Manual Therapy in Bačvice – When Massage Isn't Enough

Bačvice, with its famous sandy beach, is a vibrant part of Split. If you're feeling tense after a day of beach activities or exploring, manual therapy can offer a fantastic way to unwind and rejuvenate on Bačvice.

It's often thought that physical therapists only demonstrate exercises or use electrical devices. However, manual therapy is the "queen" of physical therapy. In private practices in Bačvice, this is the primary tool for resolving musculoskeletal problems. It involves specialized techniques (such as Maitland, Kaltenborn, Mulligan, or Cyriax) where the therapist uses only their hands to diagnose and treat movement restrictions, whether they are in the spine, joints of the hands and feet, or in soft tissue.

Located near Zenta, you'll find manual therapy services. Users have highly rated the salons in this area.

What Exactly Does the Therapist Do to Your Joints?

The goal of manual therapy isn't just relaxation, but restoring function. Treatment usually includes:

  • Joint mobilization: Gentle, rhythmic, and passive movements that gradually bring the joint to the extreme limit of movement to reduce stiffness and pain.
  • Manipulation: A rapid, small-range movement (often accompanied by a "click" or "pop" sound) that instantly releases a blocked joint and reduces pressure.
  • Traction: Stretching the joints to reduce pressure on the joint surfaces and discs.
  • Soft tissues: Specific treatment of ligaments and tendons to increase their elasticity.

Manual Therapy vs. Massage

Although both use touch, the difference is vast:

  • Massage primarily affects muscles and circulation (relaxation).
  • Manual therapy affects biomechanics – correcting how your joints and vertebrae move. It requires a high level of education and knowledge of anatomy.

Among the featured manual therapy services on Bačvice, prices typically range from 40 € to 55 €, depending on the salon and duration.

Who Is It Recommended For?

This therapy is the gold standard for:

  1. Back and neck pain: Including disc herniations and "stuck" backs.
  2. Headaches: Especially those that are cervicogenic (caused by problems in the cervical spine).
  3. Limited movement: After fractures, surgeries, or long periods of wearing a cast.
  4. Sports injuries: Tennis elbow, painful shoulder, or ankle sprains.
