THE 4xT® METHOD
What is the 4xT®Method?
4xT® Method explained for patients
Chronic pain such as back, neck, or joint pain and fibromyalgia can significantly limit daily functioning.
Traditional treatments like medication or rest often only offer temporary relief, without addressing the underlying cause.
The innovative 4xT® Method offers an effective solution by focusing on the body’s recovery without pills, injections, or surgery.
This method consists of four steps—Testing, Triggering, Taping, and Training—and focuses on the connective tissue (fascia), which plays a central role in the functioning of muscles and joints.
By identifying blockages and treating them in a targeted manner, the 4xT® Method promotes lasting recovery and pain reduction.
What is the 4xT®Methode?
4xT® Method explained for professionals
The 4xT® Method is a modern, scientifically proven treatment method that focuses on quickly and naturally reducing (chronic) pain, with the goal of lasting recovery. It requires no medication, injections, or surgery. The method consists of four fixed steps that are always applied in the same order:
- Test Using the unique DAMT® tests, the cause of the pain is accurately determined, how it manifests itself in your movements, and which structures are involved. This forms the basis for a targeted and effective treatment.
- Trigger Through specific fascia techniques (connective tissue manipulation), tension and blockages in the connective tissue surrounding muscles, joints, and organs are treated. This often leads to immediate pain reduction and increased range of motion.
- Tape With EasyTape®, proper movement is stimulated and supported. This helps the body maintain its restored movement pattern and promotes the healing process.
- Train Finally, targeted exercises are used to strengthen and maintain the body’s flexibility. This prevents recurrence of complaints and ensures lasting results.

How does the 4xT® Method help with pain management?
The 4xT® Method offers an innovative and effective approach to treating chronic pain conditions such as back pain, neck pain, and limited mobility. Unlike traditional therapies, which often focus on symptom management, 4xT® treats the body as a whole—with special attention to muscles, joints, and connective tissue (fascia).
Scientific Support
Case studies and publications show that patients often experience significant pain relief after just one treatment. In a study conducted by the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, the range of motion of a patient with chronic low back pain improved immediately after the first session: the pain score when bending forward decreased from 8 to 0. The results were maintained after six weeks: less pain and more mobility. (https://research.vu.nl/en/publications/unlocking-pain-relief-for-chronic-low-back-pain-the-potential-of- )
