Positive effects of dynamic extension therapy

Treatment with the SWiNGMED device achieves gentle stretching of the muscles and ligaments, a gentle separation of the surfaces of the small vertebral joints and reduced pressure (negative pressure) around the intervertebral discs. It is due to its direct impact on the intervertebral disc that the treatment helps promote regeneration of the disc (supplying nutrients via the vertebrae by way of diffusion); in addition, bulges and prolapses of intervertebral discs may recede as a result.

Based on the experience gained from numerous treatments following the principle of dynamic extension therapy, this method is a beneficial medical innovation and enhancement of the spectrum of therapies aimed at treating spine-related diseases and pain. In some cases, it can even be an alternative to disc surgery.

Zahlreiche positive Effekte

Over 60,000 treatments following the principle of dynamic extension of the spine carried out by Dr. Ferdinand Gundolf (orthopaedic practice in Kufstein) and Dr. Erich Mur (University Clinic of Innsbruck) as well as in other treatment centres (including eight Austrian spa centres) have shown highly successful results with numerous patients (success rate of over 80%):

• Relief of pain
• Muscle relaxation
• Improved mobility
• Improvement of sleep disturbances
• In many cases, surgery has been delayed or even avoided completely.
• Dynamic extension therapy is easily combinable with other physical treatments (e.g. exercise therapy) The therapy is generally well tolerated by patients and involves a low treatment risk.
