Manual therapy, such as joint mobilisations, trigger point pressure release and soft tissue techniques can be used to facilitate increased movement and improved function.
This treatment will include a physiotherapist using their hands to apply pressure and movement to joint’s and soft tissue. This is different to a massage as the intention of the treatment is not relaxation but to target specific problem areas – improving movement and function.
This treatment may be prescribed to treat your condition, as well as exercises to complete at home.
