Treatment
methods include
deep massage of muscles and connective tissues, as well as
using manipulation and the stretching of joints through passive
stretching techniques. This reduces muscle spasm,
increases mobility and creates a healthier state in which damaged
tissues can heal more efficiently.
Restoring
the symmetry of the spine and ribcage, whilst increasing the
flexibility of rigid areas is essential for long term health.
Following extensive research Paul Manley has developed many unique
physical therapy techniques such as 'Enhanced Cranial Technique'. This
particularb approach is used where there has been trauma to the cranium,
and in children and adults where there is some distortion in cranial
symmetry. This can result in glue
ear and
also in learning difficulties in children.
Head injuries can cause
long standing conditions, some of which can be relieved
using this approach. Head trauma, where not sufficient to produce
permanent damage can frequently result in mood and personality changes
as well as many other types of symptoms. (see article)
Abdominal congestion leads to conditions such as poor digestion
and bowel function as well as menstrual difficulties. Abdominal
de-congestion techniques can help greatly in such cases.
Incorrect breathing patterns can also be corrected through treatment
and education. Such patterns have a harmful effect on the posture
as well as on general health.
Tailored exercises are given when areas of muscle function are weak
and wasting as well as educating patients with regard to postural,
ergonomic and life style factors.
X-rays can be performed and assessed usually within
