Manual therapy is a hands-on approach used in treatment to address muscle and soft tissue pain, joint stiffness, and posture and to assist in efficient movement.

Manual therapy includes specific techniques used to treat musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction and can provide many benefits.   Physical and hand therapists incorporate manual therapy to assist a patient, restoring mobility, improving motor control, reducing pain, and improving movement efficiency.
