There are few things worse than living with constant pain. Whether it's an injury  sustained during sport, or a long-term issue that you just can't shake, we'll work with you and help you to take control of your pain with a variety of soft tissue techniques.

Understanding pain is the first step towards changing the painful experience. Knowing how the brain and nervous system operate allows us to create ways to target the mechanisms that underpin pain. Pain is an output from the brain, not muscle, tendons, ligaments or any other tissue. Appreciation of the plastic ability of the nervous system provides us with the opportunity to ‘re-wire’ it and make things feel better.

During a session we’ll assess your structure and movement, and identify the activities that contribute to your injury.  That helps us to give you some simple post-treatment homework that will counteract the repetitive actions that are causing you damage on a daily basis. We’ll also  explain the mechanics of your body, how muscle and its associated soft tissue has altered your structure and generated dysfunction and pain.

I had an on-going shoulder injury where, during the heavy phase of competition,  I couldn't lift my shoulder without pain. Rob not only found the source of the problem, he has also been very active in working out a training program - not just to eliminate the injury, but also increase the power and speed I am able to generate.

Our techniques are applied with little or no discomfort. Crucially, we'll show you how to move during the treatment to re-wire the body's awareness and ensure the maximum release. This is focused, hands-on, expert remedial manual therapy, where you are in control the whole time.  

We'll also recommend a regime of self-treatment, for instance stretching or movement techniques. This is thoroughly demonstrated and we’ll either give you pictures to take home, can email specific sources of information available on the ’net, or if an article exists on our website we’ll refer you to that.
