New patients always start with the first assessment. Returning patients can book directly: "Gyógytorna" in Salonic (opens in a new tab).

What is physiotherapy (gyógytorna)?

Physiotherapy is not a few exercises shown to you, but a planned, active phase of treatment. It stabilises the change achieved with manual therapy, develops muscle activation, movement control, strength and stability, and leads you gradually back to work or sport. The university-trained physiotherapists at MozgásKlinika Újlipótváros tailor the exercises to your anatomy and function.

We do not treat posture as a static “good” or “bad” position but as something your body regulates all the time: staying in the same position for long, little variety and your individual load tolerance can together influence symptoms. So the exercises also build variety of movement and load tolerance.

Why physiotherapy at MozgásKlinika Újlipótváros?

  • You get a personal exercise plan, not a generic workout.
  • The physiotherapist teaches and corrects every movement in person.
  • If it is part of your plan, you continue with home exercises chosen, taught and checked by your therapist.
  • The load is increased gradually.
  • The goal is a lasting result, not just short-term pain relief.

Types of physiotherapy we offer

McKenzie method

Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT), developed by Robin McKenzie, is an assessment and treatment system used mainly for spinal complaints: it looks at how particular positions and repeated movements change your symptoms.

Stabilisation exercises

Focus on segmental stabilisation and strengthening the muscles around the joints. Often used for back, low-back and shoulder pain, especially if you sit a lot.

Rehabilitation exercises

Support recovery after a sports injury or surgery, and can also prepare the tissues before an operation.

Sports rehabilitation

For athletes, from minor sprains to returning after a more serious injury, including the principles of safe movement.

Who is it for?

  • Back, neck and shoulder pain
  • Hip and knee pain
  • Flat feet and other foot problems
  • Mobilisation before surgery and rehabilitation after it
  • Returning to exercise after a sports injury
  • Chronic joint inflammation, ankylosing spondylitis (Bechterew's disease)

How does treatment work?

Treatment starts at your first visit, straight after the assessment.

  1. Accurate assessment

    The assessment looks at several findings together: range of motion, strength, movement control, movement patterns and compensations.

  2. A personal therapy plan

    We design exercises for you and, where appropriate, manual therapy techniques too.

  3. Practice and correction

    We teach you the correct technique so you can safely keep practising at home.

What to expect at your first visit

Where does it sit in the MozgásPiramis®?

Physiotherapy plays a part at every level of the MozgásPiramis®: at level 1 it works with manual therapy to relieve pain, and at levels 2–5 it is the main tool for restoring range of motion, building strength, developing functional stability and returning to full activity.

Frequently asked questions

Will it hurt after a session?

At most you may feel mild muscle soreness. Physiotherapy is essentially a therapeutic workout, so afterwards you should feel pleasantly tired rather than in pain.

How soon will I feel better?

Many patients notice a difference after the first few sessions, but a lasting result needs a programme of several weeks. At level 1 of the MozgásPiramis® the clinic recommends 12 sessions, twice a week.

Do I need a referral?

No. You can book online without a referral.

What should I bring?

Comfortable sportswear and a change of shoes. We provide everything else.
