Who is the treatment suitable for?
Treatment for shoulder complaints
At MSK Centrum, we do not only look at the shoulder itself when dealing with shoulder complaints. We first examine the alignment of the spine.
The shoulder is highly dependent on the posture and alignment of the spine. An abnormal alignment can cause long-term overloading of the shoulder, causing complaints to persist or recur repeatedly.
The treatment is aimed at correcting these postural deviations so that the load on the shoulder decreases. When the spine becomes better balanced, the shoulder is given the space to move normally again, allowing muscles, tendons, and joints to rest and recover.
What you can expect:
Personalized and targeted treatment
Short waiting times and clear explanations
Safe, controlled corrections without cracking
What does our process look like?
1. First contact & appointment
You contact us to schedule an appointment. We briefly discuss your shoulder complaints and expectations.
2. Intake interview
During the intake interview, we clearly map out your complaints, medical history, and the progression of the shoulder pain.
3. Physical & diagnostic examination
During the examination, we literally visualize the alignment of the spine. The position of the vertebrae is drawn on the back, making it visible where deviations are located and how this affects the shoulder load. This is done according to the principles of the Sickesz Method.
4. Discussion of the treatment plan
You will receive a clear treatment plan, tailored to your shoulder complaints and personal situation. We clearly explain what you can expect.
5. Treatment phase
With small, targeted pressure, vertebrae are better aligned step by step.
This is done in a controlled manner and without cracking, according to the Sickesz Method.
6. Evaluation & conclusion
Together we assess the result and see if further treatment is necessary.
7. Aftercare and prevention
You will receive advice to prevent the recurrence of shoulder complaints and to keep your body in balance as much as possible.

Ratings from our patients
MSK Centrum scores an average of 9 out of 10.
The experiences of our patients show what a treatment can mean.
MSK medicine has, so to speak, changed both my daily and athletic life. I was a chronic back patient and had already undergone extensive physiotherapy and manual therapy, but the complaints were never fully resolved. In just a few sessions at MSK, that was rectified! I could hardly believe it. I have also taken up judo again, and with all that falling, things can occasionally shift out of place. With an appointment about once or twice a year, the doctor realigns my back, neck, and hips, and I am ready to go again. I am now 63 years old and have been practicing judo again since I was 57. While judo might be somewhat extreme, what matters most is that I am no longer limited by pain during movement in my daily life.
A very skilled and caring physician! She helped me tremendously with my hip problem. This method has cured me of migraines and stomach issues. Highly recommended.
Very satisfied; my appointment requests receive prompt responses. Every effort is made to schedule them as soon as possible.
No more treatments offered than necessary and effective
I visited MSK Centrum due to long-term neck and shoulder complaints. During the initial consultation, extensive time was taken to map out my symptoms. The explanation regarding the cause of my complaints was clear and understandable. After a few treatments, I noticed a distinct improvement in my range of motion and the pain decreased. The practice feels professional and calm, and I felt that my concerns were taken seriously. I would certainly recommend MSK Centrum to people with similar complaints.
