Is Manual Therapy Painful?
Well, that’s not a straightforward question. When an area of the body is injured, even the slightest touch can amplify discomfort. However, the capacity of manual therapy to relieve pain is well-documented, and when conducted by our expert physical therapists at our Birmingham & Solihull, Coventry & Warwickshire and London clinic, the benefits are significantly amplified!
The goal of manual therapy is to decrease pain, and many patients experience instant relief! Our physiotherapists employ secure, highly effective manual therapy techniques to mobilize stiff joints and tense soft tissues. These methods are highly effective in treating joint swelling, tissue edema, joint restrictions, and soft tissue tension and restrictions/adhesions.
Our proficient therapists will thoroughly explain what you can anticipate from our manual therapy methods. Having a clear understanding of what to expect is crucial for managing any temporary increase in symptoms and alleviates fears about the condition worsening.
Post-treatment soreness following a manual therapy session may occur, but this is temporary and should not last more than 24-48 hours. Your therapist can adjust the pressure and techniques used during therapy to minimize any discomfort and ensure overall pain reduction.
It’s common for patients to experience immediate pain relief and improvements in joint or soft tissue mobility after a single manual therapy session. The aim is never to cause more pain, so maintaining open communication with your therapist is essential for positive results!
What Manual Therapies Are Available?
Care & Cure will use a variety of therapeutic techniques to relieve your pain. Here are some examples of popular manual therapy treatments:
Other common causes of lower back pain include:
Did you go a little too hard at the gym? Overexertion and improper lifting techniques can strain your back muscles, resulting in pain and limited mobility. Targeted exercises that strengthen and stabilize your lower back can alleviate discomfort and prevent similar injuries in the future.
As you age, your spinal discs can start to wear down, leading to a loss of their shock-absorbing properties–and an increase in lower back pain. We’ll work with you to slow the progression of disc degeneration by improving strength and mobility in your back.
When one of the cushiony discs between your vertebrae ruptures or bulges, it can lead to pain and discomfort in your lower back. While herniated discs usually heal on their own, we’ll offer pain management strategies and strengthening exercises to relieve discomfort and restore function.
When you slouch or spend too much time sitting, it leads to stress on the spine and surrounding muscles, leading to pain and discomfort. We’ll show you proven techniques for correcting postural impairments and strengthening your core so your spine gets the support it needs.
