Chiropractic Treatments

Soft Tissue Mobilisation

This technique involves applying gentle pressure and stretching to the muscles and other soft tissues to help release tension, restore range of motion, and improve flexibility.

Trigger Point Therapy

This technique focuses on releasing trigger points, which are tight knots within muscles that can cause pain and restrict movement. Chiropractors may apply direct pressure or use various tools to treat these points.

Joint Adjustments

Often used in conjunction with soft tissue mobilization, joint mobilization techniques aim to restore proper movement and alignment of joints. Gentle manipulation, stretching, and mobilization techniques may be used to improve joint function and reduce pain.

TENS + EMS

This therapy uses safe electrical impulses to reduce pain and stimulate muscle activity. TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) helps block pain signals, while EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) supports muscle re-education, circulation, and recovery.

Shockwave Therapy
(Radial ESWT)

This non-invasive treatment delivers acoustic waves to targeted areas to stimulate healing and reduce pain. Shockwave therapy is especially effective for chronic tendon and muscle issues, improving circulation and accelerating tissue repair.

Active Release

This technique involves a combination of movement and pressure to treat soft tissue injuries. The chiropractor actively engages the patient in specific movements while applying pressure to the affected area to promote healing and restore function.

Dynamic Cupping

​This technique combines traditional cupping with gentle movement of the cups to increase circulation, release muscle tension, and improve mobility. The dynamic approach enhances flexibility and promotes healing in targeted areas.

Low Level Light Therapy
(Cool Laser)

This technique uses gentle, low-intensity laser light to stimulate cellular healing, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue repair. It is non-invasive and can be used to support recovery from muscle strains, joint pain, and soft tissue injuries.

Percussive Massage
(V-actor & Theragun)

This method uses rapid, rhythmic pressure to relax tight muscles, increase blood flow, and enhance recovery. Percussive therapy is effective for reducing soreness, improving mobility, and supporting overall muscle health.
