Manual therapy

Manual therapy is a special form of physiotherapy that focuses on the treatment of disorders in the musculoskeletal system. Joints, muscles and soft tissues are treated with special hand movements to release blockages and improve mobility. Manual therapy is performed by a specialized therapist or physician.

At the beginning of the treatment, the therapist performs a thorough examination to determine the exact cause of the complaints. Then the therapy is individually tailored to the patient's needs. The therapist uses various techniques, such as mobilizations, stretches or manipulations. Targeted pressure or traction is used to release blockages and improve joint function. Manual therapy can also relieve pain and increase mobility.

The positive effect of manual therapy lies primarily in the fact that it is a quick and effective method of improving mobility and relieving pain in the musculoskeletal system. Particularly in the case of acute complaints such as tension or injuries, manual therapy can provide rapid relief. Manual therapy can also be an effective treatment option for chronic conditions such as osteoarthritis or spinal disorders to relieve pain and improve mobility. Manual therapy can also be used preventively to maintain mobility and prevent injuries.
