Manual Therapy

Decrease Pain - Reduce soft tissue swelling - Improve range of motion

Restore Movement and Maximize Function.

Orthopaedic Manual Physical Therapy is a specialized area of physiotherapy for the management of neuro-musculoskeletal conditions, based on clinical reasoning, using highly specific treatment approaches including manual techniques and therapeutic exercises.

Manual therapy involves the physiotherapist’s skilled use of their hands on a person’s joints and soft tissues. They are intended to improve tissue extensibility; increase range of motion; induce relaxation; decrease pain; facilitate normal activation, flexibility and tone of muscle; improve nerve mobility, and reduce soft tissue swelling, inflammation, or restriction.

Our physiotherapists select and implement manual therapy techniques when the examination findings indicate use of these techniques.
