Techniques we use
Manual Therapy
These techniques include soft tissue massage, trigger point therapy, joint mobilisations and manipulation among others. We use them to reduce your pain and stiffness and help you to move better.
Dry Needling
Small pain-free needles are inserted into the muscles to reduce pain and improve range of movement. Great for people who find hands on treatment too intense.
Electrical Stimulation
Electrical current can stimulate the nerve endings and have a pain relieving effect. With the correct programming it can also be used to strengthen muscles and improve endurance.
Exercise Prescription
For long term results, it is important to address any underlying muscle weakness that could be contributing to your pain or dysfunction. Depending on your needs, stretching, balance and other exercises may also be recommended.
Muscle Re-Education
Strong muscles are great, but they also need to work synergistically with each other. Muscle re-education can help you learn how to use your muscles effectively and stay pain free.
Gait Aid Prescription
Having the right gait aid and knowing how to use it properly can be the difference between independence and needing assistance to get around. Adjustments can be made to promote correct posture and comfort.
