This technique is connected to the Myofascial Release Technique, and does not involve the use of oil or lotion. It can relieve chronic tension, improve posture and relieve painful symptoms of chronic diseases such as Arthritis, Tendonitis, TMJ and Sciatica.

Deep Tissue Massage focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. It is designed to reach the deep sections of thick muscles, specifically the individual muscle fibres, to release tension and spasm.

Therapists use a combination of Swedish and Remedial Massage techniques, to assist with the tension and pain experienced during pregnancy. These are often caused by the extra weight and shift in the centre of gravity. Massage reduces peripheral swelling, soothes the nervous system, helps to prevent insomnia, muscle cramps and back pain. Regular massage throughout the pregnancy is also said to shorten labour time and the return to optimal fitness after birth.

Remedial Massage works to heat muscles and tendons that are damaged, impaired or tight. It holistically treats the body and traces the discomfort back to the original cause. It uses specialised techniques to support and speed up the body’s own repair mechanisms. The massage is applied directly to the skin usually with an oil lubricant. Passive stretching techniques are also employed.

Dry needling involves inserting acupuncture needles into sensitive ‘trigger points’ in muscles which relieves tension and pain and restores the normal function of the muscle. Our experienced physiotherapists will assess your injury and determine whether dry needling can assist in your recovery.

Sports Massage uses general massage and remedial massage techniques but applies them to sports specific needs. Sports Massage Therapy helps aid recovery and relieves muscle spasm through deep tissue massage, stretches, and a variety of muscular releases.

Workplace injuries are very common and may be debilitating. They can occur as a result of a fall or incident but quite often are due to overuse and the repetitive nature of one’s work.

Our physiotherapists are very experienced in not only rehabilitating your injuries but in advising you on the correct work strategies and exercises to ensure a safe and durable return to work. All our therapists are WorkCover approved. As part of managing your injuries, we will work closely with your treating doctor, insurance case managers and employers to help streamline the return to work process.

Our management may also require a worksite visit and ergonomic assessment. Our sister company – In Touch Physiotherapy – has provided onsite physiotherapy and injury services to various organisations around Australia including one of Australia’s most iconic brands Qantas. For further information about some of our workplace services visit the In Touch Physiotherapy website.

Swedish Massage is a system of long strokes, kneading, friction, tapping, percussion, vibration and shaking motions that apply pressure between muscles and bones, rubbing in the same direction as the flow of blood returning to the heart. Swedish Massage feels good, is relaxing and invigorating.
