Therapeutic Massage for your physical recovery and general well-being.<\/span><\/span><\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>
<\/div>

Manual therapy<\/strong>, commonly known as therapeutic massage<\/strong>, is one of the most effective techniques in physical therapy for relieving tension, improving circulation, reducing muscle soreness, and restoring physical and emotional balance. At Fisitania Physiotherapy<\/strong>, our specialised physiotherapists apply this technique in a personalised way, adapting it to the specific needs of each patient. <\/p>\n

This treatment not only seeks to relieve muscle discomfort, but also acts on the nervous system, helping to reduce stress, improve flexibility and speed up recovery from injuries. Through controlled movements, stretching, and pressure, therapeutic massage has a profound impact on the body’s soft tissues, improving their elasticity and functionality. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

What is manual therapy?<\/span><\/span><\/h2>
<\/div>

Manual therapy<\/strong> or therapeutic massage<\/strong> is a set of maneuvers that are performed on the skin, muscles and underlying tissues to treat various muscle and joint conditions, improve circulation and relieve tension. Unlike recreational or aesthetic massages, manual therapy is aimed at treating specific dysfunctions, restoring body balance and improving movement functionality. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
