Dry needling, which is used in physiotherapy sessions, is a specialised form of acupuncture where solid filament needles are inserted into the skin and muscle directly at a myofascial trigger point.
Sports Injury Management is the process an athlete or the sporting population needs to take in order to recover from an acute injury and return to peak sports performance without damaging or compromising their body. When a person suffers from a sporting injury, they will typically have inflammation, swelling, joint restriction, protective tone, pain and dysfunction. Returning to sport can be a long and daunting process.
It is our mission at West Coast Physio to help an athlete become free from pain and injury as well as ensure you do not reinjure or cause further harm to your body. Under Sports Injury Management, our certified therapists use physiotherapy modalities, exercise therapy, education, massage therapy, relative rest and a graded exposure plan to ensure an athlete can return to their sport with fearless and resilient movement.
