Conducting sling table therapy.
- Examination: The therapist conducts a thorough medical history and physical examination to determine the appropriate treatment techniques.
- Treatment: The patient is placed on the suspension table, and various body parts are suspended in slings. The therapist then performs passive or active movements to promote mobilization and relief.
- Duration of treatment: A session usually lasts between 30 and 60 minutes.
- Frequency of sessions: Depending on the type and severity of the complaints, several sessions per week may be necessary.
What you need to consider before sling table therapy

- Preparation: No special preparations are required, but comfortable clothing can be helpful.
Debriefing and Consultation
After the sling table therapy, the therapist will discuss the results and your reaction to the treatment. The therapist will assess whether further sessions are necessary and how the therapy can be integrated into the overall treatment plan. Additional recommendations may include exercises for home, other physiotherapy measures, or adjustments in daily life to support healing and functionality.
