What is Manual Therapy With A Chiropractor?

When the spine is painful or misaligned, the body can develop trigger points, often described as tender “knots” in tight bands of muscle.

• Trigger points (also called myofascial trigger points) are small, sensitive spots within muscle or fascia.
• Fascia is a thin, flexible tissue that surrounds and connects your muscles. When it becomes tight or inflamed, it can cause ongoing pain and stiffness.
• These myofascial disorders can lead to persistent muscle and joint discomfort if left untreated.

How Can Manual Therapy Help?

Chiropractic manual therapy works to relieve pain and restore proper function by:

• Releasing trigger points using hands-on techniques or handheld tools
• Massaging tender areas to loosen tight muscles and fascia
• Stretching inflamed or sore tissues to improve flexibility and reduce tension

Choosing a specialist who can address both the spine and surrounding muscles and fascia can provide better long-term relief.
