How will manual therapy help me find relief?
An integral part of a holistic physical therapy care plan is manual therapy. It can help release chronic pain patterns, address muscle imbalances, reduce swelling, minimize inflammation, and increase range of motion.
Manual therapy, defined.
At Wellspring Health Center, our physical therapists are extensively trained in specialized hi-tech and hands-on manual therapy techniques. Using a personalized, holistic method, manual therapy treats the root cause of pain. Manual therapy mobilizes and releases stiff joints, muscles and soft tissues to restore function and healing.
We utilize a wide range of techniques and advanced tools to mobilize your tendons, ligaments, and joints to relieve pain and stimulate healing. These techniques are also effective in reducing scar tissue and minimizing swelling. This specialized form of hands-on treatment can also reduce restrictions, mobilize joints and increase your range of motion.
What do manual therapy treatments look like?
Manual therapy techniques may include, but are not limited to:
Mobilization
Chronic pain in the back, neck or limbs is often caused by a restricted joint. Our physical therapists are experts in mobilizing painful joints. Mobilization techniques are effective, safe and painless, and can restore your range of motion and enhance the mobility of your restricted joint.
At Wellspring Health Center, we also provide clinically-proven computerized technology that quickly and accurately analyzes and delivers an assortment of stimuli at varying speeds to treat restricted joints and soft tissues for the most gentle and precise manual therapy in Eden Prairie, MN, and the Twin Cities Metro area.
Manual traction
Our physical therapists perform manual traction to gently stretch the soft tissues of a specific area of the body to reduce pressure on nerves and release tension in the muscles.
Neck pain is one of the most common symptoms treated with manual traction, but can relieve tension in other parts of the body, including the arms, legs and back.
