Treatments

At PEAK Physiotherapy we use up-to-date and evidence based treatments so that you will receive the most appropriate and effective treatment for your condition. Your treatment may include:

Manual Therapy

Manual therapy is a term that encompasses a variety of physiotherapeutic treatment techniques. Mobilisations are applied to joints to reduce stiffness and relieve pain, manipulations may also be applied to joints to restore normal movement, soft tissue manipulation and massage are effective at reducing scar tissue, stretching tight structures, relieving spasm and aiding the healing process.

Exercise Therapy

Personalised exercise programs are devised with you to complete at home or in our gym facilities. You will be provided with exercises specific for your condition that address weak muscles, stiff joints, muscle imbalances and poor posture as appropriate.

Acupuncture

Primarily used for pain relief western acupuncture involves dry needling of tight and dysfunctional tissues. Trigger point release and intra-muscular stimulation will decrease pain, release tight tissues and promote healing. This technique can be used very effectively alone or in conjunction with other physiotherapy techniques.

Pilates

Clinical Pilates used by physiotherapists is a modification of the traditional Pilates exercises developed by Joseph Pilates over 70 years ago. The emphasis is control of the deep stabilising muscles of the trunk, which support the spine. By improving these muscles improved core stability can reduce postural pain and enhance efficiency of movement.

Electrotherapy

A variety of modalities including ultrasound, interferential and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) machines are available. As an adjunct to other treatment techniques these modalities can help to relieve pain and accelerate the healing process.

Sports Rehabilitation

Early and correct treatment of sports injuries is vital for the most effective recovery. Sports injuries are treated to ensure optimal recovery and return to sport as soon as possible. The sports person will be provided with a sport specific rehabilitation programme and given advice to prevent re-injury.

Ergonomic and postural advice

Ergonomic advice is invaluable at work and home to help prevent pain caused by repetitive movements, poor seating, desk position and computer alignment. You will also be advised on maintaining a good posture and shown how to do this to prevent aches and pains caused by poor posture.
