Treatment

Neuromuscular Physical Therapy

Neuromuscular Physical Therapy uses a variety of manual techniques to reduce muscle and soft-tissue pain and discomfort, and to improve muscular efficiency — whatever sport or activity caused the problem.

Commonly treats

  • Muscle strains
  • Shin splints
  • Nerve entrapment
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Trigger points
  • Hip and back pain

Benefits

  • Reduced pain and discomfort
  • Increased range of movement
  • Reduced stiffness in joints and muscles
  • Reduced muscle tension and inflammation
  • Deactivation of trigger points

Maintenance

Orthopaedic Sports Massage

Targeted massage geared towards injury prevention and maintenance. Ideal during heavy training blocks, before a big match or event, or as a regular session to release the tension and tightness that builds up through sport and training.

Treatment

Dry Needling

Dry needling treats myofascial trigger points — irritable points and taut bands in skeletal muscle and fascia that cause pain and discomfort brought on by acute or chronic muscle overload. It is used for Myofascial Pain Syndrome and chronic myofascial pain associated with trigger points and fascial constrictions.

What it targets

  • Myofascial trigger points
  • Taut bands in muscle and fascia
  • Pain from acute or chronic muscle overload

Benefits

  • Relieves deep tissue and muscle tension/stiffness
  • Greater range of motion and joint mobility
  • More efficient, easier movement
  • Reduces pain and scar tissue formation
  • Promotes faster healing and recovery
  • Increased circulation

Support

Kinesio Taping

Therapeutic tape applications that support you during recovery and while you keep training and competing.

Taping helps to

  • Reduce pain
  • Optimise performance
  • Prevent injury
  • Promote improved circulation and healing
  • Re-educate the neuromuscular system

Performance

Functional Movement Screen (FMS)

FMS is a ranking and grading system that documents the movement patterns key to normal function. By screening these patterns, it readily identifies functional limitations and asymmetries — the weak links that lead to injury in any sport. More on FMS →

Performance

Running Form Analysis

Running is part of almost every field and court sport, and good running form is essential for performance and injury prevention. Michael — a former NCAA Division 1 runner and qualified coach — assesses your mechanics and gives you practical changes to move more efficiently. Coaching & workshops →
