FCAMPT Manual Therapy
FCAMPT Manual Therapy at Thrive Now
FCAMPT stands for “Fellows of the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Physiotherapy.” CAMPT-Certified Physiotherapists have advanced training and clinical abilities in Orthopedic assessment as well as manual (hands-on) therapeutic treatment techniques.
Only some Physiotherapists in Canada are CAMPT-Certified Physiotherapists. CAMPT-Certified Physiotherapists are those who earn their FCAMPT designation by completing an internationally accredited Physiotherapy education program beyond the core university education required to become a Physiotherapist in Canada.
At Thrive Now, our co-owner, Vince Avery, is a Fellow of CAMPT! In addition to treating with specialized care, he provides FCAMPT mentorships to graduates looking to further their skills in physiotherapy.
Treatments by FCAMPT Physiotherapists
FCAMPT Physiotherapists use a combination of manual/hands-on techniques, and joint manipulation techniques to assist in treating patients with various musculoskeletal conditions throughout the body. Using a thorough clinical history and physical examination, FCAMPT clinicians combine manual techniques with education and exercises to individualize each client’s pathway through rehabilitation.
What is Joint Manipulation?
Joint manipulation is a unique, high level, regulated skill that can help to reduce pain and improve movement and function. More specifically, joint manipulation is the application of a rapid force movement that helps to create space (or gapping) of a joint. The gapping created helps to change the firing pattern of pain nerves, allowing a person to experience less pain. Research has shown that manipulation therapy, in combination with other therapy components such as education and exercise, can help you return to pain-free living faster.
