NDPE Addresses Patient Pain, Chronic Disease and Rehabilitation

Northern Districts Physiotherapy Eastwood services encompass multiple therapies to alleviate pain, treat conditions associated with chronic disease, restore functionality, and rehabilitate injuries. The practice takes a hands-on approach and each treatment and management plan is customized to accommodate the individual. The clinic treats children and adults.

Two of the mainstays of physiotherapy are therapeutic massage and dry needling. The therapies can be used singly or in combination with others to treat multiple conditions and accelerate healing. Both methods increase blood flow, remove toxins and assist the body’s own healing abilities. Pain is relieved and the techniques are especially beneficial when scar tissue is present. The therapies enhance sports performance and are regularly used by professional athletes.Experienced sports physio in west ryde
