Comprehensive Approach to Pain and Injury Management
As a Musculoskeletal Therapist and Myotherapist, I specialize in addressing pain conditions and injuries with a focus on the intricate role of nerves and nerve entrapments. My approach is designed to uncover the root causes of movement problems, injuries, and chronic pain, offering targeted solutions for long-term relief and improved function.
Initial Assessment
Our journey begins with a thorough health history assessment. This crucial step allows me to:
-
Gain a deep understanding of your specific problem
-
Identify underlying precipitating factors and causes
-
Pinpoint the nerves involved and potential impairments
-
Assess damaged tissues that require healing
-
Evaluate any weakness or loss of motion contributing to the issue
​
Nerve-Centric Focus
My unique approach centres on the nervous system's impact on musculoskeletal health. By identifying nerve entrapments and impairments, we can address a key component often overlooked in traditional pain management strategies.
Diverse Treatment Modalities
I utilize a broad array of advanced therapies to effectively resolve various conditions:
-
Shockwave Therapy: Non-invasive treatment using acoustic waves to stimulate healing and reduce pain
-
Photobiomodulation: Light therapy that promotes cellular function and tissue repair
-
Neuroarticular Dry Needling: Precise needle insertion to target nerve and muscle dysfunction
-
Electrotherapy: Electrical stimulation to manage pain and promote healing
-
Vibrotactile Therapy: Use of vibration to improve sensory function and reduce pain
-
Nerve Manipulation: Gentle techniques to improve nerve mobility and function
-
Joint Mobilisation: Manual therapy to improve joint range of motion and reduce pain
-
Myofascial Cupping: Suction-based therapy to release muscle tension and improve circulation
-
Nerve Realignment Taping: Specialized taping techniques to support proper nerve function
​
Customized Treatment Plans
Based on the initial assessment, I develop personalized treatment plans that may include a combination of these advanced therapies along with:
-
Targeted manual therapy techniques

Strength and flexibility training
-
Education on pain science and self-management strategies
Holistic Healing
By addressing not just the symptoms but the underlying causes, my goal is to promote comprehensive healing and prevent future injuries. This approach often leads to:
