Manual therapy is a broad term for any hands-on bodywork approaches used by trained practitioners to help assess and treat musculoskeletal pain, movement restrictions, and general discomfort. It includes a range of trainings and techniques — from massage through to more targeted bodywork treatments — that work with the body’s muscles, joints, connective tissues, and nervous system regulation.
Osteopathy and Acupuncture are also manual therapies. They are regulated professions and have their own pages in the menu above under Services.
People often explore massage and manual therapy when they are dealing with ongoing pain, injury recovery, persistent tension, or movement that doesn’t feel quite right. Some treatments are more structural and focused on specific areas of concern. Others take a gentler, more calming approach. Some sessions are highly targeted, while others are designed as broader whole-body care. Our practitioners have varied backgrounds and training, so feel free to read their bios to find the best fit for your needs.
