PhysioCall.com.au Treatments
Our Gladstone physiotherapy team provides assessments, hands-on care, exercise programs and advice tailored to your needs. Treatment choices depend on your condition, goals and clinical assessment. We will discuss options and review your progress; results vary between people.
Hands-on physiotherapy may include massage, soft tissue techniques and joint mobilisation. Your physiotherapist selects suitable techniques after assessment and combines them with exercises and advice to support your treatment goals.
Gua Sha uses a smooth-edged tool to apply repeated strokes to the skin and can leave temporary red marks. Research on pain relief is limited. Your physiotherapist will discuss whether it is suitable for you.
Cupping applies suction to the skin using cups and can leave temporary marks. Evidence for pain relief is limited, and it is not suitable for everyone. Your physiotherapist will discuss potential benefits and risks before treatment.
Joint manipulation uses a brief, controlled thrust and differs from slower joint mobilisation. Your physiotherapist assesses whether it is appropriate and discusses expected benefits, risks and alternatives before treatment.
Dry needling uses fine needles to target muscles and soft tissues. Your physiotherapist will explain the proposed technique, how it relates to acupuncture, and its potential benefits, risks and alternatives before treatment.
Deep tissue massage uses hands-on pressure on muscles and other soft tissues. The technique and pressure should suit your assessment and comfort. Ask your physiotherapist how massage fits into your treatment plan.
Shockwave is a treatment option for some tendon conditions. Evidence of benefit varies by condition, and improvement is not guaranteed. Your physiotherapist will assess suitability and discuss options, risks and alternatives.
Strapping and taping is a technique commonly used in sports physical therapy to support and stabilize muscles, joints, and ligaments.
