HOW DOES physiotherapy TREATMENT WORK?

When you first visit our Newstead physiotherapists, we will do an assessment so we can understand your pain and how it’s affecting you. After that, we do an examination to identify why your pain is happening and what our diagnosis is. Then we can start treatment to alleviate your pain.

  • Active Release Technique

    Active Release Technique (ART for short) uses muscle release techniques that involve shortening and lengthening the muscle under pressure to break up scar tissue and muscle tightness. It’s our primary method for treating problems relating to muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves.

  • Joint Manipulation

    Joint manipulation is when a chiropractor adjusts a joint with a quick thrust motion (commonly known as getting your ‘cracked’) to decrease pressure or discomfort on the joint. Whilst definitely helpful, most chiropractors only focus on this area, but at Elite HP we use multiple techniques for a more holistic approach.

  • Dry Needling

    Dry needling is used to elicit a response from your soft tissues (the muscle will often ‘twitch’) to release tension and aid healing. Think of it like a super-deep massage which can be both incredibly helpful and satisfying. Whilst it might look like acupuncture, dry needling is more focused on releasing tensions and knots.

  • Exercise Therapy

    Our goal is to help you live pain-free long term, and even though we love seeing you, we’ve truly succeeded if you don’t need to come back! In addition to hands-on therapy, our West End chiropractor will provide you with a specific rehabilitation program to better manage your sports injury and try to prevent it from returning.
