Pain Management Therapy to help resolve:

  • Muscular Tension from stress or bad posture

  • Low Back Pain

  • Joint Pain

  • Tension Headaches

  • Sports Injuries

  • Mobility Issues

  • Neck Pain

Our first goal is always to help reduce someone’s level of discomfort while we determine the source of their pain. Once the source is discovered an appropriate and comprehensive treatment plan can be created using safe and effective pain treatments to provide relief.

We take the whole person into account and create a treatment plan using a diverse range of therapies including:

  • Massage Therapy is a wonderful tool not only to treat pain but also to prevent pain from worsening or from becoming in the first place. Massage therapy reduces inflammation and promotes mitochondrial bio-genesis in the skeletal muscle. By reducing cortisol levels and altered EEG patterns, it has been shown to reverse effects of chronic stress, reduce anxiety and stimulate the release of 'happy' chemicals in the brain such as dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin and endorphins.

  • Exercise Therapy can be highly effective for all types of chronic musculoskeletal and neuropathic pain. Therapeutic exercise will help you maintain the ability to move and function physically, rather than becoming disabled by your chronic pain. Physical therapy not only tackles the physical side of the inflammation, stiffness, and soreness but it also helps the body heal itself by encouraging the production of the body's natural pain-relieving chemicals. A fully customised exercise programme will correct muscle imbalances, correct improper posture, facilitate increased blood flow and encourage healing.

  • PEMF Therapy -Pulsed PEMF therapy sends magnetic energy into the body. These energy waves work with your body’s natural magnetic field to improve healing. The magnetic fields help you to increase electrolytes and ions. This naturally influences electrical changes on a cellular level and influences cellular metabolism. It works with your body’s own recovery processes to help relieve chronic pain. Best of all, it’s entirely safe.

Ultimately, the human body requires electricity to sign signals throughout the body and to your brain. PEMF therapy effectively can realign the electricity in your cells. When a cell is stimulated, it allows positive charges to enter a cell in an open ION channel. The inside of this cell becomes positively charged, which will trigger other electrical currents, turning into pulses. This can positively influence movement, healing, and sending of signals. Any disruption in electrical currents can lead to dysfunction or illness. Pulsed PEMF therapy helps restore this disruption in electrical current to the normal state, which promotes healing.

  • Nutritional Therapy Ultimately, at the root of any type of pain, you will find inflammation. Therefore, in all instances, nutrients, herbs and specific spices that lower inflammation will be indicated. Nutritional therapy will support cartilage, ligament, bone and other connective tissue re-building process and prevent further damage. Eliminating certain food sensitivities and healing the gut will not only lower inflammation but often help with more complex issues such as Rheumatoid Arthritis and other immune problems.

  • K laser Therapy is the use of specific wavelengths of light (red and near-infrared) to create therapeutic effects. Laser Therapy has been widely used in Europe by physical therapists as far back as the 1970’s with great success. K Laser Therapy can bio-stimulate tissue repair and growth. The K Laser accelerates wound healing and decreases inflammation, pain, and scar tissue formation. In the management of chronic pain K Laser Therapy can provide dramatic results and virtually free of side effects.

  • Infrared Lamp Therapy is a natural, non-invasive, scientifically proven and side-effect free pain relief method. Thanks to the deep penetration of infrared rays (up to 2 inches into body tissue) deep heating occurs in your muscles and internal organs, increasing the blood flow to the damaged tissue thus encouraging healing. This flow of blood helps your body release toxins, inflammation, and other waste. It brings vital nutrients needed for tissue repair.

  • Ultrasound Therapy uses a transmission of sound waves. The sound waves cause microscopic vibrations in the deep tissue molecules, increasing heat and friction. The warming effect encourages healing in the soft tissues by increasing the metabolism at the level of the tissue cells. This helps to decrease the inflammatory response, reducing tissue swelling and thus decreasing pain.

  • Supplemental Therapy NSAIDs are commonly used to help relieve pain caused by inflammation. Some of the risks of long term use of these drugs include stomach ulceration, high blood pressure, fluid retention, kidney or heart problems, negative effect on the diversity of gut microbes and gut permeability . The chance of these adverse effects increases with over 30 days use. In place of these, we recommend natural anti-inflammatory supplements that show to be a very effective and safe alternative to NSAIDs for a variety of chronic inflammatory conditions.
