Technical orthopaedics: an essential part of orthopaedic care
Technical orthopaedics is a central component of specialist medical training in orthopaedics and plays an important role in practical work, particularly in private practice.
Use of orthopaedic aids
Orthopaedic aids such as crutches, bandages, splints, corsets, orthopaedic shoes or inserts are an integral part of the therapy for functional and structural disorders of the musculoskeletal system. These aids complement orthopaedic treatment and are often used as a stand-alone form of therapy.
Advantages of orthopaedic aids
- They often replace the classic plaster cast treatment.
- They enable early mobilisation after injuries or operations.
- They promote healing and restore the functionality of the musculoskeletal system.
Teamwork for optimal care
Orthopaedic specialists and orthopaedic technicians work closely together to ensure that the care provided is effective and precisely tailored to the patient's needs. Both bring extensive knowledge of technical orthopaedics to the table in order to develop individually adapted solutions for patients.
Orthopaedic aids – support and prevention
Orthopaedic aids facilitate the treatment of many musculoskeletal disorders, making it more comfortable and effective.
- Torn ligaments: today, an individually adjustable splint can be used instead of a plaster cast, e.g. for the ankle. This often allows immediate full weight-bearing, which protects the spine and significantly reduces the risk of thrombosis.
- Degenerative spinal diseases: lumbar orthoses relieve irritated vertebral joints and improve mobility.
- Prevention: Orthoses, splints and bandages are used not only for treatment but also for prevention – for example, when lifting heavy loads or gardening.
Healthy feet – the basis for quality of life
Healthy feet are crucial for well-being into old age. Our practice offers the most modern insole care:
- Pedobarography: Computer-aided footprint for precise analysis.
- Dynamic control measurement: optimal adjustment of the insole using computer-assisted technology.
With these tools and methods, we promote effective therapy and preventive support for your health and mobility.
Effective collaboration for optimal care
Direct communication between the specialist and the orthopaedic technician offers our patients significant advantages. It ensures qualified, seamless and individually tailored care that meets the highest standards of precision and effectiveness.
