The term manual therapy describes a musculoskeletal treatment performed exclusively with manual techniques. These techniques can be mobilisations, or manipulations/ adjustments, stretches either of the joints or any soft tissue structure (muscle, ligament, joint, nerve).
The term manual therapy describes a musculoskeletal treatment performed exclusively with manual techniques. These techniques can be mobilisations, or manipulations/ adjustments, stretches either of the joints or any soft tissue structure (muscle, ligament, joint, nerve).
The mobilisation tehniques either soft tissue or joint related, are thought to be more gentle to the body and they need to have a certain duration to be effective. The manipulations or adjustments are much faster techniques which are mostly focusing on the joints. Usually there is an audible pop which is linked to a successful execution of the technique.
The role of mobilisations and manipulations is to make the joints move better, reduce localised stiffness, inflammation and increase the range of motion. They can both give a dramatic improvement to someone’s symptoms and in the hands of someone trained they can be very effective. In Physiomove we are passionate about manual therapy and we often combine it with acupuncture and tailor-made exercises to give a superior treatment result compared to other clinics.
