About me

I am an OMT physiotherapist specializing in musculoskeletal disorders and pain management based in Helsinki. I have over a decade of experience in patient care. My areas of expertise include issues related to the back and pelvic region, lower limb and sports physiotherapy, as well as the assessment and treatment of stress injuries in children and adolescents. I currently work at Terveystalo's locations in Redi and Itäkeskus.

I am dedicated to helping clients of all ages who suffer from musculoskeletal problems, pain or exercise-related issues. I believe that everyone has the right to individualized and effective treatment. In my practice, I prioritize identifying the root causes of problems through thorough assessment and examination. Based on this, I create a personalized treatment plan that best supports your goals and needs.

In my practice, I combine manual techniques, such as soft tissue, joint, and fascial treatment, with carefully and individually designed exercise instructions. I also perform lower limb analyses and prepare custom orthotics. I use acupuncture as part of a holistic pain management approach.

I have worked with representatives from numerous sports, both at the amateur and professional levels. For example, I have collaborated with players from the SM-liiga in hockey, the Veikkausliiga in football, Finnish Tour golfers, and Korisliiga basketball players. I have a strong background in football, but I currently focus on golf and supportive strength training.

I established this site to share research-based information as well as insights from my clinical work on the underlying factors, symptoms, and treatment options for musculoskeletal disorders. I hope my writings provide assistance to those suffering from pain and to anyone interested in understanding their body's functions better. The articles are not direct treatment guidelines, but they can offer tips to improve quality of life and reduce potential pain.

If you are currently suffering from any pain condition, I recommend contacting a qualified physiotherapist or doctor. You can also ask me for advice via email, but it is often difficult to determine the root causes of pain conditions remotely, so I unfortunately cannot provide a precise treatment plan online.
