Manual therapy includes soft tissue, vertebral/peripheral joint and nervous system mobilization techniques that aim to improve range of motion, decrease scar tissue and alleviate pain. These techniques include soft tissue massage therapy, joint mobilizations and manipulations, nerve gliding and any other hands-on treatment style. Each physiotherapist is uniquely trained to assess and treat all types of injuries using these very effective hands-on therapeutic interventions. At Burlington Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Centre, manual therapy is a key component of every interaction with our clients.
