Here are some Commonly used Manual Therapy Techniques at CAP PT

In this video I perform a Trigger Point Release to his Upper Trapezius. I find this technique is very helpful reducing tissue tension, improving ROM and decreasing his pain. I never use just one technique as my treatment. This is typically used in conjunction with multiple manual therapy techniques.
In this video I perform levator scapulae pin and stretch technique to help reduce tension and relieve triggerpoints in the levator scapulae muscle. This technique is also performed to increase cervical range of motion in flexion, side bend, and rotation. At CAP Physical Therapy we perform a variety of manual therapy techniques.
In this video I perform a quadratus lumborum trigger point release. This muscle is commonly associated with lower back pain and do too it's muscular attachments can increase disc pressure and pain in your lower back.
In this Video I perform a trigger point release to the iliopsoas muscle. A trigger point in this muscle is commonly associated with lower back pain and once released can have a profound impact on reducing lower back pain.
