Introduction to Gentle, Manual Joint- and Back-Therapy (GMT) by Dieter Dorn

By Krishnaprem

In a (medical) world full of technology and chemicals, a lot of so-called “alternative” but natural and simple knowledge and methods emerge as well. One method of treatment, which truly can be called simple, but absolutely effective and safe is the “Joint- and Back-Therapy by Dorn”.

Instead of implanting an artificial joint or conducting a discus operation on the spinal column, we are making use of this wonderful method and try to mobilise and correct all the joints in the body, which have gone slightly out of shape (due to accidents, daily habits etc.).

As we found out through our own experience, it is exactly this kind of slight dislocation, which leads to so much pain and suffering ! And to normalize a slight dislocation it usually does not take that much effort…

Without using technical devices or medicals, we are able with the “Method by Dorn” to balance the foundation of the human body towards the stable centre, which might have been lost due to the slight (almost unnoticeable) dislocation of a hip-joint, the sacrum-bone or a vertebra of the neck. Freedom from Pain is NOT a dream!!

The Method by Dorn is signified by:Simplicity, Safety and high Efficacy. It is the nervous impulse, which will flow again when the bones have been re-adjusted,enabling the life-energy (prana) to reactivate the bodies self-healing powers.

Dieter Dorn (66) is living in South-Germany (between Munich and Lake Geneva). Being a farmer, he is a naturalist with great interest for every living being. So, it is not much astonishing, that he took up a popular kind of manual treatment –after having come in contact with it by personal bodily suffering at a sciatic nerve- and intuitively developed it in a self-taught way without any anatomical / medical knowledge while applying it to others. Today, this method, which involves ALL the joints in the body, has been catching the attention of numerous natural healing practitioners, physiotherapists, medical doctors and even professors, providing immense basic help in the concept of the daily consultancy.

We owe it to Dieter Dorn, that it became possible in a most simple way to correct e.g. dislocated hip joints or to find and treat successfully affected spinal vertebrae quickly.Often, in almost an instance it is possible to eliminate uncurable pain, which is supposed to be caused by discus problems – as, according to Dorn´s findings, the real cause is another one!

In the course of our life, starting right at birth, we are exposed to many impacts, which can have a great influence on us. Be it with a difficult birth, accidents or a sudden fall. Such and other situations will often result in sometimes severe dislocations of one or more joints and/or vertebrae. Also, wrong (one-sided) habits at work or daily life in general, are crucial factors influencing our static structure of the body but also being an expression of our inner attitudes and emotional condition.

All these impacts can result in slight or severe dislocations and therefore blockages in all joints of the limbs and the spinal column and almost always will lead to pain in the soft structures (ligaments and muscles). Consequently, from our experience, other more subtle problems can arise in that chain, like weakness of inner organs or even emotional conditions.

The METHOD by DORN helps with acute ailments almost instantly, but even with chronic problems sometimes surprisingly quickly. Of course, we can expect long-time dislocations and maybe life-long ailments not to be healed in a very short time.

But “Almost everything is possible”, and “For miracles it takes a little longer”, which are also the titles of two profound books about this Method that have been written by a German medical Dr. of Orthopaedics, Michael Graulich (the translation of Vol.1 into English will soon be finished).

The METHOD by DORN is gentle and safe – not a single case of damages to have occurred are known by any (even lay-) practitioner so far. There are no contra-indications and therefore cannot be compared with Chiropractic techniques at all, as the treatment is not making use of quick movements or impulses, but flowing movements with punctuated, constant pressure.

This kind of technique enables a safe relief from pain, which almost always – when sufficiently applied and daily habits being controlled – leads to a stabilized painless condition.

The very outstanding aspect of the METHOD by DORN is the possibility to HELP ONESELF.
The patient will be instructed to regularly conduct certain exercises at home as self-treatment or by the help of another family member. Thus, the therapy will more quick lead to the desired result and the newly won, painless condition can be stabilized easily.

Everybody can do it – it is easy and safe!
With the METHOD by DORN we even have a tool at hand, with which we can meet organic weaknesses of the whole body.
As the spinal nerves supply the entire body with electro-magnetic impulses, i.e. organs like the heart, lungs, liver or kidneys.
At the moment, a dislocation of a spinal bone, which has effected a certain muscle-tension in that specific segment, is brought back to its natural position an improved supply of the correlated organs will occur instantly, leading possibly to detoxification reactions, cure and well-being.
