Igor Hečko

Hello,

I am Igor Hečko, an experienced physiotherapist and certified DNS (Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization) trainer with over 30 years of professional practice in the fields of movement, therapy, and sport.

My career began in competitive sports as an active football player. I then worked as a massage therapist before completing my education as a physiotherapist. This combination of sport experience and clinical education has shaped my practical and holistic approach to human movement.

Since 2013, I have been running my own practice in Austria, focusing strongly on the DNS method, in which I have more than 10 years of specialized experience. 
My work integrates precise functional diagnostics with natural movement patterns to restore stability, coordination, and pain-free movement.

Over the years, I have worked with several professional teams and athletes, including:

• Austrian U19 national handball team (physiotherapy, 2019–2022)
• Inter Bratislava football team (massage therapist, 1996–2004)
• Slovak U19 national football team (massage therapist, 2005)
• Inter Bratislava basketball team (massage therapist, 2008)
  
  

My approach is suitable for anyone who wants to improve movement quality, prevent injuries, and stay active without pain in the long term.

My coaching style is based on patience, discipline, and a clear focus on achieving individual goals.

I am always here to support you on your way to better movement and health.
