Services
Manual therapy
Hands-on manual therapy techniques aim to mobilise your soft tissue (muscles, ligaments, tendons, fascia etc), reduce pain, improve joint mobility and improve movement patterns. Common manual therapy techniques include: myofascial release, trigger point therapy, friction scar/adhesion release and joint mobilisations.
Taping
Taping techniques (both rigid and kinesio tape) can be used to help support injured joints, improve body awareness and posture, increase muscle control and improve circulation to manage oedema. Examples of conditions kinesio tape is used to treat include: muscular facilitation or inhibition, carpal tunnel syndrome, lower back strain/pain, knee conditions, shoulder conditions including rotator cuff injury, hamstring injuries, tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis, patella tracking and ankle sprains.
Focused rehabilitation
Specialist physiotherapy treatment for people with disorders of movement, posture and function that arise from impairments of the body’s neuromuscular and nervous systems. These conditions often present with muscle weakness, increased tone or spasticity, reduced coordination, sensation loss, decreased balance and altered mobility and function. Goal-focused treatment includes exercise prescription and facilitation, tone management, activity modifications and re-education of key functions.
Hydrotherapy
Hydrotherapy enables you to perform activities that you may be unable to do on dry land. The water supports you, so that you can move without putting your full weight through your joints and provides buoyancy to assist you to move weaker areas more easily. Our physiotherapist can provide and assist you with a hydrotherapy program at a local accessible swimming pool. You may need to have a family member or carer present.
Exercise prescription
Exercises are the key component to rehabilitation. With the correct exercises prescribed and progressed for you it will work towards increasing strength, mobility and optimal function. Pilates is a form of exercise that focuses on posture, core stability, balance, control, strength, flexibility and breathing.
Education
Learning about your body and your injury is a key step in recovery and rehabilitation. You will be educated on your injury, what to do, what not to do and how to continue to progress at home and in your daily life.
