Types of Soft Tissue Therapy
Our chiropractor performs several types of soft tissue therapies. Two of the most common are manual soft tissue mobilization and percussion therapy.
Below are further details about them:
Manual Soft Tissue Mobilization
Chiropractic manual soft tissue mobilization is a hands-on technique for relieving pain and improving musculoskeletal functions. This treatment eases tensions and restrictions in the body’s muscles, fascia, and other soft tissues. Often, our chiropractor uses manual soft tissue mobilization to aid other treatment efforts.
During treatment, our chiropractor applies gentle pressure and stretches impacted areas. Doing so breaks up adhesions and scar tissue and eases tightness. This can improve range of motion, lessen pain, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
Tools our chiropractor uses during manual soft tissue mobilization include massage balls and foam rollers.
Percussion Therapy
In a percussion therapy session, our chiropractor uses a specialized device to deliver quick and repetitive strikes to specific areas of the body. These strikes may vary in intensity, frequency, and pressure depending on the goal of treatment.
Percussion therapy can loosen tight muscles and connective tissues, improve circulation, and promote healing in the affected area. The rapid movements also stimulate nerves and relieve tension. Many patients find percussion therapy to be relaxing.
