Joint Manipulative Therapy
Joint manipulative therapy is a hands-on physiotherapy technique designed to restore restricted joint movement and reduce pain quickly. When performed correctly, it can provide noticeable relief and improved mobility in just one session.
What Is Joint Manipulative Therapy?
Joint manipulation is a quick, controlled movement applied to a stiff or restricted joint. It helps restore normal motion, reduce pain and reset surrounding muscle tension. The technique is precise, targeted and always performed after a full assessment.
Key Benefits:
- Restores normal joint movement
- Reduces joint-related pain
- Helps reset surrounding muscle tension
- Releases built-up stiffness
Joint manipulation focuses on improving movement and comfort — the sound is simply a by-product, not the goal.
