Hands-on techniques that target specific muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia to reduce pain and restore movement.

What it is

Soft tissue manipulation covers a group of hands-on techniques, including Neuromuscular activation, trigger point release, muscle energy techniques, soft tissue and myofascial release and is used on muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia.

Rather than working a whole area, it targets the specific tissues that are tight, tender or not moving well, and is often combined with joint treatment.

What to expect

1

Find the tissue at fault

Movement and hands-on testing to find exactly what's restricted.

2

Targeted release

Specific techniques will be chosen for different tissues and muscles and how irritable they are.

3

Keep it moving

Exercises and management strategies to hold on to the change between sessions.

What it can help with

Not sure what's causing your pain? You don't need to pick a treatment. I'll assess you and recommend what suits your injury.

Questions people ask

Can I just book this treatment?

You can, but most people leave it to me. Every session is 45 minutes and the same price, and I'll combine whichever methods your injury needs. You can always say no to any technique.

Do I need a referral from my GP?

No. You can book directly. If I think you need a scan or a GP's opinion, I'll tell you.

What should I wear?

No specific clothing is required

Not sure it's right for you?

Tell me roughly what's going on and I'll recommend the right treatment. I'll get back to you as soon as I'm out of clinic.
