Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R)

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) is the medical specialty dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal conditions. Its focus is on conservative, non-surgical care to relieve pain, improve mobility and restore physical function.

PM&R is suitable for people with acute or chronic conditions affecting the muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments, bones or nerves. Common reasons for consultation include back and neck pain, shoulder, hip or knee problems, tendon injuries, osteoarthritis and chronic pain syndromes.

Following a comprehensive assessment, our specialists develop an individual treatment plan tailored to your needs. Depending on your condition, treatment may include medication for pain management, image-guided injections, shockwave therapy and close collaboration with physiotherapists.

The goal of PM&R is to reduce pain, improve mobility and help you return to your everyday activities, work or sports. In many cases, surgery can be avoided or postponed through appropriate conservative treatment.
