Detecting and treating movement pain: orthopaedics.
Orthopaedics
Usually diseases of our spine or joints are painful and interfere with our movements. This raises the question: How can we help our patients best?
A careful examination is the indispensable basis. The human body is a complicated system. Muscles, tendons, fasciae and joints are not to be considered separately, they are team players in the interaction of the musculoskeletal system. Symptoms such as pain, restricted movement or loss of function may not even be perceived where the physical dysfunction lies.
At the beginning of our treatment, the localization of the cause of the complaint is in the center. If it is possible to localise the disease exactly, it can be treated purposefully. Thanks to our broad expertise, we have a wide range of medical procedures at our disposal. We treat at our sites in Flörsheim, Hattersheim and Hofheim.
Trauma surgery
Accidents during sports, at work and in the household cause damage to the musculoskeletal system. Careful diagnostics and therapy according to guidelines are necessary to ensure that these do not lead to permanent restrictions or permanent damage.
Thanks to our specialist expertise, we are in a position to provide initial treatment for occupational accidents at all 3 sites. If further BG treatment should be necessary, we have a medical clearance at the Flörsheim site. This allows us to treat occupational accidents on a long-term basis.
Sorts of therapy
Depending on your personal requirements and wishes, we can treat orthopaedic and accident surgery diseases conservatively and surgically.
Special services
In addition to the services of the statutory health insurance, we offer you a wide range of special services (so-called "individual health services").
For athletes
One focus of our practice is the care of athletes in case of injury, but also in case of overstrain-related diseases of tendons, joints and muscles.
For children and teenagers
Special skills are required for the treatment of children and adolescents.
For employers' liability insurance associations
The treatment of occupational accidents requires high claims on specialists.
Chirotherapy
Manual medicine, together with chiropractic therapy, is a medical school used for the treatment of dysfunctions of the musculoskeletal system
Operations
Outpatient and inpatient: Custom-made operations.
As experienced orthopaedists and trauma surgeons as well as hand surgeons and general surgeons with many years of experience, we always weigh up non-operative and operative treatment methods. If an operation cannot be avoided, modern diagnostics and innovative surgical techniques today offer the possibility of significantly improving the quality of life of our patients through precise surgery.
Thanks to our work as affiliated and locum doctors at the Red Cross Hospital in Frankfurt and our cooperation with the outpatient surgery centre in Hofheim, we are able to offer not only minor outpatient procedures but also numerous more complex procedures in comfortable outpatient and inpatient settings.
Hip and knee implantation
The implantation of hip and knee endoprostheses has become one of the most standardized surgical procedures.
Forefoot surgery
Our foot surgeons will find an individual solution for all foot problems that require surgical treatment.
Arthroscopic Surgery
The arthroscopic treatment of knees and shoulder joints has become an integral part of orthopaedics.
Shoulder surgery
Whether it is a tightness under the acromion, a dislocation of the shoulder or a rupture of muscles in the shoulder, the interaction of many factors is necessary for the shoulder.
Hand surgery
The hands, like hardly any other parts of the human musculoskeletal system, are extremely important organs of the body.
Implant removals
After an operative treatment of a bone fracture, a plate of screws or wires often remains.
Pain therapy
Pain therapy at the Rhine-Main Orthopaedic Centre.
Our practice offers pain therapy treatments for patients with acute and chronic pain. Chronic pain means that pain has been present for several months, is constant or recurs very frequently, and affects those affected physically, psychologically or socially, ultimately leading to a significantly reduced quality of life.
The aim of pain therapy treatment is not only to reduce pain, but also to improve quality of life and change the experience of pain. The following types of pain are treated in our practice:
Pain in the musculoskeletal system and muscles (neck, back, lower back, and joint pain)
Neuropathic pain
All types of headaches
tumor pain
Fibromyalgie
Pain caused by circulatory disorders
Pain associated with herpes zoster
