title: [Molecular physical medicine].
abstract: A multimodal treatment of inflammatory rheumatic diseases without physical medicine is almost always incomplete. The mechanisms underlying the positive effects of physical medicine are only partially understood. Modern molecular medicine offers new insights into pivotal mechanisms and mediators of the inflammatory process and into interactions between cells of the immune system and the bone. Investigating the potential influences of different methods of physical medicine on the central regulatory processes of inflammatory rheumatic diseases is of great interest, highly fascinating and opens up new avenues of research for the future. This article focuses on the first novel results of molecular physical medicine in rheumatic and degenerative diseases.
