About Manual Therapy
Manual Therapy uses hands-on techniques to address muscles, fascia, joints, and soft tissue. At Club Five Health, manual therapy is customized to your needs and can be used to support pain relief, mobility, rehabilitation, recovery, and performance.
Manual Therapy is hands-on care, not the same as massage. While both use hands-on techniques, manual therapy is typically performed as part of a clinical treatment plan focused on movement, function, pain, and rehabilitation. Providers may use a combination of techniques based on your condition and goals, including myofascial release, IASTM, cupping, pin and stretch, flexion-distraction, chiropractic techniques, percussion therapy, and soft-tissue mobilization. Rather than using the same technique for everyone, we select the approaches that best fit your body and treatment goals.
Your provider evaluates your movement and the areas you are experiencing difficulty with before selecting the appropriate techniques. Treatment may involve pressure, stretching, joint movement, or soft-tissue work. Some techniques may create mild temporary discomfort, but treatment should remain tolerable. Treatment time varies depending on the technique and your treatment plan. Manual therapy is often most effective when combined with active rehabilitation and other Club Five therapies.
Hands-on techniques can be used when muscle tightness or muscle and joint discomfort is part of the plan.
Treatment is selected to support movement and function when mobility is limited.
Manual therapy may be incorporated into programs for sports injuries, athletic performance, and exercise recovery.
It often sits beside active rehabilitation so the plan addresses both how you feel and how you move.
Manual Therapy may be incorporated into programs for muscle tightness, joint and muscle discomfort, limited mobility, sports injuries, exercise recovery, postural and movement issues, rehabilitation, and athletic performance.
