Treatments & Terminology
* Asterisked procedures require a high skill
level.
| •
Joint Mobilization*
- The application of movement and force to a joint for the
purpose of increasing motion
and pain free range. Can be used to reduce pain.
Sometimes
discomfort may accompany this procedure.
|
| •
Soft-Tissue
Massage
- The application of movement and force to muscles, ligaments,
nerves
or other soft-tissue for the purpose of promoting healing
and return to normal.
Can be used to reduce pain. Sometimes discomfort may accompany
this procedure.

| •
Pressure-Point
Release
- In this procedure the therapist
or clinical assistant searches
for muscles that are actively in spasm or causing pain. They
then push on the
muscle for 1-2 minutes. Initially it will cause soreness but
should diminish steadily.
This helps to normalize the muscles in that area.

Therapeutic
Exercises
- Strengthening and balancing the muscles around your
joints
are essential for good movement,
stability and pain relief. Physical therapists are
the leading experts in helping those with pain, arthritis,
obesity, diabetes and heart
disease get fit and strong safely. |
