Manual Therapy
What Type of Training is Required?
Physical therapists are all trained to utilize manual therapy. However, at Mansfield Physical Therapy, our priority is to have you walking out the door feeling better than when you walked in. With this goal in mind, our therapists have spent extensive time practicing, training, and receiving post-degree training. Each therapist at Mansfield PT has training and experience to utilize manual therapy and maximize your results.
What are the Benefits of Manual Therapy?
Depending on the goal, manual therapy can achieve many different outcomes. For stiff joints, manual therapy can help improve range of motion, improve flexibility, and improve functional range. For the inflamed joints, manual therapy can help reduce inflammation and pain by reducing muscle tension. Manual therapy can also be utilized to train the body and joints to move correctly and in a way that is less painful and more functional.
