- Joint Mobilisations: Joint mobilisations are a form of manual therapy that can help decrease pain and improve range of motion.
- Soft Tissue Massage: Soft tissue massage is another form of manual therapy involving hands-on techniques to break adhesions and optimise muscle function.
- Shockwave: Shockwave treatments deliver shock waves to injured soft tissue to reduce pain and promote healing.
- Dry Needling: Dry needling can decrease pain and tightness, increase blood flow, and reduce pain in tightly bound muscle fibres.
- Electrotherapy: Electrical nerve stimulation primarily relieves pain, but can also reduce inflammation and strengthen muscles.
You may also benefit from pilates and fitness training on your way to recovery and beyond.
