Manual Therapy
Manual therapy is the art and science of one-on-one, hands-on interaction between a healthcare practitioner and a patient.
You may be one of many people who would benefit from including manual therapy in your integrated treatment program. The hands-on treatment of muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints can restore normal movement and function to joints and soft tissues. Manual therapy, particularly when combined with exercise and other therapies, can help regulate pain and reduce or eliminate inflammation.
Manual therapy can include:
- Craniosacral therapy
- Joint mobilization
- Manual traction
- Muscle energy techniques
- Myofascial release
- Soft tissue mobilization
- Stretching
- Trigger point releases
