Ivana took the chance to get a treatment from Markus Erhard the first time he was in Croatia for a keynote in 2022, speaking about his own developed treatment method to officials of various associations in sports, like the Olympic Comittee, the basketball association, handball association, football association etc.

When she heard about a possible time slot, she drove 4 hours from Bologna to Istria. She was overwhelmed by the effects. Click for the video and see yourself.

General info on Markus Erhard’s treatment method:

MTME – Myofascial Taping according to Markus Erhard
MTME & ERHARD THERAPY
The revolutionary and unique method for pain relief, injury prevention and enhanced performance – Revolutionary diagnostics, strategy and approach.

The core of the MTME method is not just a new way of taping itself. The method is a new level of fascia orientated and movement efficiency orientated differential diagnosis and treatment of the Neuro-Myo-Fascial System (NMFS) and related posture and movement patterns.

Compensational tensions will be tracked and treated at its real sources and will be brought back to normal tension, instantaneously, within a split of a second (about 0.1 sec). With the same speed, muscle function and motor control will be restored back to normal by functionally controlling the fascial receptors at any time and during movement.

Since the MyofascialTape® (other properties than kinesiology tape) is maintaining a normal myofascial tension DURING MOVEMENT, it can break vicious circles of dysfunctional posture and compensational movement patterns and acute and chronic pain syndromes, in a revolutionary and instant way.

At the very moment the body experiences movement without pain or normal myofascial tension a lasting change is happening. By MTME the NMFS is now not busy compensating all the time, but open and accessible for new, or more likely forgotten movement patterns that can and will be retrained, as you see and learn it on the seminars, which can be compared to new programming or restoring of efficient movement patterns.

In the end, the focus of MTME is not on pain itself, but on the reorganisation of the Neuro-Myo-Fascial System and the new understanding and knowledge of the connections, and movement. That the pain mostly just disapears instantly, is just a result of the instant change in myfascial tension. Normal muscle function will be restored and the joints and muscles will be working and function in a natural way.

For MTME Markus has invented his own tape with special properties, flexotape® – MyofascialTape®. Both, the taping technique and the tape, although looking similar, cannot be compared to kinesiology taping or other taping techniques. Also the properties of flexotape® is unlike kinesiology tapes or other tapes.

Interview with Christian Klimek (Part 1)

Video description

Incredible results: After 1 treatment, professional handball player Christian Klimek is finally pain-free, stress-relieved and able to perform again after 6 years.

Christian has been a professional for 12 years and played for Lemgo in the 1st handball league until a year ago and has been back home for 6 months and is now with the Eulen Ludwigshafen (1st Bundesliga). For the last 6 years, an “800 Ibu” has been used on average every day to make the back pain in the lumbar spine more bearable.
For 6 years !!! Every day!

I’m going to get ahead a little … 4 weeks after the first treatment, Christian was with me for the second treatment and then told me this life-changing, good news. There will be a second video about this soon. And now, 6 weeks after the treatment, Christian is training again in team training!

After the first treatment, the movements got an efficiency and ease that he had never seen before. Squats that were very timid were immediately easy and well controlled. As if the brake pads were gone.

The pressure distribution on the feet has changed enormously and was nicely balanced in the end. But only after the upper body and arms have been treated!

The mobility in the lumbar spine and hips was approximately twice as much as before the treatment.

Since professionals are continually stressed and the muscles are tense again and again, a certain regularity of the treatment compensates for the deficits for me again and again, so that the performance potential can be fully exploited.
And I see this in just about every athlete who regularly participates in sport and therefore especially in professional athletes.

I do not stop treating when “only” the pain is gone, I often achieve this very quickly, I only stop when the movements in all areas of the musculoskeletal system have been restored well enough, ie the movement sequences are working well again and the Forces while walking, standing, moving, running, sprinting, throwing, etc. can be well distributed again.

The second half of the season started in the Bundesliga on February 7, 2021. The Eulen Ludwigshafen played against Frischauf Göppingen. Christian was there, played a strong game and was able to bring his performance to the field – painlessly.

The Rheinpfalz Zeitung had published a large article about Christian and the work with me the next day. Christian just said my treatments were AMAZING.
And in the second game Christian scored 8 goals. 100% quota!

Interview with Christian Klimek (Part 2)

“His method is unbelievable”, writes the newspaper Rheinpfalz and it says in the Sky interviews!

Incredible results: After 1 treatment, the professional handball player Christian Klimek is finally pain-free, stress-resistant and capable again after 6 years.
Christian has been a professional for 12 years and played for Lemgo in the 1st handball league until a year ago and has been back home for 6 months and is now with the Eulen Ludwigshafen (1st Bundesliga). For the last 6 years, an “800 Ibu” has been used on average every day to make the back pain in the lumbar spine more bearable. For 6 years !!! Every day!

