Manual Therapy & Physiotherapy in Kolkata

Overview

Manual therapy is a specialized hands-on approach within physiotherapy. It involves skilled hand movements to manipulate muscles, joints, and soft tissues to reduce pain, improve movement, and speed up healing. At Chiropractic Solution in Kolkata, our manual therapy techniques are the foundation of our physiotherapy practice.

How It Works

Manual therapy includes several techniques: joint mobilization (gently moving joints to improve their range of motion), soft tissue massage (releasing tight muscles and fascia), trigger point therapy (deactivating painful knots in muscles), and stretching techniques.

These hands-on techniques work by improving blood circulation to injured tissues, reducing muscle tension and spasm, breaking down scar tissue, and stimulating the body's natural pain-relieving mechanisms. Manual therapy is especially effective when combined with exercise therapy and electrotherapy.

At our Kalighat clinic, manual therapy is used for a wide range of conditions including back pain, neck stiffness, frozen shoulder, post-surgical tightness, and sports injuries. Each session is tailored to your specific needs, and our physiotherapist adjusts the technique intensity based on your comfort and condition.
