Manipulations
It’s the job of your physical therapist in to improve your quality of life by helping you recover from injuries and chronic conditions. At Basecamp Physical Therapy, one of the techniques we use to make this happen is orthopedic joint manipulation.
While this is a service that many patients associate with chiropractic care, physical therapists may offer this type of service under certain circumstances. Our professionals use physical therapy joint manipulation to help patients manage pain, increase or maintain flexibility, allow for full range of motion and enjoy other benefits.
What Is Orthopedic Joint Manipulation?
Orthopedic joint manipulation is a type of treatment that can help patients decrease pain, improve musculoskeletal health, improve joint function and more. There are different types of orthopedic joint manipulation.
Your physical therapist will be able to determine the type of joint manipulation is right for you based on the severity of the joint pain that you’re experiencing, as well as the location of the pain. After some examination, your physical therapist will recommend manipulation that can help you. The physical therapist will test you on factors like balance, posture and range of motion to decide which is best for you.
