What we commonly treat for people from Drummoyne
Lower back pain
Common triggers include desk-bound days, lifting and heavy training weeks. Treatment is matched to your findings and may include spinal adjustment or mobilisation, soft tissue therapy, dry needling, and a graded exercise program. We give you clear guidance on what to keep doing, so you are not left resting and losing fitness.
Shoulder pain
Common triggers include overhead sport, swimming and gym training. Treatment may include soft tissue therapy, joint mobilisation, dry needling and shockwave for tendon problems, plus progressive strengthening of the rotator cuff and shoulder blade muscles. Rest from the aggravating movement helps early, but we aim to restore load as quickly as is safe.
