About Manual Therapy Services
At The Chiro Concept, manual therapy is a cornerstone of our personalized, hands-on approach to care. This technique-driven practice addresses a variety of musculoskeletal conditions, helping to relieve pain, restore movement, and enhance the body’s natural ability to heal.
Our chiropractors use skilled, targeted methods to work directly with your joints, muscles, and soft tissues. By doing so, we aim to reduce tension, improve function, and support optimal mobility—whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic discomfort, or striving for better performance in daily activities.
Our Manual Therapy Techniques Include:
- Spinal Adjustments
Carefully applied adjustments help realign the spine, improve mobility, and reduce nerve irritation. This method is essential for supporting proper nervous system function and alleviating back and neck pain. - Manual Stretching
We use guided stretches to improve flexibility, relieve stiffness, and promote better posture. Stretching also helps increase your range of motion and prevent future injuries by keeping your muscles and joints balanced. - Soft Tissue Mobilization
This technique targets tight muscles, fascia, and scar tissue to break down adhesions, promote circulation, and restore muscle elasticity. It’s particularly effective for chronic tension, repetitive strain injuries, and postural imbalances. - Joint Mobilization
Gentle, controlled movements are used to encourage proper joint function. This helps reduce pain, improve joint integrity, and prevent degeneration over time, especially in weight-bearing joints. - Muscle Energy Techniques (MET)
MET involves using your own muscle contractions to help lengthen tight muscles and improve alignment. It’s a highly interactive, effective method for improving strength, flexibility, and joint mobility.
Each session at The Chiro Concept is tailored to your body’s unique needs and goals. We believe that manual therapy isn’t just about treatment—it’s about empowering you to move better, feel stronger, and live a more comfortable, active life.
Whether you’re seeking relief from chronic pain, recovering from physical strain, addressing limited mobility, or simply aiming to optimize how your body moves, our manual therapy sessions are designed to support your journey toward lasting wellness and functional health.

Frequently Ask Questions
What is manual therapy?
Manual therapy is a hands-on treatment approach that uses manipulation of muscles, joints, and soft tissues to relieve pain and improve mobility. It includes techniques such as deep tissue massage, joint mobilization, and myofascial release to reduce tension and enhance movement.
What conditions can manual therapy treat?
Manual therapy is beneficial for various conditions, including muscle tightness, joint stiffness, post-injury recovery, chronic pain, and mobility restrictions. It is commonly used for conditions such as whiplash, frozen shoulder, and sciatica.
How does manual therapy differ from a chiropractic adjustment?
Manual therapy focuses on soft tissues, including muscles and fascia, using techniques such as massage and stretching. Chiropractic adjustments, on the other hand, specifically target spinal misalignments and joint dysfunction to restore proper alignment and nerve function.

Sessions typically last between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the techniques used and the patient’s treatment plan.
