Due to the exceptional combination of specialist care (musculoskeletal medicine, McKenzie based mechanical movement assessment, neurology, rheumatology and anesthesiology) we are able to offer a customized treatment. To facilitate a proper diagnosis, Rugpoli also utilizes MRI diagnostics. The diagnosis and treatment will usually take place on the same day. Rugpoli has relatively short waiting times. We have a half-open MRI scanner available at Rugpoli Twente, Veluwe, Brabant and Randstad. MRI's for Rugpoli Hofstad and Amsterdam are performed at Rugpoli Randstad.

Which symptoms and problems does the Rugpoli look at

• Back problems: acute, long term, post-operative residual symptoms, radiating symptoms, work related symptoms, lumbosacral stenosis, and osteoporotic collapsed fractures.
• Neck problems: acute, long term, post-operative residual symptoms, radiating symptoms in the arm or leg, work related symptoms
• Headaches
• Joint problems: shoulder, RSI, and hip problems 
• Post-accident symptoms, including whiplash

A musculoskeletal examination, mechanical examination and neurological examination, supported with MRI imagery, will often indicate one or several structures causing the pain. This structure can be injected, to help alleviate the pain.  

A combination of the musculoskeletal and mechanical treatment, with injections if necessary, can yield lasting results.
