Description

Rob and Dave talk with Chad about aspects of manual therapy techniques covering everything from massage through to joint based techniques.
They discuss how manual therapies work as tools for the clinician with the mechanisms impacting both directly on the site and influencing the spinal cord and brain.
If you believe it and want it bringing this together with the mechanisms of manual therapies can improve outcomes and this informative episode will help anyone understand better how and why manual therapies can be part of the  solution
 
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Manual therapy involves the skilled use of the hands to decrease pain and increase the range of movement
It can be a range of different techniques
Joint based techniques, soft tissue techniques and nerve based techniques all makeup manual therapy
The techniques have mechanisms directly impacting the site and also influence the spinal cord and the brain.
You need to find the right clinician; it should be someone you trust
Manipulation frees up endorphins that are associated with pain relief
Following manipulation, the feeling of well-being is recognised as being from the endorphins and influence the brain and how it controls pain modulation
Contextual factors also play a role in improving patient outcomes
If you believe it and want it and really think it’s going to work its likely to work
It’s about matching the expectations of the patient and working together towards the goals
Manual therapy is recommended and in conjunction with other treatments, it can aid recovery.
Research indicates that massage results in a large dopamine release along with serotonin.

 
BEST MOMENTS
‘Manual therapy is a lot of things and it has a bit of an identity crisis’
‘Shared decision making is finding a common joint belief that will help the patient’
‘As clinicians, we need to open the window of opportunity for manual therapies’
