The functional disorders of the spine and extremities described above can be treated with child-friendly, manual medicine techniques (osteopathic techniques, chirotherapy, chiropractics, mobilisation, mobilising impulse techniques, manipulations, myofascial release techniques, Metamer massage etc.). Locomotor pain is usually accompanied by tension in individual muscles and articulation disorders of the spine and extremities. It usually requires intensive outpatient treatment over 2-4 weeks. The length of treatment depends, among other things, on the extent and gravity of the functional disorders. It is advisable to repeat the treatment after 6-12 months. During this time the body learns to apply the improved patterns of movement in everyday life. Atlanto-occipital joint-induced asymmetries in children (KIDD- resp. KISS-Syndrom) are best treated between 3 and 5 months of age with Arlen’s atlas therapy.
Apart from medical manual therapies for children we also prescribe recognised forms of therapy such as physiotherapeutic gymnastics based on neurophysiology according to Vojta or Bobath, ergotherapy, physiotherapy, neuro-reflective dynamic foot orthotics after Nancy Hylton etc.
Dr. Surminski supplement manual medicine by adding manual paediatrics (as integrierte Manualmedizinische Entwicklungstherapie - IMMET) in a course taken with the Ärztegesellschaft für Atlastherapie und Manuelle Kinderbehandlung (ÄGAMK).
