    Study Notes

    McKenzie Method

    • The McKenzie method is also known as Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT).

    Centralization and Peripheralization

    • Centralization in the McKenzie method indicates improvement in the patient's condition, as the pain or symptoms move towards the spine.
    • Peripheralization in the McKenzie method indicates worsening of the patient's condition, as the pain or symptoms move away from the spine.

    Principle and Evaluation

    • The principle of the McKenzie method is to assess and treat patients with mechanical diagnosis, where the patient's symptoms are reproduced and abolished with mechanical forces.
    • The McKenzie method evaluates the severity of the patient's problem by assessing the patient's response to repeated movements and positioning, which helps to identify the underlying mechanical diagnosis.
