Manual therapy is a clinical approach involving hands-on techniques including manipulations, mobilisations and massage to diagnose and treat soft tissues and joints.

Manual therapy is used to reduce pain, increase the range of joint movement, reduce or eliminate soft tissue inflammation, improve tissue repair, encourage relaxation and improve the body’s general function.

At Modus Physiotherapy all our therapists have undertaken post-graduate training to ensure the highest levels of practice in manual therapy techniques. These techniques are effective in treating neck, back and thoracic pains, muscle spasm, joint injuries, tension headaches, TMJ/jaw dysfunction, and in post surgery recovery.
