The cushions between your spinal bones
Our treatment can support the recovery from a disc injury by releasing tissue in the surrounds, the muscles and joints. By reducing the compressive forces this way, discs have a natural ability to settle over time. Our added use of ultrasound may assist in reducing the inflammation of the disc.
Tendons attach muscle to bone.
Tendons are the ones that can suffer repetitive strain injuries (RSI) or overuse injury. Our team know what is required to rehabilitate them so they stop giving you grief. Ultrasound can help reduce the inflammation, treating surrounding structures to reduce strain and then the focus on the tendon recovery and re-strengthening.
The ropes holding the bones together.
A ligament injury occurs when a joint is stretched beyond its physical limits. It hurts instantly, and is not something you should ignore. Ligaments should receive direct attention and work to help re-balance the joint so that it does not become a future problem.

Physiotherapy or Osteopathy?
Canterbury physiotherapy is another choice for treatment of aches and pains, however Boroondara Osteopathy has been a provider to the local Canterbury community for many years. Our osteopaths have experience in treating conditions that many Canterbury residents would seek treatment for at a Canterbury physiotherapy clinic. Many physiotherapist do not provide actual physical treatment, and instead rely on machines and exercise to accomplish their goals.
