The use of heat for certain disorders of the musculoskeletal system has been well established for a very long time. In our practice, we can offer targeted thermotherapy, for example for back pain, thereby helping to relieve symptoms through a non-pharmacological approach.
Public health services
Services offered by the Austrian Health Plan (for patients with insurance in Austria)
Annual check up for disease prevention
Every person over 18 with an Austrian health insurance can make use of a annual check up for disease prevention. This includes a physical examination by a medical doctor, a detailed laboratory analysis, and medical interview tu sum up the findings and help prevent disease and its burdens.
We recommend all of our patients to make use of this offer!
Laboratory Analysis
We have a small in-house laboratory which allows us a quick analysis of inflammation parameters, blood cell counts, cardiac enzymes and coagulation.
For further laboratory work, we have a renowned partner laboratory in Innsbruck where to send blood samples and which offers the entire spectrum of laboratory diagnostics.
Austrian programme for pregnant women and children
In Austria, there is a special prevention programme for pregnant women's and children's health, called the "Mutter-Kind-Pass".
Whenever you are employed and insured in Austria, and are pregnant, or have children, you can make use of this programme.
We offer all the examinations set by the programme which do not require a specialist.
Traumatology
We can offer in-house x-ray exams to find or exlude fractures.
Furthermore, we can treat cuts and other small wounds quickly.
Skin surgery
We offer small skin sugeries like the excision of suspect skin lesions, which can then be sent to a reliable institute for pathology, to detect or exclude malignancies.
Infusion therapy
Many times, intravenous therapy is superior to oral therapy. We offer a wide range of infusions to treat the most common complaints.
Treatment of chronic wounds
Chronic wounds require particularly intensive care. We are happy to provide this and, if needed, can take swab samples or arrange additional laboratory testing.
X-ray
We are equipped with a modern digital X-ray system that enables rapid diagnostics with low radiation exposure.
Electrocardiogram
The electrocardiogram (ECG) has been the gold standard in the diagnosis of cardiac arrhythmias, circulatory disorders, and other heart diseases for over 100 years. We are equipped with a modern 12-lead ECG that enables rapid detection of the most important cardiac conditions.
Thermotherapy
Electrotherapy
Through the targeted application of electrical current, muscle and nerve activity can be positively influenced. This often leads to relief of certain musculoskeletal complaints.
Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy for warts is a common treatment method in which the wart is frozen using extreme cold (often liquid nitrogen at −196 °C) to destroy the infected skin cells and cause the wart to die off.
