Eva Andersson received most of her education and training within Orthopedic Manual Therapy in Sweden. Thorough assessment, individualized treatment, prevention, and self-management was central in her training.
Eva uses Orthopedic Manual Therapy for the treatment and rehabilitation of neuromusculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. She combines techniques like spinal manipulation/mobilization, massage, and stretching to restore function and decrease pain and disability. These techniques are often supplemented with advice on physical activity, ergonomics, and rehabilitation.

Commitment to High Quality and Thorough Assessment
Patients need to know why they ended up with pain and/or dysfunction. They should expect accurate, detailed explanations about symptoms and education on how to manage and prevent pain. Successful treatment results are maximized by getting to the bottom of the problem, applying a combination of treatment modalities (as opposed to relying on a single method), and patient involvement.
Focus on Prevention and Self-Management
When things go wrong treatment may be needed, but this treatment should only be a short-term solution. Instead, prevention and self-management should be the main focus. This is central to my profession : to provide patients with the tools and knowledge to take care of themselves.
As a Registered Massage Therapist my treatments are covered by most insurance plans.
