Hi. My name is Kathrin and I’m a physiotherapist based in Vienna.
Physio Retreat 2026
Physio retreat in the Algarve: 5-day intensive treatment for jaw, head and neck pain. Individual therapy based on the CRAFTA® concept at Salema Eco Camp, Portugal.
I’m specialized in Crafta Therapy
“Crafta” is a manual therapy concept. It mainly appeals to patients with pain in the head, neck and jaw area. The focus is on treating patients with the following symptoms such as:
Jaw pain, headache, tinnitus, dizziness, any kind of nerve pain in the head and face area, unspecific (without cause) symptoms in the head / jaw / face area.
Cracking jaw joint and / or grinding in the jaw (bruxism) are among my specialities. I also look after children with crossbites in collaboration with dentists and orthodontists. Support patients before and after jaw operations (for example Corrective osteotomies) and I do have a interdisciplinary work with ENT doctors.
In close cooperation with ENT´s, therefore, I am providing Manual Therapy treatments for muscicians, who, because of Noise disturbance, wrong Posture of the Body (because of carrying/Holding Instruments), develope painful Symptoms in the areas of Head, Spine, ear and/of Jaw.
Physiotherapy vs. Coaching
“Body and mind influence each other – and both deserve attention.”
Based on the “Biopsychosocial model” I often combine physiotherapy with systematic coaching. That means that pain, health, and well-being arise from the interaction of biological, psychological and social factors. When we consider all three areas, change becomes more sustainable and effective.
Pain, tension, or recurring complaints often have not only physical, but also emotional or systemic causes. By considering both levels, we achieve more sustainable changes. This allows for more lasting results because we address not only symptoms, but also the underlying connections.
