Treatments and fees

€3020 min

Active and passive exercise therapy for joints, muscles and posture — the treatment most prescriptions are written for.

A session usually mixes hands-on work with exercises you then repeat at home. Your therapist assesses movement, strength and pain behaviour at the first appointment and adjusts the plan as the prescription runs. We write the home exercises down for you; nobody is expected to remember them.

€3625 min

Hands-on mobilisation of single joints and the surrounding soft tissue, given by therapists with the manual therapy certificate.

Manual therapy needs its own entry on the prescription and its own qualification — statutory funds only settle it with therapists who hold the certificate. Eleven of our staff do; the location pages say who works where.

€2920 min

Classical massage of a defined body region to reduce muscle tone — prescribable, and also bookable as a self-pay appointment.

On a prescription, massage covers one region — usually the neck and shoulders or the lower back. As a self-pay appointment you can also book 40 minutes for two regions. Massage is a treatment, not a wellness offer: we do not sell packages or subscriptions.

€4230 min

Supervised on the training floor; groups of no more than three.

Loaded training on rehabilitation equipment, supervised throughout — the bridge between treatment couch and everyday load.

KGG needs a separate prescription entry and may only be given in practices approved for it. Ours are Westerfilde, Huckarde and Brambauer. Wear clothes you can move in; we provide towels.

€3230 min

45 min €47 · 60 min €61. Compression bandaging is billed separately.

Gentle decongestive technique for swelling after surgery, injury or in chronic oedema.

Given only by therapists with the MLD/KPE certificate. The prescription states the duration, and the duration is what the doctor decided — we cannot shorten or extend it. Mengede, Castrop-Rauxel and Waltrop carry most of this work.

€4830 min

Treatment for adults after damage to the central nervous system, on the Bobath or PNF concept.

Longer sessions, slower progress, and goals set with you rather than for you — walking to the bus stop, getting up from a low chair, holding a cup. Castrop-Rauxel is our main site for this; Westerfilde also treats ZNS prescriptions.

€4430 min

Work on the temporomandibular joint and the muscles around it, usually referred by a dentist.

Craniomandibular dysfunction is usually prescribed as manual therapy with a jaw indication. Bring your splint if you have one. Waltrop and Mengede have the longest experience with this.

€6545 min

Self-pay. Some private policies contribute — please check your own tariff first.

Return-to-sport testing and loaded rehabilitation for athletes, at Huckarde.

A 45-minute block: hop and strength testing, then loaded work on the sled track. We report the numbers to you and, if you want, to your club physio. We do not clear anyone to play — that decision belongs to your doctor.

€14910 × 60 min

Paid by you first. Many statutory funds reimburse a share of certified prevention courses under § 20 SGB V — the amount and the conditions are set by your fund, so ask them before you enrol.

A ten-week group course in Brambauer: how the spine takes load, and what to do about it at work.

Groups of eight to twelve, Monday or Wednesday evening, no prescription needed. You receive an attendance certificate at the end, which is what your fund will ask for. We cannot promise reimbursement and we do not process it for you.
