Manual Physiotherapy

Overview of Manual Physiotherapy

manual physiotherapy

Manual physiotherapy is a hands-on approach that helps reduce pain, restore mobility, and support your body’s natural healing processes. At Advantage Chiropractic Henderson, our experienced physiotherapist uses a wide range of techniques to assess and treat muscle, joint, and nerve issues, all without the use of machines or medication.

​

Whether you're recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or just feeling restricted, manual therapy can help you move better and feel better.

What Is Manual Physiotherapy?

Manual physiotherapy involves skilled, hands-on techniques applied to soft tissues, joints, and nerves. These treatments help:

  • Decrease pain and stiffness

  • Improve joint range of motion

  • Release tight muscles and fascia

  • Mobilise restricted joints

  • Improve circulation and lymphatic flow

  • Support nervous system balance

Each session is tailored to your needs and may include joint mobilisations, soft tissue release, trigger point therapy, myofascial techniques, and stretching.

What Conditions Can Manual Therapy Help With?

Manual physiotherapy is used to treat a wide range of issues, including:

  • Neck and back pain

  • Joint stiffness (shoulders, hips, knees, ankles)

  • Sciatica and nerve pain

  • Muscle tension and trigger points

  • Headaches and jaw pain (TMJ)

  • Postural imbalances

  • Repetitive strain injuries

  • Sports and workplace injuries

  • Recovery after surgery

Who Can Benefit from Manual Physiotherapy?

Manual therapy is suitable for people of all ages and activity levels, including:

  • Adults with sedentary or active lifestyles

  • Children and teens with sports injuries or postural strain

  • Seniors needing gentle joint or muscle treatment

  • Athletes recovering from overuse or trauma

  • Office workers with neck or back tension

  • Tradies and manual labourers managing repetitive strain

Your therapist will adjust their technique and pressure to suit your body and preferences.
