Mechanical Diagnosis and Treatment (MDT)

Mechanical Diagnosis and Treatment (MDT), also known as the McKenzie Method, is a comprehensive assessment and treatment approach for musculoskeletal pain, particularly in the spine and extremities. MDT focuses on identifying specific movement patterns and positions that can alleviate pain and restore function. Through a detailed evaluation, patients are guided to actively participate in their recovery with targeted exercises and postural corrections tailored to their unique condition. This method is effective for treating conditions like back pain, neck pain, sciatica, herniated discs, and joint dysfunction. MDT empowers patients by teaching self-management techniques, reducing dependency on ongoing treatments, and preventing future episodes of pain. With its focus on personalized care and long-term solutions, Mechanical Diagnosis and Treatment is an evidence-based approach that helps patients achieve lasting relief and improved quality of life.
