scientific research on RCPM

RCPM: a scientificly proven technology

Since 1993, the RCPM method has been tested in various controlled studies and clinical experiments. The resulting question of al these studies was which specific movement and how much movement is beneficial and which mechanisms can be used for eliminating the pain that is caused by the spine. Studies were held together at various national and international institutes. These institutes, linked to universities, have focused mainly on afflictions of muscular functions and atrophy, orthopedic complaints, anatomy, biophysics and biomechanics. 

Conclusions:

RCPM ® reduces pain when sitting (p < 0.01)

RCPM ® stimulates the lumbar disc

RCPM ® reduces oedema (p < 0.05)
