About Good Joints

“We help patients become more active and mobile without painkillers to live a pain-free existence and avoid visiting a doctor”

At Good Joints, we love helping people in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond get back to a life they deserve. A life free from painkillers, where you don't have to worry about bothering your doctor and can do and enjoy all the things you love without the fear of pain holding you back.

When something like chronic pain occurs in the knee, lower back, neck, or shoulders, or when you experience an injury while exercising or working out, it's very tempting to simply ignore it and hope it goes away by itself, with time and rest...

That you wake up one day and how “magical” it will be as if it never happened — but that is usually not the case, and often the pain ends worse than at the beginning. We also know how easy it is to reach into the back of the closet and take painkillers whenever the pain strikes so that it subsides quickly — but all of those painkillers aren't good for your health in the long term and do nothing but mask the pain.

Or maybe you're confused, maybe even skeptical, because you've already sought advice from other health professionals or a physical therapist in the past and nothing they've said or done has helped.

Does it sound familiar to you?

If that applies to you, you're not alone. At the Good Joints practice, we hear that all the time... In fact, people who come to us have often experienced the following:

Unhappy Emoticon

The feeling that the pain would go away on its own, but it didn't

Unhappy Emoticon

Several visits to the doctor just to hear that you should “rest” and “take painkillers” - then go back to the doctor weeks later, only to be prescribed even more rest and an even stronger dose of pain reliever

Unhappy Emoticon

Be on a months-long waiting list after being referred for treatment with a physical therapist and then, after waiting so long, receive a list of exercises that did not relieve pain quickly or at all

Unhappy Emoticon

Tried some exercises on YouTube, but either these exercises had no effect at all or made the pain ten times worse

Unhappy Emoticon

Thought it would be a good idea to rest because the pain was so bad, but that only caused the affected area to get even stiffer and tighter

Unhappy Emoticon

Heard from a family member or friend that “everyone gets aches and pains in old age,” making it easy to accept it as “a part of life.”

Do you know that too?

If any of these situations have happened to you, we'd love to help you by inviting you to schedule a call to talk to one of our physiotherapists at our practice in Bonn and find out what can help you. The fact is that you've already tried some or all of these things, like many people we see, and that's actually GOOD because when you know what doesn't work, you're closer to finding what works!

Click on the link below to schedule a call with us if you would like to receive in-depth advice over the phone. The telephone call is free of charge and there is no obligation to make appointments with us after the interview. Our goal is to help you make the right decision about what's best for you next.

Founded by Ivan Golovko

Physiotherapist, practice owner and author Praxis Gute Gelänge was founded by Ivan Golovko - an author of the book “Myth Back Pain” Through many years of experience, a master's degree in osteopathy and exchange with colleagues from all health disciplines, he has noticed that something is wrong with the healthcare system. Pain problems are treated symptomatically, medically and surgically and without lasting success. He wants to change this with his work.

Ivan has been helping people just like you who want to stay active and be healthy so they can get the most out of life for years to come! We are convinced that people aged 40 and over should have exceptionally better access to excellent care in order to remain active, mobile and free from painkillers.

If you want to know how Gute Joints Physiotherapy can help you live with less pain and feel great again, we invite you to start with a completely free, non-binding and risk-free appointment at one of our clinics

Note: We offer this free trial lesson to people who are very nervous or skeptical about physical therapy — unsure whether it is right for them or what benefits it has. If this applies to you, please start with a free trial lesson so that we can work with you to find out what is wrong and what can be done — without any financial risk on your part.
