Dry Needling / Acupuncture

Pain from muscle can be very severe at times and is under estimated the amount of cases that are as a result of myofascial trigger points within the muscle i.e. “knots in the muscle”.

The physiotherapist is trained to feel these under the skin and using an acupuncture needle they are resolved with great effect.

Myofascial Release
/Soft Tissue Massage

Fascia is a tissue that surrounds all of our muscles and it can get very tight and painful. The tightness can cause limitation of movement and the physio. can see this when she assess’ the patient. Based on the assessment a technique called myofascial release is used to the untrained eye it can look and feel like a massage.

Electrotherapy

We have TNS machines, ultrasound, interferential, laser. All used as and when needed to reduce symptoms. We sell TNS machines and give a full demonstration on how to use them including pictures of where to place the electrodes and the different settings to get the most out of your machine.

We have had super success form them and it has helped patients to control their pain independently at home thus meaning they require less physiotherapy visits except for cases of extreme “flare ups” thereby helping to keep medical costs down for clients.
