How symptoms and range of movement change with these repeated movements and positions provides the clinician with information that they use to understand the nature of problem.
- Classification: based on assessment the symptoms of spine and limbs are classified into 3 subgroups: derangement syndrome, dysfunction syndrome and postural syndrome. There is also subgroup "other" (non-mechanical syndromes in which MDT does not work) which accounts for less of 3% cases. The choice of exercises in the McKenzie method is based upon the direction (flexion, extension or lateral shift of the spine).
- Treatment: The aims of the therapy are: reducing pain, centralization of symptoms (symptoms migrating into the middle line of the body) and the complete recovery of pain.
