The Dorn Method - Changing the Face of Back Therapy

Success doesn't have to be complicated! Dorn is gentle, safe, and probably one of the most effective treatments available that is also (thankfully) easy to learn. Dorn now boasts well over 36 years of history, and is growing in popularity throughout the world because of its amazing success stories.

Nothing makes me happier than to see people go away after a Dorn treatment, feeling so much better than when they arrived! Like so many, I've simply found the Dorn Method to be an extremely effective technique that works. It was developed in Germany and has now been used successfully for more than 35 years; many people report immediate, positive results and require only a few treatments.

The Dorn Method is a gentle, effective and safe way to correct misalignments of the Spinal Column and other joints, helping relieve back pain, neck pain, headaches, hip, sciatica, jaw, knee, shoulder and many more problem areas. It is also a true self help treatment, free of unpleasant side effects, completely safe with no medication being required. People who come for treatment are shown very simple tips and techniques to take away with them so they can help themselves to stay pain free.

In Germany the Dorn Method is growing from strength to strength. This photo was taken at the the 2007 Dorn Congress. For more information, please visit Dorn-Kongress website: www.dorn-kongress.de

What is the DORN METHOD?

Dorn consists of a range of simple exercises and techniques which aim to help joints and vertebrae slip back into their natural positions. In addition, a very gentle spinal back massage is given to safely stretch, align, energize and relax the spine.

A range of simple after care exercises will also be provided for you to take away and practise in order to help you benefit in the long term. For example, you will be shown a simple but effective short exercise to perform each day to help you keep your hip and lower back in place.

The Dorn Method offers long term benefits

The Dorn Method is a combination of three parts, which together provide an excellent maintenance and preventative joint care system designed to look after your body over the long term.

As well as the actual treatment, which focuses on looking for and correcting imbalances within the body, Dorn also promotes the use of better posture in day to day life. For example, simple suggestions include not sitting crossed legged or not slouching whilst seated in front of the computer at work; these are typical bad habits we fall into, and which over time can lead to health problems.

Dorn also teaches a set of simple, easy to learn self-help exercises which are designed to be taken away and practised at home to maintain balance in the body and good health over the long term. A few minutes spent each day for example on a simple leg length correction excercise, will help to keep the hip joint in place, and the spine sitting straight.
