Manual therapy is a specialised, hands-on physiotherapy technique used to treat musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. Unlike machine-based treatments, manual therapy relies on the skilled hands of a trained physiotherapist to mobilise joints, release tight muscles, and restore natural movement patterns.
At Rebalance Physiotherapy Clinic in Whitefield, Bangalore, our physiotherapist Dr. Vaishnavi Tammewar uses evidence-based manual therapy techniques tailored to each patient's condition — whether it's a stiff neck from long hours at a desk, a frozen shoulder, or post-surgical joint restriction.
Manual therapy encompasses a range of hands-on techniques including joint mobilisation, joint manipulation, soft tissue mobilisation, myofascial release, and muscle energy techniques. The therapist uses precise hand movements to apply pressure, stretch tissues, and move joints through their natural range of motion.
These techniques work by reducing pain signals, breaking down adhesions, improving blood flow to the affected area, and restoring normal joint mechanics. Manual therapy is often combined with therapeutic exercises for the best outcomes.
Your first visit begins with a detailed assessment — we evaluate your posture, range of motion, muscle strength, and pain points. Based on the findings, a personalised treatment plan is created.
During a manual therapy session, you'll lie comfortably while the therapist applies specific techniques to the affected area. Sessions typically last 30–45 minutes. Most patients notice improvement within 3–4 sessions, though the total number depends on the condition's severity. We also prescribe home exercises to maintain progress between sessions.
