The term "orthopaedic medicine" comes from Dr. J. Cyriax, M.D., M.R.C.P.
He has devoted his entire life developing a diagnostic method that, because of its basic simplicity,
can be considered as genial, and in which history and clinical examination regain their fullest rights
.
Symptoms and signs are interpreted and catalogued via 'patterns'. A pattern is
a particular functional behaviour of a disorder or a group of disorders.
For most of the disorders, a local, direct, efficient and economical treatment can be offered.
For a long time, the entire system has proven its efficiency in everyday's practice and it is now, for many doctors and physiotherapist, a most valuable asset in
their diagnostic and therapeutic set of instruments.
However, although the techiques are simple, for any treatment to be successful,
accurate diagnosis is vital and considerable detail must be given on
the correct performance of each therapeutic technique .
