Postural and functional assessment
If you are suffering pain and discomfort in any part of your body, it may well not be the root cause of your issue. Postural assessment will determine how your body may have compensated for an injury or impairment, allowing your therapist to target specific muscle groups to remedy or relieve the pain.

Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which your therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. People get it for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage.
Kinesiolgy Taping
If you’ve watched a volleyball game or competitive bicycle race, you’ve probably seen it: strips of colorful tape splayed in patterns across shoulders, knees, backs, and abs. That’s kinesiology tape: a therapeutic tape that’s applied strategically to the body to provide support, lessen pain, reduce swelling, and improve performance.
