Introdução: A neurofisiologia vem evoluindo enormemente nas últimas décadas, possibilitando o melhor entendimento de técnicas utilizadas na reabilitação de pacientes com disfunção de movimento e dor. Técnicas de terapia manual estão se tornando cada vez mais populares com resultados bastante positivos. O estudo da aplicação destas técnicas permanece na maioria das vezes no ambiente clínico, mostrando comparativamente os benefícios da sua aplicação. Objetivo: Revisar os mecanismos neurofisiológicos da aplicação das técnicas de terapia manual. Métodos: O estudo baseia-se na revisão de literatura especializada sobre o tema, composta de livros e artigos publicados em revistas indexadas nacionais e internacionais. Conclusão: Os principais efeitos da aplicação das técnicas são: hipoalgesia, inibição do espasmo muscular por influência na excitabilidade do motoneurônio, melhora do controle motor e repercussões no sistema nervoso autônomo. Os benefícios parecem estar mais envolvidos com o efeito hipoalgésico, tanto por mecanismos periféricos quanto centrais.
