Assessment & Treatments

Manual therapy

We use a combination of joint and fascia mobilisations of the lower limb as a part of a treatment package. Colin has trained in foot joint mobilisations and lower limb fascia mobilisations. This treatment is very important when we are looking at both pain / symptom relief and also to help with changing function.

Foot Joint Mobilisation

Our feet can become stiff due to activity and age. Increasing range of movement in the many foot joints is helpful at many levels. Feet have many bones and joints with muscles, ligaments and fascia connecting everything together. Our feet flatten during function and they can get ‘stuck’. Mobilisations of these joints can help with pain, achy feelings but also help to improve the way you walk.

Fascia Mobilisation

Fascia is the connective tissue that runs throughout all of our body. It covers every structure and has it’s own nervous system. It is seen as the communicating network throughout our body. It has been described a being like a net and if there is tension at one point there is a knock on effect along lines of function or structure. Areas of fascia can become stuck together and not move and glide when we move. This could be due to an injury, surgery or just holding a joint in a certain position. Fascia has it’s own lubrication system – Hyaluronic acid – but if it doesn’t move then this is not present. The tissue becomes ‘dense’ and then when we try to move it nerves are fired and we feel tension, stiffness and pain. Treatment involves finding these points and working directly onto them. This treatment helps with pain relief and also restoring function.
