Advanced Manual Therapy at home

Hands-on techniques for stubborn pain and tight tissue.

Techniques used when ordinary physiotherapy has stalled — dry needling, cupping, myofascial release, deep tissue work and IASTM. Usually added to a treatment plan rather than used on their own, and always after an assessment.

What this treats

  • Dry Needling
  • Cupping Therapy
  • Myofascial Release
  • Deep Tissue Therapy
  • IASTM

What a visit looks like

  1. AssessmentThe first visit is spent understanding the problem — what hurts, what you cannot do yet, and what you need to get back to.
  2. TreatmentHands-on work and guided exercise, in your own rooms, using what you already have rather than clinic equipment you do not.
  3. Between visitsYou are left with something to practise. Most of the progress happens here, not during the hour someone is with you.

Advanced Manual Therapy — questions we get

Is dry needling the same as acupuncture?

No. The needles look similar, but dry needling targets a tight band in a muscle identified during a physiotherapy assessment, and the reasoning behind it is musculoskeletal rather than traditional.

Will it hurt?

There is usually a brief cramping sensation, and some soreness for a day afterwards, similar to after a hard workout.
