Innovative techniques of Ortospina's work

Indiba® Activ

INDIBA® Activ represents one of the most advanced therapeutic methods in modern physical therapy and rehabilitation. It is based on patented 448 kHz radiofrequency technology, known as the Proionic® System, which stimulates cellular activity, improves microcirculation, and accelerates tissue metabolism.

This method enables faster tissue recovery in a safe and comfortable way, reduces pain and inflammation, and improves mobility — without damaging healthy tissue. It is therefore used in both acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions, such as various injuries, back pain, tendon inflammation, bursitis, and more.

At Ortospina, we use INDIBA both as a standalone treatment and in combination with manual techniques or therapeutic exercises to achieve the best possible results.

Physiotherapy procedures

Spinal Decompression Therapy

The therapy is performed on a traction table that relieves the spine. This therapy is pleasant and painless, and provides excellent results when applied correctly. It is suitable for certain patients with lower back and/or neck pain.

A mandatory examination by our physiotherapists is required before the therapy, and the traction itself is used in combination with manual techniques and exercises.

Our physiotherapists have been using this therapy for 15 years, and we utilize this extensive experience in the best possible way.

Shockwave Therapy

A non-invasive therapeutic method that uses sound waves on the painful area to reduce pain and accelerate tissue healing.

Although it can be applied to various diagnoses, in the world of orthopedic medicine it is particularly popular due to its scientifically proven effectiveness in treating inflammatory tendon conditions and resulting calcifications.

Some indications for shockwave therapy include: calcific tendinitis of the shoulder, tennis and golfer’s elbow, De Quervain syndrome, trigger finger, runner’s knee, jumper’s knee, Achilles tendinopathy, plantar fasciitis/heel spur, and more.
