Dear visitor of our video gallery!
The treatment according to the rules of the Fascial Distortion Model (FDM) is an extremely successful solution for all therapists and doctors who are looking for a “hands-on” therapy. Visual diagnosis and brand new hands-on treatment techniques are highly effective and provide quick results.
We would like to thank all patients for agreeing to the video recordings and the FDM-colleagues for providing them, in particular Mr. Keisuke Tanaka, head of the Japanese FDM Association. Watching the videos, you will recognize the pain body gesture, but you will not yet be able to interprete the „human pain code“. All skills for the diagnostic analysis, you will learn in our training courses. Additionally, in the videos you see patients, sometimes feel pain during the treatment procedure. Don´t worry! Patients tolerate that kind of pain, because they immediately recognize the benefit of the FDM-treatment!

Treatment of knee pain which occurred spontaneously two weeks ago. Treatment to date: Immobilisation, no weight-bearing, NSAIDs. However, no substantial change achieved. MRI images were not diagnostic; an arthroscopy was initially refused by the patient who decided to see Dr Tanaka: Clinical tests showed significant restriction of extension and flexion, one-leg stand and squatting not possible. At the same time, assessment of the pain body language (a location at the lateral knee indicated, so-called lateral knee trigger band). After the treatment, significant improvement of all findings. Therapy duration: approximately 10 min.
