DRY NEEDLING & MOBILISATION THERAPY

Our SOLE THERAPY practitoinertuses Dry Needling to release your tight muscles & tendons with the goal of permanently reducing muscle pain & dysfunction. Dry Needling is an evidence based therapy where a thin acupuncture needle is inserted into an area of muscle that has developed a trigger point. Trigger points are hypersensitive area of muscles with a palpable nodule or ‘knot’. Trigger points can cause significant pain & movement problems. The aim of Dry Needling is to relax & release the trigger point, reducing associated pain. Dry Needling can also assist in reducing swelling & promote healing.  We also use Mobilisation to help stiff ankles & feet. It can relieve pain from bunions.

Our SOLE THERAPY practitioners use Foot Mobilisation techniques (FMT) as a manual therapy specifically developed to improve your foot & ankle function by targeting stiff, mal-aligned or dysfunctional joints to improve the function of your lower limb. This form of manual therapy involves finding & treating the cause of your pain rather than just the symptoms, by individually assessing each bone & joint in the foot & ankle & using your own body’s natural repair process to reduce pain & improve foot posture. 

Exercise Therapy & rehabilitation are fundamental to reducing pain & improving function with patients who have musculoskeletal pain. Our SOLE THERAPY experts can  tailor individual exercises to suit your needs.
