Hi there! So manual therapy is a very broad term for any therapy done by hand. In practice, this might be anything from a light holding release to a finger impulse to mobilisations to manipulations - it really depends on 1. how old the person I'm treating is, 2. how developed they are, 3. if it is appropriate, and 4. compliance. Then we have options to use specific tools to help us as well! It's a bit of a tricky question to answer as there really is a lot that depends on what the person has going on! Thanks for reaching out, Christian
