Joint manipulation is a manual therapy process that is used to help restore movement and functionality to various joints and parts of the body.

Joint manipulation is beneficial for:

• • patients who are aging and whose joints are distressed and not working properly,
  • patients who have sustained serious injuries and lost partial or full function in one or more joints,
  • patients who have just had surgery on a joint and need to work it back into shape.

You’re likely familiar with the techniques used thanks to chiropractor services and pop culture depictions. Chiropractic treatments, and some manual therapists, tend to utilize thrust manipulations. This is when the practitioner uses a targeted high-velocity force to suddenly pop the joint into alignment or stretch it for an effect. However, it’s not always like that.

In manual therapy, it is most common for targeted movements to be made directly on the joint to slowly build up its strength, range of motion, and overall functionality.

The position that you’re in for such treatments tends to change depending on the joint being treated. For example, most spinal joint manipulation is done while the patient is lying facedown.

There are a lot of factors that need to be considered before any treatment is administered. You’re different, the situation that caused your ailment is unique, and that means that you need a treatment plan that is just as unique as you and your situation.
