Microkine
Microkine is a complementary manual therapy consisting of gentle and precise movements. Through these micro-palpations, the therapist identifies restricted areas and determines the origins of symptoms. Using gentle, painless stimuli, they trigger the body's self-repair mechanisms. Patients can turn to microkine to improve their health and well-being, as well as for preventive care, whether or not they have a medical condition.
As a result, microkine is suitable for everyone, at any age.
Here are its indications: sources

Microkine in the Workplace
Beyond its proven results in improving employee well-being (physical and psychological balance), microkine is an effective care tool for treating musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs – Table 57 of occupational diseases in the French Social Security Code), stress management, and maintaining senior employees in the workforce.
Since the early 2000s, many caring employers concerned with quality of life at work have taken the initiative to offer their employees regular microkine sessions.
Thus, microkinesitherapists intervene directly in the professional environment, adhering to the ethical standards of their profession, particularly medical confidentiality. These sessions take place during working hours.
Microkine for Athletes
Evaluations tend to show its effectiveness in sports for reducing injuries, shortening post-traumatic recovery time, and decreasing the number of days absent from matches.
Microkine is a valuable ally in sports, where the mental aspect makes the difference in performance.
Microkine have been working with professional teams and high-level athletes for several years, but the technique is not reserved for champions—it is suitable for any athlete who wants to enjoy their sport while taking care of their body.
