THE IS WHAT WE DO
FOR HEAD & NECK
Diagnostics
The methods available for rendering an exact diagnosis include clinical examination and instrument-driven diagnostics (digital X-ray, measurements, functional tests etc.). Special cases are referred to the radiology department for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Therapy
Therapeutically, our large portfolio of chirotherapeutic/manual medical techniques ranges from injections, infusions and physical measures up to rehabilitative sports. In rare cases, it may be necessary to refer you to the neurosurgery department for operative care. Usually, however, surgery can be avoided. We have had very good experience with targeted neural therapy procedures.
