Therapy

At Regenesis Physiotherapy in Subang Jaya, we offer manual therapy as a core part of our treatment plans. This hands-on approach helps address pain at the source by improving joint mobility, releasing tight muscles, and restoring proper movement patterns.
What Is Manual Therapy?
Manual therapy is a specialised form of physiotherapy where trained hands do the work, not machines. It involves gentle, targeted movements applied to your muscles, joints, or connective tissues to improve mobility, reduce pain, and restore balance.
Unlike machines or general stretching routines, manual therapy uses skilled touch to assess and correct soft tissue and joint issues. Whether you’re recovering from an injury or dealing with chronic back or knee pain, this technique is designed to get you moving better, without relying on medication or invasive treatments.
How Does Manual Therapy Work?
- Reduces pressure on irritated nerves
- Improves blood flow and lymphatic drainage
- Releases muscle knots and tension
- Restores natural joint movement
Manual therapy is especially effective for patients who have limited range of motion or experience recurring pain despite rest. At Regenesis, it’s often combined with other treatments like stretching, strengthening, and electrotherapy for better results.
What Does Manual Therapy Help With?
- Chronic Neck and Back Pain
- Tennis Elbow and Joint Inflammation
- Knee Stiffness and Mobility Loss
- Postural Issues and Scoliosis-Related Discomfort
- Sports Recovery and Muscle Imbalance
Our Manual Therapy Techniques

Targeted Joint Mobilisation
Gentle oscillations or gliding movements are applied to stiff joints, especially the spine, knees, or shoulders to reduce pain and restore movement without forceful cracking or manipulation. It’s especially helpful after injury or prolonged immobility.

Soft Tissue Release & Myofascial
Tight fascia (connective tissue) can restrict movement and create tension across the body. Through slow, sustained pressure, our therapists help release fascial adhesions, muscle knots, and trigger points that often cause pain and reduced flexibility.

Mulligan Concept of Manual Therapy
This method combines therapist-applied movement with patient participation to reposition joints during motion to eliminate pain and restore normal function, especially for joints like the elbow, shoulder, and knee. It’s effective for conditions like tennis elbow and mechanical joint pain.

Maitland, McKenzie, and Kaltenborn-Evjenth Methods
These internationally recognised manual therapy methods are used to gently mobilise joints, relieve disc-related neck and back pain, and restore natural movement. Each approach is selected based on your pain level, diagnosis, and recovery goals.

Manual Muscle Testing and Functional Assessment
Before we treat, we test. Manual muscle testing helps us understand where weakness, compensation, or imbalance exists. From there, we plan which manual therapy techniques will best correct the issue, and follow up with tailored strengthening work.

FAQ on Manual Therapy
Frequently Asked Questions
Manual therapy is generally well-tolerated. Some techniques may produce mild discomfort, especially when targeting tight or sensitive tissues, but pain is not the goal. Therapists at Regenesis adjust pressure and technique based on patient tolerance to ensure both safety and effectiveness.
Many patients report an improvement in mobility and a reduction in discomfort after just one to three sessions. However, outcomes depend on the severity and chronicity of the condition, overall health status, and adherence to complementary treatment recommendations.
No referral is necessary. Patients may book directly with Regenesis Physiotherapy. However, for complex cases or those involving post-surgical care, collaboration with referring physicians may be advised to ensure continuity of care.
Yes. Manual therapy can be adapted for older adults and post-surgical patients. Techniques are modified to accommodate fragile tissues, joint limitations, and medical considerations. The goal remains consistent: to restore function, manage pain, and support safe mobility.
Manual therapy, as practiced by physiotherapists, emphasises soft tissue mobilisation, graded joint mobilisations, and movement retraining. Chiropractic care often centres around high-velocity spinal adjustments. While both disciplines address musculoskeletal dysfunction, their techniques, theoretical foundations, and scopes of practice differ.
