Fellowship in Orthopaedic Manual Therapy: Where Hands Become Healers and Confidence Becomes Clinical Mastery

Have you ever faced a patient with chronic low back pain, frozen shoulder, or stubborn post-operative stiffness—and felt that exercises, electrotherapy, and basic mobilizations just weren’t enough?

You followed the protocol.
You prescribed the right exercises.
Yet the pain persisted…the movement stayed restricted… and the results plateaued.

That moment of uncertainty isn’t a failure — it’s a signal that your hands need a higher level of skill.

Welcome to the Fellowship in Orthopaedic Manual Therapy at Physioneeds Academy — where physiotherapists evolve from protocol followers into clinical decision-makers and manual therapy specialists.

Why Orthopaedic Manual Therapy Is the Missing Link

Modern orthopaedic conditions are rarely isolated to a single joint or tissue. They are 3D problems involving joints, fascia, nerves, viscera, posture, and movement patterns. Yet most professionals are trained only in:

  • Grade I–II mobilizations
  • Exercise-only rehabilitation
  • Symptom-focused treatment
True breakthroughs happen when you understand what to release, where to mobilize, how much force to apply, and when to integrate movement. That is exactly what this fellowship delivers.

What Is the Fellowship in Orthopaedic Manual Therapy?

The Fellowship in Orthopaedic Manual Therapy is an advanced, clinically focused program designed to help physiotherapists master hands-on diagnosis and treatment for complex musculoskeletal conditions.
It bridges the gap between:

  • Theory and real-world practice
  • Assessment and precision treatment
  • Confidence and consistent outcomes
This is not about learning one technique.
This is about learning how to think, feel, and treat like an expert manual therapist.

What Makes This Fellowship Different

Advanced Manual Therapy Integration
Learn and integrate multiple global approaches including soft tissue, joint, neural, visceral, and 3D manual therapy — not in isolation, but as one cohesive clinical system.
High-Precision Palpation Skills
Develop the ability to feel what others miss — deep capsular restrictions, fascial locks, neural tension, and dysfunctional joint play.
Clinical Reasoning Over Protocols
Move beyond “one-size-fits-all” rehab. Learn how to tailor treatment for chronic pain, post-surgical cases, and non-responders.

Outcome-Driven Learning
Every technique is taught with one question in mind:
“Will this change the patient’s function?”

Mentorship by Global Leaders
Train under the guidance of Dr. Chakshu Bansal (Ph.D., 3-time World Record Holder) with academic leadership from Prof. Krishna N. Sharma, creator of Krishna’s Kinetikinetic Manual Therapy (KKMT).