After the first treatment, the movements got an efficiency and ease that he had never seen before. Squats that were very timid were immediately easy, dynamic and well controlled. As if the brake pads were gone.
The pressure distribution on the feet has changed a lot and was nicely balanced in the end. But only after the upper body and arms have been treated!

The range of motion in the lumbar spine and hips was approximately twice as much as before the treatment.

Since professionals are constantly under great strain and the muscles are tense again and again, a certain regularity of the treatment compensates for the deficits for me again and again, so that the performance potential can be fully exploited.
And I see this in almost every athlete who regularly does sport and therefore of course especially in professional athletes, whether footballers, handball players, runners, etc.

I don’t stop treating when the pain is gone (I often get it very quickly) I only stop when the movements in all areas of the musculoskeletal system have been restored well enough, that is, the movement sequences are working well again and the strengths when walking , Standing, moving, running, sprinting, throwing, etc. are well distributed again. This means that you can no longer go back to the old compensation pattern.

6 months have passed since the first treatment and Christian Klimek has been able to play painlessly since then and has had a strong second half.
The Rheinpfalz Zeitung had published a big article about Christian and working with me after the comeback. Christian just said my treatments were AMAZING.

In the meantime, the owl players are giving me the handle. One after the other wanted and could now convince themselves of my new therapy method. There are now 10 players from Eulen Ludwigshafen.

What is absolutely certain about the new method … that you have to experience it yourself in order to be able to understand how quickly and clearly tensions, problems, pain and inefficient movement patterns change.

Years of shoulder and knee pain gone immediately

Video description

Thomas Steimel was formerly in the squad of the German national Alpine skiing team.

Thomas was and is an athlete through and through. His expertise not only includes downhill skiing, but also cross-country skiing and roller skiing in summer.
His injury history in the knee, shoulder and foot area is very long and extreme.
For the first time, Thomas treated me 2 years ago (2018) because of severe knee pain.

It was about pain that was so severe that normal walking was no longer possible. Climbing stairs was only possible step by step with readjustment.
Based on imaging diagnostics, the diagnosis was grade 4 osteoarthritis in the knee.
The next time you visit the clinic, the knee should be replaced with an artificial joint.

Then Thomas was with me for treatment…

Through the first treatment, Thomas had a full body change.
He only got 1 time !!! treated by MTME (Myofascial Taping according to Markus Erhard).

Many areas of his body were so balanced by the myofascial tension that his posture, gait and movements were extremely and immediately improved. He became pain free immediately.

This condition was also the case 2 years later when Thomas came to me again because of a shoulder pain from a fall. His knee got so good that he can even jog again!

Interview about training with Markus Erhard and about Myofascial Taping after Markus Erhard – MTME.

Painless and more pistol squats with MTME

Video description

Each participant in the training is also a patient / client and sees and feels how you can become pain-free in a very short time (minutes) and the movement suddenly becomes easier, goes much further (ROM), more strength is there and is more controlled.

MTME (Myofascial Taping according to Markus Erhard) was able to treat and change the pattern of a course participant to such an extent that pistol squads were not only pain-free on the left and right, but with ease and with a lot more repetitions (several runs with 5 repetitions in a row; before could only perform 1 – 2).

Interview: 6 months after herniated disc immediately painless

Video description

Interview with Judith Ammann, physiotherapist from St. Gallen.
She has already completed a large part of the MTME / Erhard therapy training and has been using MTME – Myofascial Taping according to Markus Erhard every day for several years.

At the end of 2018, Judith had a herniated disc.

In May 2019 she was back with me in training in Bühlertal. Despite various therapies, she still had severe pain and could only sit for a short time and then had to get up again and again.
On the second day of Level 3 of the training, we analyzed Judith using the MTME / Erhard therapy method to find out what her posture and movement pattern looked like.

In the end it was clear that it was 40 years of playing the violin. This pattern was very dominant, especially in the arms. This area was ultimately responsible for the fact that her pelvis was completely blocked on one side.

The taping of the arms after MTME meant that the blockage in the pelvis was immediately gone, the muscular tension in the back / pelvic area was immediately normal again, so the intervertebral discs were no longer compressed and they were immediately painless and flexible.

Hamstrings pain / injury

Video description

Interview with Svetlana, a participant of the Perform Better Fascia Summit (Faszien Summit) Munich 2015 after Myofascial Taping according to and from Markus Erhard. Pain at the hamstrings taped away with 2 little stripes of flexotape without taping the hamstrings themselves. Her hamstring pain came from inflammation at the hamstrings due to overuse and had lasted for 4 weeks before taping even though she tried many different massage techniques.
