Services
Myotherapy
Myotherapy combines deep tissue massage, dry needling, and corrective exercises to treat musculoskeletal conditions. This evidence-based approach addresses sporting injuries, posture-related pain, and chronic joint issues through comprehensive assessment and tailored treatment plans. Sessions incorporate advanced technologies like photobiomodulation to accelerate tissue repair and reduce inflammation.
Remedial Massage
Targeted remedial massage uses myofascial release and trigger point therapy to alleviate muscle tension and stress-related conditions. Effective for treating headaches, migraines, and musculoskeletal pain, this therapy improves circulation and mobility while promoting relaxation and stress reduction through deep tissue manipulation techniques.
Lymphatic Drainage
Gentle manual lymphatic drainage stimulates immune function and reduces fluid retention. This therapy benefits post-surgical recovery, lymphoedema management, and chronic fatigue through rhythmic techniques that enhance natural detoxification processes and support the body's healing mechanisms.
Physiotherapy
Specialised physiotherapy addresses back pain, sports injuries, and pregnancy-related conditions using evidence-based techniques. Treatment plans include joint mobilisation, muscle retraining, and postural correction to restore function and prevent future injuries through comprehensive rehabilitation programs.
LED Therapy
Low-level laser therapy accelerates cellular repair and reduces inflammation through targeted light energy. This non-invasive treatment effectively manages acute injuries, arthritis pain, and muscular strains by stimulating tissue regeneration and improving oxygen delivery to damaged cells during 10-30 minute sessions.

Have been a regular client for close to 7 years and I cannot recommend Healthwise, more highly! If I can't get in to see my regular therapist for a last minute appointment, I always know there are so many other extremely capable and friendly staff available.

Thanks to the team at Healthwise who continue to provide an amazing service through this really challenging period. I am 30 weeks pregnant and coronavirus or not, was in great need of some remedial massage for my very sore hips. I had absolutely no concern going in for a massage as I knew I was in the best, professional care in an extremely hygienic environment. The team are taking the highest level of caution to ensure sanitation and safety for their clients. Thanks Healthwise team!
