Myofascial Cupping
Myofascial cupping can help to reduce pain, promote healing and improve movement of the musculoskeletal system.
Myofascial cupping (RockPods) are silicone suction cups which are applied to the skin. The myofascial cups work by decompressing the layers under the skin and by providing sensory input into the brain from the skin. This decompression and sensory input help to promote healing, to reduce pain and to improve movement of the musculoskeletal system.
The myofascial cups are often used with movement to get the best therapeutic effect. Myofascial cups can be used as part of any treatment to get a positive result.
If you are interested in myofascial cups forming part of your treatment please let me know when booking.
Kinesiology Taping
Kinesiology taping (RockTape) can help to reduce symptoms, to control swelling or bruising, to enhance awareness of postural dysfunction and to enhance movement of the musculoskeletal system.
Kinesiology tape works by decompressing the skin and the underlying layers of connective tissue; and by changing the sensory input to the brain from the skin. This combination of decompression and sensory stimulation can help to reduce pain and to improvement movement.
Kinesiology tape can be used on anybody with pain and dysfunction, its not just for athletes! Tape can be applied as part of any treatment for a beneficial outcome.
If you are taking part in a sporting event and want kinesiology tape applied beforehand please contact me to book a short appointment.
