PHYSIOTHERAPY

Physiotherapy is an area of specialty that applies to treat muscles, tendons, and ligaments that support the skeletal system. Our treatments are aimed to support strengthening muscles, stretching muscles, and improving muscular function so that you get to achieve or recover from injuries with improved movement and coordination without pain and restrictions.

KNEE ARTHRITIS BRACING

If you are experiencing knee pain when walking, chances are that it could be osteoarthritis. About 90% of cases that we treat concerns osteoarthritis on the inside of the knee, whereby there is a wearing down of the cartilage and eventually resorting to bone on bone contact that causes a lot of pain. 

So, provide a type of knee bracing that is known as unloaded bracing as it provides a pivot point where it un-pinches the joint and provides more freedom of movement. With the complement of shockwave therapy, patients experience less pain because the brace is passively taking away the loading effect of the joint.

SHOCKWAVE THERAPY

The shockwaves affect your bone and soft tissue. This treatment is very good at treating problems that are caused by the tendon. Where the tendon attaches to the bone, that is the area that people commonly have pain. So in your knee, it might be around your kneecap where the patella tendon attaches. In your heel, it is where the plantar fascia connects. At the back of the foot, it is where the Achilles tendon attaches. Because of the stress that is coming from the muscle through the tendon and onto the bone, this is the area that we see a high amount of injuries among patients. By providing treatment to the area of concern with a high powered sound wave, we can accelerate the healing process and reduce inflammation.

JAPANESE ACUPUNCTURE

Japanese Acupuncture is gentle in touch and effective, using many techniques other than needling, including Fukaya moxibustion, Ion pumping and Ontake warm bamboo.

One of the key aims of treatment is to balance the circulation of energy (qi) by releasing the energy in areas of the body that feel too tight and strengthening areas that feel loose or weak.

CHIROPRACTIC & OSTEOPATHY

Chiropractic is a non-drug conservative approach to treating spine and joint problems such as backaches, neck and shoulder pain. We focus on the alignment of your spine and the impact it has on your nervous system. By correcting your spinal alignment, you optimise the way your body functions because your spine is like a highway that connects all your bodily functions with signals from your brain through the nervous system. With Chiropractic care, you get to treat the underlying cause of the pain rather than the symptomatic cause of the pain to give you the active lifestyle that you need to perform your daily activities.

Osteopath is similar to a chiropractor in the way that they use some form of manipulation for the joints. The training of an osteopath is different in a sense whereby their philosophy is more around the soft tissue and the organs in relation to how these parts interface with the joints of your body. Also, we help you to improve the blood circulation around the joints in different regions of your body to stimulate natural healing.

3D FEET CUSTOMISED INSOLES

It is essential to optimise the arch of your feet because it is the foundation of your body and your movement. A lot of people in Asia tend to have flat feet. It causes problems such as foot and joint pain. 

By embracing 3D scanning and 3D printing technology,  our software can get the exact topography of the arch for your feet. We can then custom-build a fitting (insoles or sandals) that will support your natural arch from the bottom up. It looks very discreet, but it serves a very beneficial function to improve your movement.

DTS DECOMPRESSION THERAPY

DTS provides an environment for the disc to heal better. A slipped disc can cause the restriction of the blood supply into your spine, so your body is only subject to the limited supply of hydration at night into the affected disc to bring in all the nutrients that it needs to heal the area. That is why our backs take a long time to recover.

By mimicking the natural actions of the disc using a decompression machine, we can create a negative pressure which speeds up the delivery of nutrients into the disc and it subsequently reduces the symptoms (pain) while accelerating the healing process around the area of concern.
