During rehabilitation, there is increasing attention to techniques that focus not only on alleviating symptoms but also on addressing the root causes of the issues. One such approach is Dorn therapy, which represents a holistic perspective. This therapy aims to restore the spine and the surrounding structures, providing patients with the opportunity for pain-free healing. The Dorn method is effective not only in pain relief but also in improving movement functions. During the procedure, the therapist examines the entire body to uncover the underlying causes of complaints. The goal of the method is to…

Soft Tissue Manual Therapy and Trigger Point Treatment for Musculoskeletal Issues
A musculoskeletal disorders rehabilitation has focused on active movement for decades, such as physiotherapy and movement therapy. These methods are essential for facilitating recovery; however, it is worth considering other complementary procedures during rehabilitation that can accelerate the healing process. Below, we present soft tissue manual therapy and trigger point therapy as effective methods. Trigger points are small, palpable knots in the muscles that develop as a result of accumulated muscle tension. The presence of these knots impairs muscle function, causing pain and increased vulnerability. The imbalance of muscles also affects the body’s functioning, as tight muscles not only hinder blood circulation but can also create joint blockages and even…

Visceral Osteopathy – Manual Treatment of Internal Organs
The modern medicine increasingly recognizes that the body is not merely a collection of separate parts, but a complex system where every element is intertwined. Various therapeutic methods, such as osteopathy and visceral therapy, focus on the health and functioning of the body as a whole. The task of manual therapists is to seek the source of pain or discomfort not only in the problematic area but also to consider every aspect of the body. The function of the stomach, liver, intestines, and other internal organs is just as important as the movement of muscles and bones, as there is a close interrelationship between them. The condition of the internal…

The Potential of Gene Therapy
The treatment of genetic disorders is one of the greatest challenges in medicine. Traditional therapies, which typically focus on alleviating symptoms, do not address the problem by eliminating the underlying causes. However, scientific research is continuously evolving, and more and more promising solutions are emerging, showing progress in the fields of gene therapy and gene editing. Gene therapy aims to restore faulty genes or improve their function. This process is generally carried out through molecular biological techniques that allow new genes to be introduced into the cell nucleus. A gene, located in the cell nucleus, refers to a specific segment of DNA that plays a key role in regulating life…
