Conservative treatment as the first option

Experts from Germany and Austria discuss options for personalized medical care, taking into account guidelines, diagnostic procedures, and multimodal treatment approaches. They ask what type of conditions can be treated effectively without surgery, and when surgery may be required. The top priority is getting patients to be active. Supports and braces can be used additionally in these cases. They variously talk about practical experience as well as the evidence it is based on, for example in a presentation about the impact of supports on the muscles.
