A Hands-On Approach to Treatment: Manual Therapy for Effective Pain Relief
Did You Know You Could Benefit from Our Manual Therapy Services?
Manual therapy, also referred to as hands-on therapy, can be described as a method in which licensed physical therapists use targeted hand movements to place pressure on specific areas of a patient’s body.
