What does it involve?

Manual therapy utilizes grips and pressure to stimulate muscles and joints.
The most commonly used techniques include: massage, stretching, joint manipulation and mobilization,
neuromobilization, soft tissue mobilization, and trigger point therapy.

The therapy is safe and non-invasive. It includes a functional assessment of the patient
(physiotherapy consultations at Rycerska 4)
and an analysis of the musculoskeletal, fascial, and visceral systems, followed by the development
and implementation of appropriate therapy.
