Musculo-Skeletal Therapy
Musculo-skeletal Therapy (“MST”) is a holistic approach to assessing and treating the musculoskeletal system using various specialised soft tissue techniques, muscle energy & neuromuscular techniques, joint mobilisation, cupping, dry needling, trigger point therapy and stretching techniques.
MST is effectively used to assess, prevent and alleviate pain; enhance movement and function, rehabilitate injuries, correct postural imbalances and manage acute & chronic pain dysfunctions.
The initial Consultation involves a full body postural and biomechanical assessment used to identify areas of primary dysfunction and any associated compensatory dysfunction. A series of testing procedures involving the muscles, nerves and joints are used to identify the nature of the patient’s complaint and allow the formation of the most effective treatment plan. Treatments are tailored specifically to each patient’s needs and self care/home exercises are prescribed if necessary.
