Growing Strong Together! Expert Pediatric Orthopedic Care from Day One
In our conservative pediatric orthopedic practice, we support young patients with compassion, empathy, and outstanding medical and therapeutic expertise. Our treatments are individualized, age-appropriate, and designed to support natural development while building confidence and trust in one’s own body. We pay careful attention to the unique challenges of growth, aiming to detect and gently correct developmental issues at the earliest possible stage. Our ultimate goal is to ensure children and adolescents experience effortless movement, leading to a pain-free and active life.
Our Therapeutic Approach
Our therapy integrates orthopedic, osteopathic, and neurophysiological methods tailored individually to each child's needs. Our interdisciplinary team, consisting of experienced physicians specialized in orthopedics, cardiology, internal medicine, pulmonology, physiotherapy, and dedicated nursing staff, collaborates closely to provide optimal care. We consult additional specialists, such as pediatric orthopedists, neurologists, or experts from other disciplines when necessary, ensuring comprehensive and holistic treatment at all times.
Parents as Essential Therapy Partners
We recognize the essential role families play in a child's development and actively involve them in the therapeutic process. Simple home exercises, practical advice for an active daily life, and ongoing support empower parents and family members, making them key contributors to therapeutic success. Together, we achieve lasting progress, enriching the lives of the entire family.
The Road Back to Mobility – Rehabilitation After Major Procedures
Recovering from orthopedic surgeries, such as joint replacements or spinal procedures, requires specialized care. The first few weeks are critical in preserving long-term mobility and preventing complications. Even after fractures and accidents, targeted rehabilitation plays a vital role in accelerating recovery, ensuring sustainable results, and restoring an active lifestyle. At PhysioKlinik Aitrachtal, we focus on a personalized, step-by-step approach to help patients regain strength, function, and confidence.
Our Core Competence – Scoliosis Treatment
Pediatric Osteopathy
Osteopathy is central to our scoliosis therapy. With targeted techniques, we address muscular imbalances, enhance mobility, and stabilize posture. Special attention is given to natural breathing, as chest mobility is often restricted in scoliosis patients. We also address internal organs potentially impacted by scoliosis.
Many functional impairments noticeably improve after just a few osteopathic sessions—in numerous cases, osteopathy can prevent or delay surgery. Additionally, gentle manual techniques are employed to alleviate tension, blockages, and functional discomfort, effectively addressing accompanying symptoms like poor posture, headaches, and growing pains, ensuring holistic, pain-free improvement in quality of life.
Schroth Therapy – Individualized Scoliosis Correction
The three-dimensional Schroth therapy is a proven approach for targeted scoliosis correction. Specific breathing techniques and targeted exercises correct spinal misalignment, stabilize posture, and provide long-term relief.
Our certified Schroth therapists possess extensive expertise in scoliosis treatment, providing tailored therapy combining strengthening, stretching, and conscious breathing to actively reposition the spine and sustainably stabilize core muscles.
