About
DR. KLAUS WACHTER
​
Personal Background
Austria
​
As a Medical Doctor (not licensed in the US)* with over 30 years of experience in Functional Medicine, Fascia Therapy, Manual Medicine, Orthomolecular Medicine, Sports Rehabilitation, and Neuromodulation, I take a holistic approach to improving health, optimizing function, and restoring mobility. My goal is to relieve pain, enhance function, and support overall well-being through evidence-based, integrative techniques.
​
I continue to run two private medical clinics in Vienna, providing specialized, holistic, and integrative care based on the therapies mentioned above. My practice in Austria focuses on patient-centered therapies, addressing both acute and chronic conditions with advanced medical techniques.
​​​​​
​Hawaii
​
After moving to Hawaii, I have embraced a new professional chapter, focusing on hands-on therapy within the state's regulatory framework. Currently, I am pursuing massage therapy licensure through the MyoPro Institute, integrating the "MyoPro Principle" with my expertise in Advanced Fascia Therapy to offer a highly specialized, science-based therapeutic approach.
​
With a lifelong passion for movement, health, and holistic well-being, I am committed to applying my expertise in hands-on therapy while adhering to state regulations.
​
Professional Background
As a General Practitioner (MD)* with a foundation in Functional Medicine, I have dedicated my career to advancing innovative therapeutic approaches that support the body's natural healing processes.
My specialized therapeutic approach targets fascia as a dynamic organ system, integrating structural restoration, sensory optimization, and metabolic support. By addressing pain and dysfunction at their root, I decode fascial pain patterns, enhance neuromuscular communication, and promote physiological balance for precise and effective treatment​. ​​​​
How Patients May Benefit from My Expertise
As I have already mentioned and would like to emphasize once again, I am a Medical Doctor (not licensed in the US)*
My extensive experience in fascia therapy, manual therapy, neuromodulation, sports medicine, and orthomolecular medicine allows me to offer a highly specialized and integrative treatment approach.
This is the foundation of my 'Neuro Fascia Balance' TM method. My deep expertise across multiple disciplines and approaches gives me a comprehensive perspective in my therapeutic work here in Hawaii, allowing me to combine structural bodywork with advanced techniques to optimize function and well-being for my patients.
​
All treatments are provided in full compliance with state regulations and strictly within the scope of hands-on therapy.
By utilizing advanced manual techniques and evidence-based methods, I focus on improving movement, reducing discomfort, and supporting the body's natural recovery processes. Each treatment is fully customized to the individual, ensuring a holistic and personalized approach to overall well-being.
My 'Neuro Fascia Balance' TM method is a unique combination of expertise, scientific knowledge, and hands-on therapy, offering patients a comprehensive approach that may go beyond symptom management—potentially promoting long-term improvement, functional restoration, and enhanced quality of life.

Specialized Therapeutic Approaches in Austria
​
In Austria, my specialized therapeutic approaches focus on integrative and evidence-based treatments for both acute and chronic conditions, focusing on restoring function, improving mobility, and optimizing overall well-being. These include:
Fascial Distortion Model (FDM)
FDM identifies reversible distortions in connective tissue as the cause of pain and dysfunction. Through specific manual techniques, these distortions can be corrected, leading to immediate pain relief and functional improvement. FDM is effective for both sports-related and everyday musculoskeletal issues.
Manual Medicine
A hands-on approach to treating acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions, including sprains, strains, contusions, and spinal pain. Precise structural adjustments
help restore alignment, relieve pain, and enhance mobility.
Sports Medicine
Focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of sports injuries, as well as performance optimization and rehabilitation. Treatments are tailored to the specific needs of athletes for faster recovery and enhanced endurance.
Orthomolecular Medicine
Uses micronutrients, vitamins, minerals, and bioactive substances to support cellular function, balance the immune system, and enhance metabolic health. Includes bioidentical hormone therapy for regulation and prevention.
Neuromodulation
A non-invasive approach that stimulates the nervous system through electrical or magnetic impulses, applied to the scalp or vagus nerve. Effective for chronic pain, neurological dysfunction, and stress-related conditions.
Regulation & Preventive Medicine
Activates cell metabolism, stabilizes physiological balance, and promotes regenerative processes through targeted micronutrient therapy and lifestyle modifications.
Psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) & Bioneuroimmunology
Explores interactions between the nervous, immune, and endocrine systems. Neuromodulation techniques, such as vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), help regulate inflammation, support gut health, and improve sleep, stress resilience, and cognitive function.
