Manual Therapy |Trusted Pain and Wellness Clinic in Reno

Our manual physical therapy services are not like those found in typical outpatient PT clinics. At Thunder Pain & Wellness, patients receive highly individualized, one-on-one care from experienced therapists who work closely with our medical and behavioral health providers.

We combine advanced hands-on techniques with a deep understanding of how the nervous system, muscles, and fascia contribute to pain and function. Whether you’re recovering from injury, managing a chronic condition, or seeking relief from pelvic floor dysfunction, we tailor every session to your needs — and we never hand you off to an aide or a generic protocol.

What Makes Our Manual Physical Therapy Different?

100% one-on-one sessions with licensed providers — no groups, no rushed visits
Hands-on care focused on addressing the root causes of pain, not just symptoms
Collaboration across disciplines, including pain management, mental health, and neuromodulation therapies
Whole-person focus, integrating physical recovery with nervous system regulation and emotional wellbeing

How Does It Work?

Our manual physical therapy is fully one-on-one, hands-on, and deeply integrative. While traditional PT often focuses on exercise and treats multiple patients per hour, our approach is tailored, collaborative, and focused on complex or chronic conditions. Our approach includes techniques such as:

Craniosacral Therapy
Muscle Energy Technique
Myofascial Release
Neuromuscular Reeducation
Soft Tissue Mobilization
Strain Counterstrain
Trigger Point Therapy

These techniques help reduce pain, release tension, improve circulation and alignment, and calm an overactive nervous system. We also work with patients to retrain movement patterns and improve body awareness — essential components for long-term healing.
