Treatment Techniques

Our Treatment Techniques

1. Listening

Your treatment starts with a 30-60 minute consultation so we can take the time to listen and understand the root cause of your pain and movement difficulty and learn more about you and your lifestyle.

We listen to the details of how your pain and injury is affecting you so we can plan our physical assessment to develop a treatment plan.

2. Physical assessment and movement analysis

We assess functional capacity and movement, analysing strength, joint movement and
stiffness, tissue flexibility, balance, coordination, walking and posture.

3. Massage and myofascial release

Our massage treatments involve applying pressure into the muscle to slowly relieve tension
and promote healing.

The techniques we use aim to reduce pain and help improve movement.

4. Joint mobilisations

This hands-on therapy helps to reduce pain, improve joint function and increase range of motion around a specific joint.

We gently stabilise one segment of a joint while applying appropriate, oscillating force to the
adjoining body region.

5. Dry needling

If suitable for you this technique involves inserting fine needles into muscle knots to reduce
pain, improve mobility and function.

By targeting trigger points, the affected muscle is stimulated, which can provide pain relief.

6. Taping and bracing

A common treatment for sports injuries and everyday aches, we tape and brace. Either estabilising an injured joint, while retaining a degree of movement.

Or bracing it completely to suit longer-lasting injuries to joints that carry the body’s weight

7. Exercise rehabilitation

We teach and provide therapeutic exercises to be completed at home to help your recovery and/ or management of your condition.

This can range from gentle yet effective exercise, to more advanced and higher exertional exercises depending on your stage of recovery and goals.

We also offer tailored, supervised exercise rehabilitation classes to focus on re-building muscle strength, power, balance, mobility and movement confidence after injury.

While helping those living with chronic physical conditions maintain strength to better manage symptoms.

8. Health education

Good health isn’t spontaneous, rather an outcome of balanced and intentional living.

We equip you with an understanding of your body and/or condition, allowing you to lead a limitless life, putting the power back in your hands.

9. Other specialised treatments

Depending on your condition we provide a range of more specialised treatments for a range
of conditions including vertigo, respiratory, pelvic floor, TMJ and neurological conditions.
