therapeutic techniques

Curative treatment approaches

Methods used to treat psychological, emotional, or physical conditions.

The therapist introduced several therapeutic techniques to help manage her anxiety.

The term also applies to physical rehabilitation: massage, stretching, and movement exercises designed to restore function or reduce pain.
