techniques we use
Effective treatment starts with understanding the problem. During your first consultation, we'll discuss your symptoms, examine the relevant areas and assess any movements that may be contributing to your discomfort. From there, we'll recommend an approach that suits your condition and explain how each technique may help.

Active Release Technique
Active Release Technique (ART) uses targeted hands-on pressure as muscles move through specific positions. It helps address restrictions in muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia, particularly when tightness or repetitive strain affects comfortable movement.

Joint Manipulation
Joint manipulation uses a precise, controlled movement to improve mobility and ease discomfort in restricted joints. A clicking sound may occur but isn't essential for effective treatment. Where appropriate, we combine this technique with other forms of care.

Dry Needling
Dry needling uses fine needles to target sensitive muscle areas, helping reduce tightness and discomfort. Treatment may trigger a brief muscle twitch. Although similar in appearance to acupuncture, it focuses on muscular trigger points and soft-tissue symptoms.

Exercise Therapy
Hands-on treatment is just one part of recovery. We use tailored exercises to improve strength, flexibility and movement control. Your program adapts to your ability and goals, helping you return to daily activities with greater confidence in how your body moves.
About Our Taringa Team
Our approach helps people understand their symptoms and make informed recovery decisions. We listen, assess the problem, and explain what treatment may involve.
Our team works with Taringa patients experiencing everything from recent sporting injuries to ongoing back pain, joint stiffness and movement limitations. We understand that these issues can affect people differently depending on their work, lifestyle and activity levels.
Rather than focusing only on the painful area, we look at how your muscles and joints work together to identify factors contributing to your discomfort.
With physiotherapy and chiropractic care in one clinic, we can combine suitable techniques, including soft-tissue treatment, dry needling and progressive rehabilitation.
We aim to keep your care practical, with strategies to manage symptoms, improve movement and maintain progress between visits.
