Specific core stability or strengthening exercises may be inluded in your treatment regime to accelerate your rehabilitation and return to sport or work. These are provided on an individual basis, and address specific muscle imbalances.
Strengthening is often an important part of regaining the full function of muscles that are "switched off" or not working to their full potential in response to pain or dysfunction, or rehabilitating tendon injuries. In most cases when performing your exercises, the most you will experience should be a mild discomfort or be performed in a painfree range of movement.
Your physiotherapist will guide you with exercises that are the most appropriate ones for you.

This effective treatment uses specific acupuncture techniques to treat movement restrictions, following an assessment of your movement, biomechanics and palpation of your muscle tissue. Treatment is aimed at immediately improving your range of movement.
A single use, disposable acupuncture needle is used, and treatment is generally as comfortable, or more comfortable than deep tissue massage or joint mobilisation, often with even greater benefits. There is also a remarkable absence of the “post treatment tissue soreness” sometimes experienced following other manual therapy.
Prior to receiving treatment, your therapist will ask you questions regarding your physical and medical history to ensure dry needling is a safe option for you.

During your initial assessment you will be asked specific questions that will assist your Physiotherapist with diagnosis and guide treatment. A comprehensive analysis of your movement and function will be performed, combined with accurate muscle and joint palpation and tests. Your physiotherapist will then discuss with you various treatment options, and an expected injury recovery period. Treatment will assist you to improve your range of movement, and often involves performing a home exercise program to maintain or further improve your movement and muscle recruitment. This initial appointment may range between 30 and 45 minutes.
If further appointments are required, your Physiotherapist will work with you to achieve your goals - whether it is to improve your sporting performance, return to work, or achieve a pain free state. A thorough assessment is performed at each visit to review your progress and guide the progression of your treatment and exercises, and may be for up to 30 minutes.
The most appropriate treatment for your particular problem will be utilised, and may incorporate a combination of:
- Dry Needling
- Joint mobilisation or manipulation
- Deep Connective Tissue Massage
- Nerve glides
- Taping
- Core Stability Training
- Specific Strengthening
- Muscle stretching
- McKenzie Exercises (specific exercises for the back or neck)
