What are the benefits of manual therapy for chronic pain?

Manual therapy is the use of hands-on techniques, such as mobilisation and muscle manipulation, to manually treat a range of neurological, cardio-respiratory, and orthopedic conditions. It dates back almost 2,500 years, although the practices used by professional therapists are far more advanced.

The use of manual therapy can deliver a wide range of rewards for patients experiencing chronic pains, including but not limited to;

• Pain reduction due to increased blood oxygen levels, reduced inflammation, muscle relaxation, and mental tranquility.
• Increased mobility due to improved flexibility, range of movements, and adhesions between soft tissues in the affected area.
• Improved muscle function and extensibility, which can also improve stability, strength, and conditioning of muscles.

The benefits of manual therapy can subsequently reduce the impact that chronic pains have on your life, thus enabling you to complete daily assignments with greater ease and comfort. Patients throughout Milton Keynes and the surrounding areas can, therefore, expect to enjoy a far better quality of life.

Manual therapy can be supported by physical therapies and exercises either at home or in the office to take those rewards to the next level.
