What is Involved in a Physiotherapy Session?

By looking at how your body moves, your physiotherapist may identify the underlying cause of your concern and tailor a treatment plan to suit your goals and lifestyle.

Your treatment plan may include:

Manual Therapy

Through gentle manipulation of muscles and joints, manual therapy may help reduce pain and work toward improving your mobility.

Exercise Programs

A personalised exercise programme designed around your needs may help you work toward greater strength and flexibility.

Shockwave Therapy

Through the application of high-energy sound waves, shockwave therapy may help stimulate tissue repair and support recovery.

Therapeutic Ultrasound

Targeted sound waves applied to the affected area may assist in supporting recovery and managing inflammation.

Dry Needling

Dry needling involves the application of fine needles to targeted muscle points, which may help release muscle tension and assist in reducing pain.

Clinical Reformer Pilates

Clinical reformer pilates may help improve movement patterns and support long-term recovery.

Pain doesn’t have to get in the way of living well.
