A manual therapist specializes in examining and treating complaints of the musculoskeletal system, such as joints, muscles, and nerves. Using expert techniques, the manual therapist helps reduce pain, improve mobility, and restore balance in the body.
Manual therapy is suitable for people with complaints such as pain in the back, neck, shoulders, hips, or knees. A manual therapist can also help with headaches or dizziness, especially when these symptoms are caused by tension or movement restrictions in the neck or spine.
During the assessment, the manual therapist evaluates your posture, movements, and joints to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms. Based on this assessment, a treatment plan is created, which may include mobilizations, exercise therapy, advice on posture and movement, and guidance to restore normal movement patterns.
The goal of manual therapy is to reduce pain, restore function, and prevent complaints in the future. This way, the manual therapist helps you move freely again, without limitations.
