Manual therapy (MT) is a specialised physiotherapeutic treatment method used to examine and treat functional disorders of the musculoskeletal system. Through targeted manual techniques, joints are mobilised, muscles are relaxed, and the interaction between nerves, muscles, and joints is improved.

Manual therapy is particularly suitable for:
acute and chronic back pain and musculoskeletal complaints
poor posture and strain
(painful) restricted movement in joints such as the knee, hip, or shoulder
muscular tension
The treatment aims to:
releasing movement restrictions and improving joint mobility
targeting pain reduction
balancing muscular imbalances
correcting improper loading
This approach can help relieve symptoms and may also address underlying movement restrictions contributing to your discomfort.
