Craniofacial Kinetic Science
In Switzerland, the medicine of the mountains connects with high-tech medicine in an unexciting way. The successful integration of both systems is important to us in our treatment philosophy. We treat out patients according to the Basel University concept of Craniofacial Kinetic Science. The aim is to rehabilitate by using this body-oriented functional therapy. It is used as an adjuvant supplement in oral and facial surgery surgery surgery, orthodontic corrections or logopedic therapies. The internationally recognised program qualifies for activities in the diagnosis and treatment of patients as well as for teaching, research and counselling in Craniofacial Kinetic Science at numerous departments in clinics, rehabilitation centers, in therapeutic institutions, universities and training institutions around the world.
