Clinically active physiotherapist since 1987 in Stockholm. I have a master's degree in physiotherapy and a speciality in pain and pain treatment. I have a degree in Orthopedic manual therapy step 2 and an acupuncture degree in 1993 with further education in China and Japan.
I have been a clinical supervisor at Karolinska Institute’s acupuncture studies for physioterapy students and supervisor for physiotherapists during specialist training. I have an extensive experience of treating pain, migraines / headaches, shoulder pain, neck and backpain. Furthermore, I have degrees in sports medicine, nutritional physiology / body composition analysis and motivational conversations and perform treatments according to McKenzie, Mulligan and MET.
In addition to my clinical activities, I have researched at Karolinska Institute and published articles in pain, shoulder pain / treatment and migraines. You can find my publications further down.

More about my work
How I work as a physiotherapist:
The concept of physiotherapy is based on a holistic view and includes anamnesis, status, manual specific examination, functional diagnostics and planning of the patient's rehabilitation. The rehabilitation program must be based on the patient's unique needs, conditions and life situation.
What I can help you with:
-Muscular trigger points, muscle pain and muscle tension
-Lumbar spine problems – low back pain, stiffness, dysfunctions, sciatica, herniated disc, spinal stenosis, Spondylolisthesis, instability, postoperative rehab
-Hip / Pelvic Disorders , dysfunction, instability, osteoarthritis, trochanterit, postoperative rehab
-Chest/thoracic problems, dysfunction, stiffness, posture problems, tense and tired back muscles
-Neck problems - Neck disability, stiffness, dysfunction, headaches, dizziness, herniated discs, instability, postoperative rehab
-Shoulder problems, impingement, frozen shoulder and inflammation of tendons and muscles.
-posture
Treatment methods I use:
Based on the patient's diagnosis, the following treatments can be offered:
-mobilization according to different methods to regain function.
-Pain treatment with laser, acupuncture, muscle stimulation or TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation)
-training program.
-In addition to physiotherapy treatment, I also perform body composition analysis and nutritional counseling. I offer measurement of your body composition using Tanita Dual frequency BIA Technology .You get information on your weight, BMI, BMR (basal metabolism), fat percentage, fat mass (kg), muscle mass (kg), bone mass (kg), total body water percentage and visceral fat (belly fat deep within your abdominal cavity, surrounding important organs). Studies have shown that obesity and, above all, increased visceral fat increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes. With the help of the body composition analysis, you can get a clear overview of your physical status and also get information about the recommended and desired fat percentage and muscle mass based on your age group. You can evaluate the training or the effect of a diet on your body composition through measurements at regular intervals. You can also evaluate your muscle mass during rehab training.
