Other Techniques:
Dry Needling and Orthotics
Dry needling is a form of acupuncture that uses direct musculoskeletal landmarks for its treatment rather than traditional acupuncture points. Fabulous for overuse and sporting injuries.
Our orthotics are semi-customised and heat moulded. Priced between
off the shelf and fully customised podiatry orthotics, they are often the smart option!
