What Are Trigger Point Injections (TPI)?
Trigger Point Injections (TPI) are injections into specific areas of the body using a hypodermic needle and local anaesthetic to relieve tight, painful muscles and can also help calm irritated nerves (often called Neural Therapy).
What is the difference between Trigger Point Injections (TPI) and Dry Needling or Intramuscular Stimulation IMS?
TPI is similar to dry needling or IMS – very fine needles are used during the procedure which produce a minimal amount of discomfort when penetrating the skin.
As the needle approaches the target area a muscle twitch response is elicited which usually results in a reduction of muscle tightness and pain. By releasing these tight muscle areas, it can also relieve pressure on irritated nerves.

Mary Wong Colebrook is an absolute delight. From the first time I met with her for vestibular therapy, she demonstrated her expertise in the field. She was able to resolve my vertigo in the initial session. As it is a recurring ear crystal issue, she's has told me not to suffer with it and she will make ever effort to squeeze me in as soon as possible. She is a wonderful therapist and person!read more

I booked Ian to deal with my knee and found Ian to be very knowledgeable and good at explaining to me the issues related to my injury and recommendations for recovery. I'd definitely recommend Ian for any sport related injury.read more

Mary Wong Colebrook is an amazing physiotherapist. She is friendly, enthusiastic and encouraging. I have had 3 treatments for a painful foot condition and I can't believe the benefits. Mary quickly identified the root issue offering exercises to do to address it while treating the pain and tension in my body during our sessions. I am so glad I found her, she was recommended to me by a friend who also had great success through her treatments. Thank you Mary!read more

Matt Rose has helped me bounce back from a shoulder injury, back issues, and most recently bicep tendonitis. Basically he’s the reason I’m still held together like a functioning human. As an accomplished athlete himself, he gives spot-on recovery advice and even explains what not to do during the sports I insist on playing anyway.Also, I’m fairly certain he has the grip strength of a gorilla. Possibly two gorillas. 😆Highly recommend!read more
