Manual Therapy

Maitland Approach

Geoffrey Maitland, a brilliant South Australian Physiotherapist, developed a system of assessment and treatment of patients. His approach to treatment is precise and gentle. It also features progressive, mobilisation techniques with detailed assessment before and after treatment. Caulfield Physiotherapy uses the Maitland Approach.

Massage

Caulfield Physiotherapists use soft tissue massage to address an abnormal increase in the tone of your muscles. Massage lengthens tight tissues and can also be used to decrease swelling in the tissues.

Physiotherapy Facilitated Stretching (Neuromuscular Facilitation)

Muscles that are shortened can restrict your mobility. Neuromuscular Facilitation is an effective technique to reduce tightness of muscles in your body and can help to reduce the risk of a muscle strain.

Co-ordinated Therapies & Treatments

The Physiotherapists at Caulfield Physiotherapy use a combination of the above treatments to decrease your pain and improve your function.
