Acupuncture
Acupuncture combines traditional Chinese medicine with modern physiotherapy to treat musculoskeletal pain and inflammation. By stimulating specific points, it triggers the body's natural healing processes through endorphin release and improved circulation. Our practitioners use disposable, pre-sterilised needles following strict hygiene protocols, with sessions typically lasting 20 minutes. This evidence-based approach effectively addresses chronic pain when conventional treatments prove insufficient.
Manual Therapy
Manual therapy employs skilled joint mobilisation and soft tissue techniques to improve mobility in restricted areas. Our physiotherapists use targeted manipulations to reduce pain, eliminate inflammation, and enhance tissue repair. This hands-on approach addresses musculoskeletal imbalances through kneading, stretching, and controlled movements, promoting natural healing while improving stability and functional movement patterns for long-term recovery.
Shockwave Therapy
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) delivers high-energy sound waves to treat chronic musculoskeletal conditions. Using the EMS Swiss DolorClast system, we target affected tissues to stimulate healing responses through increased blood circulation and metabolic activity. Each 30-minute session includes 2000-3000 shockwaves, typically requiring 3-6 weekly treatments for optimal results in treating conditions like plantar fasciitis and tennis elbow.
Steroid Injection
Steroid injections provide targeted relief for inflammatory conditions like arthritis and tendinitis. Administered by experienced physiotherapists, these minimally invasive treatments deliver corticosteroids directly to affected areas, reducing inflammation and alleviating pain for several months. The 10-15 minute procedure offers a non-surgical alternative for managing chronic joint and soft tissue conditions when conservative treatments prove insufficient.
IDD Therapy
IDD Therapy uses computer-controlled traction to treat disc-related spinal conditions. This non-surgical approach targets herniated discs and sciatica by creating negative pressure within discs to promote rehydration and nutrient flow. Each 30-45 minute session employs precise oscillating forces to decompress specific spinal segments, offering an alternative to surgery for chronic neck and back pain sufferers.

Report
I cannot recommend Jay enough. I first came to visit Jay in July after suffering from very painful plantar fasciitis for 4+ months. From my very first appointment Jay gave me excellent advice and I then started a course of 3 shockwave treatments and daily at home exercises. When I first visited Jay I couldnt put my feet down onto the floor in the morning without wincing from pain, now I am back to walking around pain free. Thank you for everything Jay!

Jay recently treated me for a lower back problem. He undertook a thorough examination, administered acupuncture as well deep tissue massage and prescribing a series of exercises. This has worked very well and I was more than happy with the results of just two visits. I can highly recommend Back to Fitness and will use them in the future if needed.
