Manual therapy is an evidence-based therapeutic approach that uses specialized hands-on techniques to treat musculoskeletal conditions. At RE-FYZIO we apply joint mobilization, soft tissue manipulation, and neurodynamic techniques, tailored to each patient's needs.
What to expect
The first session includes a comprehensive assessment. The therapist evaluates mobility, strength, and functional movement patterns. A personalized treatment protocol is then applied.
Does manual therapy hurt?
Manual therapy should not cause severe pain. There may be mild discomfort during certain techniques, but the therapist always adjusts intensity to your tolerance.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions depends on the nature of the condition. Typically 4-8 sessions are needed, though improvement is often noticed from the very first visits.
Is it covered by GeSY?
Yes, RE-FYZIO is a registered GeSY provider. Physiotherapy is covered with a referral from your personal physician.
What is the difference between manual therapy and physiotherapy?
Manual therapy is a specialized branch of physiotherapy focused on hands-on techniques. A physiotherapist specializing in manual therapy has additional postgraduate training.
