Career
Kiesling passed her A- levels at the Goethe-Gymnasium in Düsseldorf in 1968 . She then studied physiotherapy until 1972 at the University Clinic in Düsseldorf and at the Urbank Hospital in Berlin . From 1973 to 2013 she successfully ran the Gabriele Kiesling physiotherapy practice in Düsseldorf. In 1980 she was a founding member and later chairwoman of the board of the Federal Association of Independent Physiotherapists (IFK) in Düsseldorf. At the IFK, from 2002 to 2004, together with Frank Dudda and Alfons Roerkohl, she developed the basics of the IQH (Institute for Quality in the Supply of Medicinal Products). In 2007 she founded the diqp, initially in Düsseldorf, later in Berlin for quality assurance of physiotherapy methods and in physiotherapy practices.
Kiesling has been empirically involved in myofascial treatment methods and their modes of action since 1973. The method she founded was renamed from 2016 with Robert Schleip and the Fascia Research Group of the University of Ulm for fascia physiotherapy. The foundations for this are based on physiotherapeutic neuro-orthopedics as well as the research work of Carla Stecco, JC Guimberteau Helene Langevin and Robert Schleip. The 5th international fascia research congress in Berlin in November 2018 confirmed the principle of fascia physiotherapy and the Kiesling concept. On this subject, the book Physiotherapy for Home with 90 exercises from fascia physiotherapy was published by Riva-Verlag.
