What to expect during treatment?

First a detailed case history is taken to establish possible diagnoses. Following this the patient will do a movement assessment and orthopaedic testing. Once a diagnosis is then formed the treatment starts and could involve:

• soft tissue massage to loosen off tight muscles

• joint articulation to reduce joint stiffness

• joint manipulation to increase joint range of motion

• acupuncture (western medical)

• cranial techniques to gently release pressures within the joints of the skull

• exercises to strengthen and stabilise joints

• stretches to improve joint mobility

• advice for posture and work station ergonomics
