Soft Tissue Manipulation
Soft tissue manipulation is a hands-on therapy aimed at alleviating pain, improving mobility, and enhancing overall function by targeting muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia. At Power Physio Clinic, we incorporate soft tissue manipulation into our physiotherapy protocols to provide comprehensive care and promote optimal recovery.
Soft tissue manipulation involves a variety of techniques used to manually treat the soft tissues of the body. This therapy focuses on relieving muscle tension, reducing pain, improving blood flow, and promoting healing. It is commonly used for conditions such as muscle strains, ligament sprains, tendonitis, and myofascial pain syndrome.
