Manual therapy

Manual therapy is a modern physiotherapy methodology used to manage musculoskeletal problems. The physiotherapist mainly uses his or her hands for examination and treatment combined with physiotherapy devices. This way the physiotherapist is allowed to identify the movement that will alleviate pain or increase mobility. 

During manual therapy, the following are examined and evaluated: the movement of the joints of the spine and body in detail, the behavior of the nervous tissue in various pathologies such as nerve inflammation (sciatica), the strength and elasticity of the muscles, etc. Through the sessions, the range of motion, proprioception of the affected joint, restoration of neuromuscular function, reduction of pain and other functional symptoms, etc. is improved.

Manual therapy is ideal for all patients, regardless of gender or age. This therapy provides a wide range of options in techniques and manipulations to provide a personalized approach to patients of all ages. Through systematic clinical consultation the patient will be guided to the solution of the problem but at the same time will be able to reintegrate into their daily life without pain and limitation of activities.
