Manual therapy can assist you in dealing with chronic pain!
Do you want a highly effective way to relieve pain or improve your range of motion? Manual therapy could be a fantastic solution to your issues!
Manual therapy is used by physical therapists to relieve pain, restore range of motion, and aid in the restoration of mobility. To achieve the desired result, a physical therapist uses skilled hand movements to move joints and soft tissue passively.
Our therapists at Sterling Physical Therapy & Wellness in Sugar Land, Bellaire & Stafford, TX are highly skilled at identifying the source of your problems and providing safe, highly effective treatments to help you find relief and get back to doing what you love!
Is manual therapy painful?
That is, unfortunately, a trick question. Touching injured areas of the body is not always comfortable, and even the lightest touch can aggravate pain. However, the pain-relieving benefits of manual therapy are well established and, when performed by our skilled physical therapists, are especially beneficial!
Manual therapy aims to relieve pain, and many people experience immediate relief!
To mobilize stiff joints and tight or tense soft tissues, physical therapists use safe, highly effective manual therapy techniques. Manual techniques can be used to effectively treat joint swelling, tissue edema, joint restrictions, and soft tissue tension and restrictions/adhesions.
Our highly trained therapists will explain exactly what to expect from our manual therapy techniques. Knowing what to expect is an effective way to manage increases in symptoms and reduces people’s fear of their condition worsening.
Some people experience soreness after a manual therapy session, but this is only temporary and should last no longer than 24-48 hours. As your therapist works with you, they will be able to adjust the pressure and techniques to reduce soreness and ensure overall pain relief.
A single manual therapy session is often enough to provide immediate pain relief and joint or soft tissue mobility improvements. Remember that the goal is never to cause more pain, so keeping in touch with your therapist is critical.
Our physical therapists are medical professionals who understand the functioning of the human body. After your first appointment with our physical therapist, you’ll feel better and more optimistic about the future of your treatment.
In fact, many patients report seeing results after only one session.
