Hands-On Physiotherapy

What is Hands-On Physiotherapy?

Hands-on physiotherapy, also known as Manual therapy, is a specialised approach where our physiotherapists use skilled, hands-on techniques to assess and treat musculoskeletal pain and movement issues. Each session is highly personalised, targeting the root cause of your discomfort rather than just the symptoms. By combining manual therapy with tailored exercises and movement strategies, we help you achieve faster recovery, improved mobility, and lasting results.

For Soft Tissue (Muscles, Ligaments, Tendons, and Fascia)

  • Soft Tissue Mobilization: Uses massage-like pressure to relax muscles, break up scar tissue, and improve circulation.

  • Myofascial Release: Gently releases tension in the fascia to restore flexibility and reduce tightness.

  • Trigger Point Therapy: Targets painful muscle knots to relieve tension and referred pain.

  • Strain-Counterstrain: Holds muscles in a pain-free position to reset tension and reduce spasms.

For Joints

  • Joint Mobilization: Gentle, rhythmic movements to restore motion and ease stiffness.

  • Joint Manipulation: A precise, quick thrust to improve joint movement (sometimes with a “pop”).

  • Muscle Energy Techniques (METs): Uses active muscle contractions to lengthen tight areas and improve mobility.

  • Traction: Applies gentle pulling to decompress joints, reducing pain and pressure.

Benefits of Hands-On Physiotherapy
