Manual therapy is a fundamental core component of your path to wellness. It consists of skilled hand movements used to treat the joints, muscles and soft tissue throughout the body.
Your appointment begins with a thorough, initial assessment of your injury or concern, followed by an evidence-based treatment plan specific to your needs.
Manual therapy treatment techniques can include specific joint mobilizations (skilled passive techniques utilized to improve motion and alignment of the joint), soft tissue techniques (various techniques to alter the tension in both the muscle and connective tissue), and manipulation (a high-speed but low amplitude mobilization of a joint). Specific exercises are almost always used as an adjunct to manual therapy to maintain the treatment progress.
Our leading-edge team of Physiotherapists is expected to go beyond the basic Physiotherapy skills and work towards becoming Fellows of the Canadian Orthopaedic Manipulative Physiotherapists Association (FCAMPT). To achieve this designation they must have excellent manual skills and a thorough knowledge of assessment and treatment approaches for patients with orthopaedic problems.

Manual therapy encompasses a variety of techniques tailored to address specific needs. Joint mobilizations involve gentle, precise movements to improve joint function and reduce pain. Soft tissue techniques focus on manipulating muscles and connective tissues to relieve tension and enhance healing. Manipulation is a more targeted approach, applying quick, accurate movements to a joint to immediately improve mobility and decrease discomfort. These methods are selected based on a thorough assessment of your condition to ensure the most effective and personalized treatment.
How Long Does Manual Therapy Last?
The duration of a manual therapy session at Treloar Physiotherapy Clinic can vary, typically ranging from 30 to 60 minutes. The exact length of your session will depend on your specific condition, the treatment techniques being used, and your individual response to therapy.
How Often Should I Receive Manual Therapy?
The frequency of manual therapy sessions varies depending on the individual’s condition, the severity of their symptoms, and their response to treatment. After your initial assessment, your physiotherapist will recommend a treatment plan tailored to your needs, which may include a series of manual therapy sessions. Some clients may see improvements after just a few sessions, while others with more complex or chronic conditions may benefit from a longer course of treatment.
