Treatment for Shin Splints

Shin splints are referred to as pain or tenderness along the long bone of the shin. Muscles often involved are Tibialis Anterior Extensor Digatorum Longus or Tibialis Posterior.

Shin Splints are treated with a combination of:
-Active Release Technique
-Low Level Laser Therapy
-Strengthening and Stretching Exercises
-Dry Needling
-Massage

Active Release Technique (ART) is an advanced examination and treatment system which involves a combination of precise tensioning and movement to break down scar tissue and adhesions in muscles, tendons, ligaments and other soft tissues.

The effectiveness of ART lies in its ability to specifically identify and then eliminate soft tissue restrictions which limit flexibility and cause pain.

ART has become an integral treatment utilised here at the clinic with brilliant results.

Dry needling one of the treatments we utilise for dysfunctional musculature.

We especially love utilizing it for Tennis elbow, painful tight hip musculature and unhappy Trapezius muscles

My favourite two basic neck strengthening exercises.

Resistance bands are perfect for strengthening necks.

Always strengthen the tissues around and involved in an injury to avoid future problems. 💪

As well as hands on soft tissue therapy we also use IASTM tools to treat muscular complaints. It looks painful and medieval but trust us it's not.😊

The benefits of IASTM therapy include:
Relieve pain from soft tissue injuries.
Improve blood flow.
Decrease muscle spasms.
Promote tissue healing from injuries.

There are many causes of stiffness and loss of movement ( immobility, tight muscle, restricted joint function, inflammation, degenerative joint disease) but treatment can help restore movement and allieviate pain associated with it.😊💃🕺

Assessment and treatment pain and stiffness at the base of the neck. Many complaints we see here in clinic these days develop after prolonged desk work and smartphone use.

In this case the spinal vertebrae have become painful and restricted in movement so we perform a spinal adjustment to restore movement which reduces pain.

The patient also received soft tissue massage, stretches and strengthening exercises to resolve the complaint. 😊
