Manual Therapy

Manual therapy is a branch of physiotherapy which specialises in the treatment of musculoskeletal problems that involves structures such as muscles, nerves and joints.

Manual therapy involves hands-on physiotherapy techniques such as joint mobilisation, soft tissue techniques, trigger point release and manipulation.

Manual physiotherapists use a combination of these hands-on techniques as well as advice on appropriate stretching and strengthening exercises to restore function.

Acupuncture & Dry Needling

Acupuncture is the insertion of fine needles into specific points of the body to ease pain, promote healing and general well-being.

Dry Needling involves needling to altered or dysfunctional tissues in order to improve, or restore function. This may include needling of Myofascial trigger points, periosteum or other soft tissues.
