The story...
"I recall it just as if it was yesterday, september 1989 : I graduated from university and started in my private clinic. We all know this feeling, don't we ? How do I examine my first shoulder patient, what treatment strategy am I going to apply ? It was a rather amateuristic event, I must say, but fortunately my patient appreciated the effort.

Since my father was already since many years the leader of Dr. Cyriax's International Teaching Team, I grew up in a rather special atmosphere which allowed me to discover quite soon some new therapeutic worlds. I inherited the passion for relevant diagnosis and therapy, which also became the basis of the motivation of the ETGOM Teaching Team.

The continuous development of specific tools which enhance your therapeutic creativity is bringing us all over the world. Motivating and inspiring colleagues, always keeping in mind an open vision, is for me and my ETGOM colleagues not only a pleasure but also a passion, a passion we are happy to share with you.
Just "good" is simply not good enough for us.

Thanks to your participation we are also able to develop new impulses, away from "dogma-thinking", which already resulted in film productions, books, etc.
Actually, both of our stories are very similar, because as a therapist you and I share the same goals...
and we try to offer the best for our patients, because this is our pride."

Steven De Coninck, MSc PT, Chair ETGOM.

What does the name "Cyriax" tell you ? "Just a bit of friction massage and aspecific manipulations...oldfashioned !" is a reaction sometimes expressed by colleagues who have heard about Cyriax but who are not familiar with the actual content value behind this name.
Indeed, Dr Cyriax, the "Einstein of orthopaedic medicine" created a valuable diagnostic system, but a system which is also subject to quite some evolution. Some hypotheses have been refuted, others have been confirmed by qualitative research and others need more investigation. Several techniques have been abandoned, others have been optimised. Modern updated Orthopaedic Medicine is a very strong diagnostic and treatment concept, which is not a "stand alone" concept, in contrast to some other methods. It is an open vision system compatible with different other views and approaches in the musculoskeletal field, but modern Orthopaedic Medicine provides an absolute step stone for all therapists who are involved in diagnosis and treatment of soft tissue lesions.
We avoid "artificial hypercomplication" and "wishful thinking" procedures, too frequently seen in our profession, we prefer to focus on relevant and reliable clinical reasoning procedures and research.
Discover this fascinating world and enhance your diagnostic and therapeutic skills. ETGOM courses are offered world wide.

The European Teaching Group of Orthopaedic Medicine (ETGOM) offers continuing education courses for health professionals in updated Cyriax orthopaedic medicine : clinical examination with emphasis on relevant clinical reasoning, diagnosis, differential diagnosis and conservative treatment of soft tissue injuries of the musculoskeletal system. Frequently used treatment options are : transverse friction massage, spinal and peripheral manipulation, mobilization, spinal traction, home exercises-self treatment strategy, injection and infiltration. We also incorporate, when indicated, the use of Radial Shock Wave Therapy
