Pain & Performance Assessment

Select a body area and goal to get a science-backed plan. We address root causes using OMT-informed manual therapy, progressive loading, and movement-pattern retraining.

1) Select an area

Tip: tap the body or use the quick pills.

2) What’s your goal?

Recommended Approach

    • Pain relief: minimum of 5 sessions (often sooner) focused on symptom reduction and calming sensitised tissues.
    • Rehabilitation: typically 6–12 weeks of progressive loading, technique coaching, and tissue capacity building.
    • Movement patterns: we assess and retrain patterns (e.g., hip-hinge, scapular control, knee alignment) to reduce reinjury risk.
    • Body Mechanics ethos: we address root causes — not short-term fixes.

    Our Methods — Explained

    • Sports Massage — Deep/soft tissue techniques to reduce tension, improve circulation, and aid recovery.
    • Joint Mobilisation — Graded, controlled passive movements to reduce stiffness and restore range.
    • Joint Manipulation (HVLA) — A precise, quick, low-amplitude thrust to restore joint movement and influence neuromuscular control.
    • Medical Acupuncture (Dry Needling) — Fine needles into trigger points/pain-sensitive structures to reduce pain and normalise muscle tone.
    • Electro-Acupuncture — Low-level electrical stimulation via needles to enhance analgesia and circulation.
    • Dry Cupping — Negative pressure cups to promote blood flow and reduce fascial restrictions.
    • Injury Rehabilitation — Structured progression of exercise, manual therapy, and education to restore capacity and resilience.
