What Is the McKenzie Method?

At CN Physiotherapy, we are happy to provide the McKenzie Method for assessing and treating pain of the spine and extremities.

This method, developed by world-renowned physiotherapist Robin McKenzie, focuses on the manipulation and treatment of the back, neck, arms, and legs.

It is a highly reputable and successful method that has been used by licensed physiotherapists for over 30 years.

A Research-Tested Approach

Due to the vast success of the McKenzie Method, it isn’t surprising that it is accepted as the most research-tested approach across the globe.

Our Ottawa physiotherapists are trained to examine and diagnose musculoskeletal issues, and the McKenzie Method is a strong tool for helping determine a diagnosis.

The method works by using a progression of mechanical forces to examine both the mechanical changes in the patient’s body, as well as any symptoms.

How the McKenzie Method Works

The McKenzie Method classifies the patient into a spinal or extremity category after a detailed mechanical assessment. Once this classification has been completed, the correct treatment plan can then be created with proper exercises, manual techniques, and patient education.

Comprehensive Assessment

A detailed evaluation helps identify how your spine or extremities respond to movement, allowing for an accurate diagnosis.

Personalized Treatment

Your physiotherapist develops a customized treatment plan using specific exercises, manual therapy, and education.

Long-Term Results

The McKenzie Method focuses on helping patients understand their condition while reducing pain and preventing future episodes.

Benefits of Using the McKenzie Method

One of the most beneficial aspects of physiotherapy is patient involvement and education.

The McKenzie Method highly encourages both of these aspects, in order for you to better understand how our specialized treatment services are helping to achieve your goals.

An important feature of the McKenzie Method is the initial assessment that allows physiotherapists to reach a safe, reliable, and accurate diagnosis before creating a treatment plan.

This also helps in making sure that both the therapist and yourself are on the same page from the very beginning.
