Manual Theraphy


What Is Manual Therapy?

Also known as hands-on physical therapy, manual therapy uses no devices or machines. Instead, therapists use only their hands while performing skilled, specific hands-on techniques. In general, manual therapy includes soft tissue work and mobilization/manipulation.

When performing soft tissue work, therapists apply pressure to the soft tissues of the body, such as the muscles. This pressure can help relax muscles, increase circulation, break up scar tissue, and reduce or eliminate soft tissue inflammation.
