Strain Relief – Teil 1: Grundlagen: Ein neues Verfahren zur Behandlung chronischer Schmerzen im Bewegungsapparat am Beispiel von therapieresistenten, funktionellen Beschwerden in der unteren Extremität

Abstract

If a permanent load and stress exceeds the elastic limit of the bone, a slight plastic-elastic deformation of the osseous structures may occur. If the bone does not return to its original neutral shape a chronic tension in the trabecular matrix develops or remains. This in turn leads to permanent traction/pressure on the involved fascia, capsule, ligament and tendon structures, which have been shown to be non-extensible, with inevitable activation of the pain receptors interwoven within them. Chronic, sometimes therapy-resistant complaints in the bone area are the result.This article introduces (Bone) Strain Relief, a new conservative treatment concept that can be used to manually bend/rotate/push pathological, invisible bone “deformities” back into their original anatomical position in order to minimize the permanent tension/shear/pull on fascia and tendons and thus very successfully reduce or even eliminate chronic pain.
