Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation and strengthening is a huge part of the recovery process. We offer this in two ways:
- Personalised Rehab Program: a detailed strength assessment is completed and an individual program is constructed and followed to provide results.
- One-on-one Rehabilitation: after completing a strength assessment you spend 30 minutes with our physiotherapists completing a rehab “workout” in the gym.
Dry Needling
Dry Needling is different to Acupuncture. When using Dry Needling, the practitioner inserts short, thin, stainless steel needles into trigger points/knots in the affected muscle or soft tissue. Overall, what makes needling effective is that it basically encourages your body to fix the injury and reduce the pain by naturally healing itself.
There are many benefits to Dry Needling, these include:
- relaxes tight muscles
- restores muscle length
- improves blood flow.


Remedial Massage
Remedial massage is a complementary therapy that focuses on assessing and treating muscles. It can be effective in treating conditions that affect the muscles, bones, fascia, ligaments and tendons.
Our remedial massage therapist works specifically on your affected area to achieve a significant change. The change includes; reduced pain, improved mobility, less tension, or a combination. Remedial massage can either be deep or shallow, gentle or strong, depending on the problem to be addressed.
Cupping
The objective of cupping is to; draw more blood to the surface of the skin to improve circulation, loosen tight/painful muscles, release scar tissue and improve lymphatic drainage.
The cups are placed onto the skin by creating a partial vacuum inside the cup. There are two methods used to do this:
- Traditional cupping: an open-bottomed glass globe will be lit up briefly. This heats the air inside the globe rapidly, and the open end of the cup is then placed on the subject’s body. This causes the tissue to be pulled up into the cup.
- Suction cupping: this uses plastic cups that allow the therapist to remove the air by means of a pump mechanism. This gives more control over how much tissue is drawn up into the cup.
Oil is massaged onto the skin beforehand so that the cup can be moved over the affected area easily. Oil also helps to create a better seal for the cup. The cup is usually left on between five and ten minutes and then removed.
There will be a distinctive red circle left on the skin where the tissue has been pulled up. This will fade over the course of several days.
