What Is Manual Therapy?
​
​
​
​
​
​
Manual therapy (MT) is the core focus of our treatment. MT is an advanced area within physiotherapy based on manual examination and specialised treatment techniques integrated with exercise, education and other modalities to address pain, loss of function and wellness.
It has been used for a long time within the profession of physiotherapy and physiotherapists have greatly contributed to the diversity in manual therapy techniques.
The International Federation of Orthopaedic Physiotherapists (IFOMPT) defines orthopaedic manual physiotherapy as: "a specialised area of physiotherapy for the management of NMS conditions, based on clinical reasoning, using highly specific treatment approaches including manual techniques and exercise therapy.
Orthopaedic Manual Therapy also encompasses and is driven by, the available scientific and clinical evidence and the biopsychosocial framework of each patient.
Manual therapy is a large umbrella that includes many specific hands-on techniques. Here’s a list of the most common ones we use:
-
Traction
-
Soft tissue work
-
Passive and active range of motion techniques
-
Joint mobilisations and translations

Trigger point therapy
-
Active release techniques
-

-
Stretching
-
Neuromuscular release

Benefits Of Manual Therapy

-
Pain Reduction: Manual therapy techniques, including joint mobilisations and soft tissue mobilisations, are effective in alleviating musculoskeletal pain including headaches by targeting specific areas of discomfort.

Enhanced Healing: Manual therapy techniques promote tissue healing and optimal recovery, aiding in the rehabilitation process.

A Tailored Treatment Plan For Every Patient

To be able to assess your problems with our hands alone, without the assistance of imaging (soft tissue and joint restrictions are not typically visible in most imaging) takes a special ability to feel these differences in tissue consistency.
This is both a gift and a combined motor and sensory skill that takes time and patience to master. Our patients come to us for a variety of reasons, and we take great pride in delivering the highest level of service in all circumstances.
For example, some people are looking to recover from an injury to return to work. We also care for people who are simply looking to develop a more active lifestyle.
Our team will put together a physiotherapy plan that focuses on achievable goals, helping you develop a fitness routine that is sustainable in the long term.
We can apply this to athletes and sporting teams at all levels, from ‘weekend warriors’ to elite performers, ensuring you are in peak physical condition for your next challenge.
