Manual Therapy
What specific benefits can manual therapy offer in terms of treating your condition and improving your overall well-being?
Manual therapy is a hands-on treatment used by clinicians to address muscle aches, joint pain, and limited range of motion.
Techniques in manual therapy include soft tissue mobilization, joint mobilization, and joint manipulation.
The three notable forms of manual therapy are manipulation (rapid force applied to joints), mobilization (controlled stretching for joint mobility), and massage (repetitive rubbing or kneading of muscles).
Manual therapy is effective for conditions such as adhesive capsulitis, shoulder impingement, tennis elbow, pinched nerves, and postsurgical stiffness.
It is often incorporated into a customized treatment plan based on individual needs.
