Spinal manipulation is a technique used by physiotherapists to relieve pain and improve physical function, primarily focusing on the spine. This therapeutic procedure involves applying a controlled, low-amplitude, high-velocity thrust to spinal joints that are experiencing abnormal movement patterns or fail to function normally. The goal is to enhance joint mobility, alleviate muscle tension, and improve alignment, which can help reduce pain and aid in recovery.
At Village Physiotherapy, spinal manipulation begins with a comprehensive assessment to ensure it is suitable for your specific condition. It is typically integrated with other treatments like exercise, massage, and stretching for a holistic approach to spinal health. Our physiotherapists are highly skilled in safely applying manipulation techniques, focusing on precise areas to maximize relief and effectiveness. Throughout your treatment, we continuously monitor your progress and adjust our approach based on your feedback and the improvements in your condition, ensuring that our interventions are effective and aligned with your recovery goals.
Spinal manipulation can offer significant relief for patients with back pain, neck pain, and other musculoskeletal conditions. By restoring proper movement and function to spinal joints, this technique can play a crucial role in a patient's recovery and long-term spinal health. At Village Physiotherapy, we are committed to using our expertise to apply spinal manipulation safely and effectively, as part of a broader, personalized health care plan.
