Pain therapy

In my work, I combine evidence-based pain therapy, functional training therapy and medical yoga to create a holistic therapeutic approach. I have been passing on my knowledge to colleagues in the field of therapy at universities and in training and further education courses for over 25 years.

Pain therapy

100% e-learning

If you don't have the time to complete a face-to-face course at a training institute, or if you don't enjoy sitting in front of your laptop at fixed times and following Zoom seminars for hours on end, then our distance learning course in pain therapy is the ideal solution for you.

You can complete all seven parts of the course flexibly and completely as e-learning - 100% independent of time and place, without any exams or time pressure. You determine your own learning pace and can work through the content at your own pace.

In this course, there is no prescribed interaction, no assignments to submit, no patient examples to work on and no mid-term exams. You have the freedom to move through the course step by step and completely independently.

  • Period: You have a total of two years to complete the seven modules.

  • Chapter structure: Each chapter is designed so that you can complete it in 20-30 minutes.

  • Flexibility: Whether between two patient appointments, after work, in the doctor's waiting room or on the go - you can study anytime and anywhere.

In this way, you will receive in-depth training in pain therapy that can be seamlessly integrated into your everyday life - without pressure, but with maximum flexibility.
