When stiffness or discomfort gets in the way, a hands-on approach may be part of your physical therapy plan.
A plan built around your movement.
Manual therapy describes skilled techniques used by a physical therapist to work with joints and soft tissues. It is one part of a broader approach that may also include exercise and education.
Joint and soft-tissue mobility
Movement limitations following injury
An individual approach to comfort
Care combined with therapeutic exercise
An assessment comes first
Your therapist looks at your movement and discusses your symptoms and goals before deciding whether manual techniques are appropriate.
A collaborative treatment
We explain what we are doing and check in with you throughout treatment. Your comfort and feedback help guide the session.
Connect treatment to movement
Hands-on work is paired with an appropriate movement plan so the session relates to the activities you want to return to.
