Musculoskeletal & Sports Physiotherapy
Musculoskeletal and sports physiotherapy focuses on the assessment, diagnosis and treatment as well as prevention of sports injuries and conditions affecting muscles, bones, joints, ligaments and tendons.
To provide the best service possible, we offer extended consultation times to allow for an in-depth assessment, accurate diagnosis and thorough understanding of your underlying problem. Our musculoskeletal and sports physiotherapists assess your movement patterns, strength, flexibility and pain levels to aid in identifying any injuries or underlying causes. During your physiotherapy consult, we will constantly test and re-test to find what sorts of treatment you respond best to.
A comprehensive assessment is imperative to provide an optimal treatment plan and the ultimate resolution of your concerns.
Below are a few of the techniques and tools you may expect to be used during your physiotherapy treatment:
-
Real-Time Ultrasound
-
Acupuncture & Dry Needling
-
Cupping
-
Kinesio-taping
-
Muscle Energy Techniques (METs)
-
The Mulligan Concept
-
Massage & Myofascial Release
-
Joint Mobilisations
Once we find what works for you, we will teach you the best way to replicate this yourself at home so you can continue to improve and recover as quickly as possible.
