Our Treatments

Depending on assessment findings your physiotherapist will plan your treatment. Initially we often need to focus on decreasing pain using techniques such as manual therapy, massage, myofascial dry needling, taping and gentle exercise. As symptoms settle , treatment becomes more active , we focus on restoring movement and strength to the area to help  prevent the problem recurring.

Excellent therapist - spend 10 mins questioning medical history, symptoms, health history, performed a careful examination and then worked on my shoulder and neck getting right to the nub of the problem.
