Physiotherapy Woodcroft
At Core Physio & Pilates, hands-on physiotherapy involves tailored manual methods to ease discomfort, restore mobility, and promote recovery for patients.
Skilled Hands-On Therapy
Our focus at Core Physio & Pilates is on hands-on care to help manage your pain and symptoms.
With extensive training, our physiotherapists apply a variety of techniques to assist with pain relief, flexibility, and addressing physical concerns.
Hands-On Physiotherapy Methods We Use
We develop individualised treatment plans guided by in-depth clinical assessments, ensuring that the right techniques are selected to meet your needs. Some of the key methods we apply include:
Joint Mobilisation
Smooth, repetitive movements applied to spinal and limb joints to restore their natural range of motion and alleviate discomfort.
Joint Manipulation
Controlled, localised thrusts at the joint’s end range work to release movement restrictions and improve overall mobility.
Deep Soft Tissue Massage
Varying levels of pressure, from light to deep, are applied to ease muscle tightness, enhance circulation, and support movement in the spine and limbs.
Trigger Point Therapy
This method applies deep pressure and soft tissue work to specific muscle trigger points, reducing pain and supporting mobility.
Myofascial Release
Soft tissue manipulation and controlled stretching are used in this approach to improve muscle tone, encourage blood flow, and support mobility.
Dry Needling
By placing fine needles in key muscle points, we help reduce tension, relieve pain, and support healthy muscle movement.
Therapist-Assisted Stretching
We work with clients to enhance their mobility using tailored stretching techniques, offering support to those unable to complete stretches by themselves.
Neural Mobilisation & Stretching
A focused approach aimed at optimising nerve function in the limbs by addressing mobility restrictions and associated dysfunctions.
