Which Treatment can help a patient recover faster from Injury?

The truth is a therapist can not say that their therapy will benefit every patient they see, since patients respond differently to an injury. Where a sport massage and physiotherapy use Certain techniques as NMT ( Nuero muscular technique) and certain trigger points. This can be very beneficial to a patient who finds it too painful for a deep tissue massage & adjustment, NMT can allow certain muscles too drop and ease muscle spasms.

Physiotherapy is a wonderful therapy to help stimulate certain muscle groups that may have been used when resting post injury or surgery. The application of para-metrics (resistant band work) using dynamic tension to build these injured muscle groups back to optimum functionality.  Our physiotherapists use Acupuncture as well as other techniques that can stimulate muscle groups and quicken healing time.
