Initial consultations are typically 30–60 minutes to allow a thorough assessment and hands-on treatment. Standard follow-up sessions are 30–60 minutes. We offer longer remedial massage and myotherapy sessions as needed for deeper relief.

Your first visit includes a detailed history and movement assessment, followed by hands-on treatment (such as manual therapy, dry needling, or massage), a clear diagnosis, and a personalised treatment plan. We’ll also give you practical advice and exercises to start at home.
