INNOVATIVE TECHNIQUES
Mobilisation & manipulation
Corrections used to aid individuals with pain, stiffness and associated symptoms like headaches, nerve irritation and referred pain.
At Hunter Functional Health, manipulations and mobilisation (low force techniques) are always used in conjunction with exercise and soft tissue therapy.
Compression flossing
Compression floss is used to create positive subjective changes to our joints and soft tissues through compression, tension and movement.
These changes will often increase joint mobility, decrease pain, and speed up recovery. Thus, optimising performance and improving movement quality.
Dry needling
Trigger point dry needling is a treatment technique, which uses small filament type needles to release tight muscles with the goal of permanently reducing muscle pain and dysfunction. It is effective in treating acute and chronic orthopedic and musculoskeletal conditions.
Active release
Active release is a soft tissue method that focuses on relieving tissue tension via the removal of fibrosis / adhesions which can develop in tissues as a result of overload due to repetitive use and may lead to muscular weakness, numbness, aching, tingling and burning sensations.
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation (IASTM)
A new range of tools which enable clinicians to efficiently locate and treat individuals diagnosed with soft tissue dysfunction.
Kinesio Taping® Method
A rehabilitative taping technique that supports the body’s healing process by stabilising muscles and joints without limiting motion, while extending the benefits of manual therapy.
Percussive Massage
We use state-of-the-art vibration massage devices that relieve muscle stiffness and soreness, increase circulation and range of motion, and improve the overall health of the body's soft tissue.
Exercise & Training
We use contemporary training and loading strategies as soon as we safely can, this means getting you off the table and back to the activity you want to do. As well as with reducing the frequency or need for more appointments.
