The McKenzie Method of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT) is a world-renowned algorithm used to evaluate and treat spine pain and dysfunction. Practitioners with the "Cert MDT" are highly trained and certified after intensive training and testing.

The method focuses on using the patient's own movements and positions to assess and treat the problem. The response to various movements and positions dictates the treatment plan, and continuous reassessment occurs at each visit to facilitate continued progress, or to direct any changes that need to be made. An essential part of the process is teaching the patient how to self-treat and to prevent future recurrences, so the patient is able to have control over their symptoms in the long term, minimizing the need for additional care. Basically, the McKenzie method is efficient and cost-effective care as it’s patient centered–not therapist centered.
