This document discusses how clinical nutrition can be an important adjunct to manual therapy in treating patients. It notes that manual therapists see patients primarily for pain relief, but that pain is often caused or exacerbated by inflammation. Reducing inflammation through dietary changes, such as increasing omega-3 intake and decreasing the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, can help manual therapy be more effective and prevent secondary issues from developing. The document recommends that manual therapists guide patients towards anti-inflammatory nutrition therapies to address the root causes of inflammation and pain.
