Manual physical therapy, often referred to as hands-on therapy, involves skilled techniques by your physical therapist to address a range of issues. This approach includes muscle manipulation, joint manipulation, muscle kneading, and joint mobilization. The ultimate goal is to enhance your range of motion, alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and facilitate efficient healing after an injury or symptom flare. At HELIX Performance Physical Therapy, our expert therapists tailor a manual therapy plan specifically for you and your unique challenges.
Types of Manual Therapy
- Joint Mobilization: This technique focuses on loosening the joint, leading to the resolution of pain and movement issues.
- Soft Tissue Mobilization: Techniques such as the Graston Technique are employed to break down adhesions, or fibrous tissue causing pain and restricting movement. Breaking these down offers relief for post-surgical problems, sports injuries, and chronic pain.
- Strain Counterstrain Technique: Particularly beneficial for back problems and other pain-causing conditions, this technique involves controlled movements to return a restricted joint to its normal range of motion. Strain counterstrain is a powerful and painless method for recovery after an injury or illness.
- Muscle Energy Techniques: These techniques involve controlled resistance exercises guided by your physical therapist, and help lengthen damaged muscles while establishing new motion barriers for your joints, without causing pain.
Manual therapy emerges as a powerful healing tool for sudden injuries, chronic pain, and post-surgical issues. By understanding the origin and extent of your condition, your therapist can tailor a treatment plan that focuses on improving muscle, bone, and blood supply. Beyond relieving joint and muscle restrictions, manual therapy reduces pain and enhances blood flow, providing immediate and long-term benefits.
