Pain therapy is either symptomatic or based on specific pathophysiology. Pain therapy consists of the moduls analgesics, antiphlogistics, physiotherapy, psychosocial support, and complementary therapies. We give advice on differential therapy. A transparent team-oriented concept comprising physicians, physiotherapists, ergotherapists, psychologists, and social workers is the basis for any successful long-term therapy. Regular outpatient visits in consent with the family doctor are mandatory as are education and treatment periods on ward. We encourage our patients to join formal self-supportive patient groups.
