The court revoked the warning after ruling the country's Medical Responsibility Board didn't prove its claims that the doctor's "anal massage" technique contradicted "scientific, tried and tested experience," The Local reported Thursday.

The physician was warned by the board on at least three occasions after using his method to treat an elderly woman's headaches and back pain. The woman described his treatment as "an incredibly offensive encroachment."

The board reviewed literature the doctor used to support his use of the anal massage method, but found his methods to be "dubious for a number of reasons," the Swedish newspaper said, including an observation that it was impossible to reach any of the affected muscles using the technique.
