Manual Therapy

Relieve Pain and Restore Motion with Manual Therapy

Manual therapy is a hands-on approach to healing that focuses on improving movement, reducing pain, and restoring function through skilled touch. At Diversified Physical Therapy Specialists, our licensed therapists use a variety of techniques—including joint mobilization, soft tissue manipulation, and gentle stretching—to address stiffness, muscle tightness, and restricted motion. These precise methods help enhance circulation, reduce inflammation, and encourage your body’s natural healing processes. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, managing chronic pain, or simply trying to move with greater ease, manual therapy can help restore balance and flexibility while complementing your overall treatment plan. Each one-on-one session is personalized to your needs, ensuring focused, effective care that supports long-term mobility and comfort.
