Around 90% of our patients have a lower back, cervical pain or a ongoing headache complaint - which is primarily caused by a "forward head" posture through excessive poor posture. Forward head posture can then cause a common ailment referred to as Anterior Pelvic Tilt (ATP). The key to managing this is bi-lateral strengthening and conditioning of key tissues that stabalise

We assess your pelvic position and provide effective treatment and ongoing management for this common condition

Are you taking over the counter or prescription pain relief on a regular basis, to get through the day? Are you stressed? Suffering mental illness?

Hypertonic tissues cause the activation of trigger points, and are commonly located in various parts of the middle, upper back, the neck and other hyper-tonic areas. Pain can often be referred. This will only cause more pain and reduced range of movement over time.
