Services
Dry Needling
Using fine acupuncture needles to stimulate muscle healing, release trigger points, and improve circulation. This evidence-based technique targets myofascial pain and dysfunction by creating micro-injuries that activate the body's natural repair mechanisms. Particularly effective for chronic muscle tension and sports injuries when combined with other physiotherapy interventions.
Laser Therapy
Delivering dual-wavelength MLS laser energy to reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and accelerate tissue repair. The 905nm superpulsed and 808nm continuous wavelengths work synergistically to address both acute injuries and chronic conditions. Treatments last 3-10 minutes with measurable improvements often apparent after initial sessions for conditions like tendinitis and arthritis.
Shockwave Therapy
Administering high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate healing in chronic musculoskeletal conditions. This non-invasive treatment improves blood flow, reduces pain, and restores function in stubborn injuries like plantar fasciitis and rotator cuff tendinopathy. Utilises Chattanooga Intelect RPW 2 technology for precise, targeted delivery to affected soft tissues.
Rehabilitation Programs
Developing customised exercise regimens and manual therapy protocols to restore mobility and prevent re-injury. Combines strength training, flexibility exercises, and functional movement patterns tailored to individual needs. Focuses on correcting biomechanical imbalances and building resilience for long-term musculoskeletal health.
Spinal Manipulation
Performing controlled vertebral adjustments to improve spinal mobility and nervous system function. This hands-on technique addresses joint restrictions, reduces nerve irritation, and enhances overall musculoskeletal performance. Integrated with other treatments to optimise outcomes for back and neck pain conditions.
