At Lake Gwelup Physiotherapy, we provide expert manual therapy and hands-on physiotherapy to help treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. Our highly trained physiotherapists work with patients from Gwelup, Karrinyup, Stirling, Balcatta, Innaloo, Carine and surrounding suburbs to restore movement, reduce pain, and improve overall function.
What is Manual Therapy?
Manual therapy involves a variety of specialised hands-on physiotherapy techniques designed to address:
- Stiff or restricted joints
- Muscle tightness and soreness
- Ligament injuries and tendinopathies
- Irritated or compressed nerves
Our manual therapy techniques include:
- Joint mobilisations and manipulations
- Soft tissue therapy, including deep tissue massage, trigger point release, and myofascial release
- Muscle energy techniques and nerve mobilisations
These treatments are aimed at improving movement, reducing discomfort, often to support an improvement in outcomes from exercise-based rehabilitation.
Why Combine Manual Therapy with Exercise?
Manual therapy outcomes are often enhanced when combined with exercise therapy. Exercise plays a key role in strengthening affected areas and reducing the risk of future injuries or flare-ups.
At Lake Gwelup Physiotherapy, our physiotherapists undertake regular advanced training to ensure our manual therapy techniques remain current and evidence-based. Our focus is always on delivering personalised care for the best possible results.
