Manual Therapy

Manual Therapy is the treatment of the soft tissues and joints in the body. The source of pain for many people is often of myofascial origin. This means the pain comes from the muscles and connective tissues which are causing restriction. A lack of blood flow causes a reduction in moving and gliding of these tissues. Once there is a restriction in one area, it can affect other areas of the body and create pain. Manual therapy works to release these restrictions and restore proper movement in the body.
