Manual therapy is a hands-on approach used in physiotherapy to treat pain and improve physical function

Through various techniques, such as joint mobilization, soft tissue manipulation, and stretching, a physiotherapist applies targeted pressure and movements to specific areas of the body. This therapy aims to alleviate pain, restore joint mobility, enhance circulation, and reduce muscle tension. By manipulating the body’s soft tissues and joints, manual therapy can improve flexibility, increase range of motion, and promote healing. It also helps to break down scar tissue, release muscle spasms, and improve overall body alignment. Manual therapy is often combined with exercise and other treatment modalities to provide comprehensive pain relief and enhance the body’s natural healing process.
