Indulgence for body and mind
Manual physical therapy involves soft tissue mobilization, joint mobilization, joint manipulation, and nerve mobilization. It can help with a mechanical problem, say a stiff joint, but also has a neurophysiological component that many patients may require. It may seem that manual therapy is similar to other types of treatments, such as massage, chiropractic, or other osteopathic therapies. However, one key difference is in the assessment process behind the treatment and integration of manual therapy into the patient’s personalized exercise program.
This practice is based on careful examination of the patient’s movement patterns, including range of motion restrictions and compensatory movements that can prevent healing. Assessment is continuously done throughout treatment and techniques are altered to accommodate the patient’s response to the treatment provided.
At YYBC we employ a range of manual therapy techniques, including:
Joint mobilization
Passive range of motion
Flexibility
Soft tissue mobilization
Myofascial release
