Manual Therapy in Lafayette and Shreveport, LA
What it is
Manual Therapy is targeted, hands-on care that helps your joints, muscles, and nerves move the way they should. Your FHPT clinician uses skilled techniques like soft tissue mobilization, joint mobilization, trigger point release, and nerve glides to reduce pain and restore healthy motion. The goal is simple. Calm irritated tissues, improve circulation, and create the right window for strength and mobility work to stick.
Who it helps
Manual Therapy can help neck pain, low back pain, shoulder impingement, knee pain, hip tightness, plantar fasciitis, tennis or golfer’s elbow, and postural strain. It also supports recovery after sprains, strains, and overuse injuries. If you feel stiff, guarded, or stuck in a movement pattern, hands-on work can make the first rep feel possible again.
Why FHPT
At Fulco & Hall Performance & Therapy, Manual Therapy is not a quick rub and go. We start with a focused movement screen to find the real driver of your pain. Then we pair the right hands-on technique with corrective exercise that holds the change between visits. Our team treats active adults, busy professionals, and athletes, so the plan fits your life and your goals. Two clinic locations in Shreveport and Broussard make it easy to stay consistent, which is where results happen.
