Experience Movement Without Pain

Chiropractic is a healthcare discipline focused on diagnosing, treating, and preventing disorders of the musculoskeletal system—particularly those involving the spine. Chiropractors use hands-on spinal manipulation and other manual techniques to help align the body’s musculoskeletal structure, especially the spine, to enable the body to heal itself without surgery or medication.

This drug-free, non-invasive approach is commonly used to treat back pain, neck pain, joint issues, headaches, and mobility concerns. Chiropractic care often includes soft tissue therapy, exercise recommendations, and lifestyle advice to support long-term wellness and improve quality of life.

The goal of chiropractic is not just pain relief, but also restoring function, improving posture, and enhancing overall health.

Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession focused on restoring movement and function when someone is affected by injury, illness, or disability. It uses evidence-based techniques such as hands-on manual therapy, exercise prescription, dry needling, electrotherapy, and education to reduce pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall physical performance.

Physiotherapists assess each patient individually and develop tailored treatment plans to help with recovery, injury prevention, and long-term health. Whether you’re dealing with sports injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, chronic pain, or mobility issues, physiotherapy supports faster healing and improved quality of life.

The goal of physiotherapy is not just symptom relief—but helping you move better, feel stronger, and live life to the fullest.

While both massage and remedial massage aim to relax the body and relieve tension, the key difference lies in their purpose and technique.

Massage is generally a relaxation-based treatment. It uses smooth, flowing strokes to promote stress relief, improve circulation, and create an overall sense of calm. It’s ideal if you’re looking to unwind, reduce everyday tension, or improve general wellbeing.

Remedial Massage, on the other hand, is a clinical and therapeutic treatment aimed at identifying and addressing specific musculoskeletal issues such as chronic pain, injuries, tight muscles, or postural imbalances. It involves deeper pressure, targeted techniques, and often a treatment plan tailored to your condition. Remedial massage therapists are trained to assess your body and work on problem areas to support recovery and restore function.

In short:

• Massage = Relaxation & stress relief

• Remedial Massage = Treatment & rehabilitation

At  Prestons Injury Therapy, we offer both options—whether you’re looking to relax or need targeted therapy to support healing.

Hijama, also known as wet cupping, is a traditional therapy that involves drawing out small amounts of blood through suction cups placed on the skin, followed by gentle incisions. Rooted in ancient healing practices and commonly used in Islamic and Eastern medicine, Hijama is believed to remove toxins, improve circulation, and restore balance in the body.

Benefits of Hijama Therapy:

• Relieves muscle tension and pain – especially in the back, neck, and shoulders

• Improves blood circulation – promoting faster healing and recovery

• Boosts immune function – by removing stagnated blood and toxins

• Reduces inflammation – helping with chronic conditions like arthritis

• Enhances relaxation and stress relief – promoting a sense of well-being

• Aids in migraine and headache relief – by targeting pressure points

• Supports digestive health and detoxification – improving overall bodily function

Hijama is often used as a complementary treatment to modern medicine and is popular among individuals seeking natural and holistic approaches to health.

During your initial appointment, we will conduct a thorough assessment, including taking your medical history, evaluating your physical condition, discuss your symptoms and goals. Based on this assessment, we will create a personalized treatment plan.

At times, you might find certain techniques uncomfortable. We encourage open feedback during your treatment and will always adjust to ensure you remain within your comfort zone. After treatment, it’s normal to experience some soreness or tenderness in the treated area, but this typically resolves within 24 to 48 hours. If you have any concerns afterward, please don’t hesitate to call the clinic for further advice.

In many cases, a referral is not required to see a physiotherapist. However, if your insurance plan or specific treatment requires a referral, your physiotherapist can guide you on how to obtain one.
