PHYSIOTHERAPY TREATMENTS
Manual therapy - practitioners use their hands to put pressure on muscle tissue and manipulate joints in an attempt to decrease back pain caused by muscle spasm, muscle tension and joint dysfunction.
Spinal Manipulation - a technique that involves applying specific pressures to the joints in the spinal column in order to reduce stiffness which is a common source of joint pain.
Joint Mobilisation - is used to increase the range of motion of an injured or stiff joint. It is also used to align the articulating surfaces of a joint and to reduce hyper mobility.
Soft Tissue Mobilisation (STM) is a technique used in manual therapy that works to complement the body's natural healing processes.
Gait (walking style) re-education is essentially learning to walk with normal pattern again. Poor gait is not only inefficient, it can also cause compensatory injuries at, above or below the injury level.

MASSAGE
Massage is an ancient therapy which dates back to Egyptian times and beyond. It is an effective yet very safe therapy which can help to ease pain, release tension and thus induce relaxation and promote a feeling of well being. By working on the soft tissues massage can stimulate the muscular and nervous systems, and improve the blood circulation and lymphatic flow.
