McKenzie Approach

McKenzie Approach

The McKenzie Method® of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy® (MDT) is an internationally researched and acclaimed system of assessment and management for spinal and extremity musculoskeletal disorders developed by New Zealand Physiotherapist Robin McKenzie. It has been widely used all over the world for more than 60 years. Most musculoskeletal pain is affected by everyday activities, movements and postures. Some of these can aggravate the pain and some may bring relief. By a systematic evaluation of his patients, New Zealand physiotherapist Robin McKenzie found that certain movements and postures could often provide a strategy for patients to control or eliminate their own pain and restore their function. This approach requires extensive additional education as well as passing a practical examination resulting in an MDT certification.
