What is Manual Therapy?
Manual therapy includes types of therapy that utilize hands-on treatments for optimal results. This can be helpful to treat sports injuries and encourage quick recovery times before returning to normal activities. Common types of manual therapy include:
Myofascial Release Therapy: This type of manual therapy is performed by a physical therapist gently kneading the muscles. This helps to increase blood circulation and drainage, reducing swelling and relieving pain. This also helps to loosen connective tissues that can tighten and put pressure on muscles and nerves, causing chronic pain.
Trigger Point Myotherapy: This type of manual therapy is aimed towards nerve entrapment, ischemia, trigger points, and muscular imbalances. Hands-on treatment is used to relax the muscles and improve blood and oxygen flow.
Acupressure Therapy: This type of manual therapy has been used in ancient healing for over 2000 years. This type of therapy is similar to acupuncture but uses pressure from hands-on techniques rather than needles. This is done by physical therapists putting pressure on specific areas of the body to release tension and relieve pain.
