SOFT TISSUE THERAPY

Soft tissue therapy: Using our hands, muscles are assessed and treated where necessary to allow better movement. IASTM: Popular amongst athletes, 

Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation (IASTM) uses a stainless steel instrument over muscles and tendons. The instrument may help break down adhesions in the scar tissue. It may be of some benefit for tendonitis, lymphatic drainage, tennis elbow, scar breakdown, circulation, chronic muscular conditions such as rotator cuff injuries. 

ART: Active Release Technique (ART) involves using soft tissue pressure to muscular adhesions while stretching and moving the muscle at the same time. 

Neuro- myofascial Release: This technique involves assess and treating the myofascial surrounding various nerves within the body. This may provide relief for conditions such as sciatica, carpal tunnel and other trapped nerves.

Kinesiotaping: A specialised tape is applied to inhibit or activate muscles. This may promote healing and lymphatic drainage. Popular amongst athletes, this tape may provide support without restricting movement.
