I would be happy to advise you!
Who am I?
My name is Carmen Heinz. I am a specialist in orthopedics and trauma surgery in the specialist team of .
The shoulder joint is one of the most complicated joints in the human body.
The treatment of the shoulder (rotator cuff, impingement syndrome, calcified shoulder (tendinosis calcarea, biceps tendon, etc.) therefore requires a lot of experience.
I treat a wide variety of shoulder diseases in a conservative way.
The aim of any therapy is treatment with full recovery without surgery.
Which therapy achieves the best results in the long term can only be determined after looking at all of the information (Examination, X-ray, ultrasound, MRI, etc.) be assessed.
You can find me in:

Physical forms of therapy
- Ice / cryotherapy (cold therapy)

- Tape system (kinesio tape)
Kinesio tape
The Kinesio tape of Shoulder joint is a very gentle and effective complementary therapy for physical therapy.
There are elastic bands in a specific tape system on the skin applied, which remain there for a total of approx. 4 weeks (changing the tape every 7 days).
The Tape has a relaxing effect on the stressed Shoulder muscles and thus improves muscle function. Due to the increased removal of inflammatory substances and the increased outflow of Lymph fluid the increased internal joint pressure decreases in the affected area.
Pain at rest and movement decrease, the feeling of movement improves and joint function is economized by restoring a better muscle balance. The whole Healing process becomes effective supported and accelerated.
