Rheumatic diseases

Rheumatic diseases are common, certainly among 2 million Dutch people. Rheumatism includes more than 100 chronic diseases of joints, muscles and tendons that can vary in severity from mild to serious, even disabling.

Three categories

The complaints are usually caused by repetitive movements, a prolonged static posture or a combination of both. Personal and work-related factors can also play an important role in the development, worsening or maintenance of RSI.
By analysing the cause and making changes, we can guide you in solving your complaints, including by using a muscle tension meter.

  • Inflammatory rheumatism. This includes conditions in which inflammatory reactions in the body damage joints, among other things. Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common form.

  • Osteoarthritis. This is where the cartilage in the joints deteriorates.
  • Soft-tissue rheumatism. This includes disorders of muscles, ligaments, tendons and the capsule around joints. Fibromyalgia is an example of this, but also hypermobility (too lax ligaments around joints)
