By Injury ...
Muscle Strains
Muscle strains are caused through maximal efforts to a muscle causing faults in the muscle fibres resulting in potential tears. This is a condition that take weeks - months (depending in degree of injury) to fully recovery due to the bodies natural healing process.
Along the road recovery, rehabilitation is vitally important to realign new collagen fibres and avoid scar tissue within the recovering tissue. With an appropriate rehabilitation plan, muscle strength can be regained to minimised re-injury risk.
Soft tissue techniques will also enhance the healing process of the body during the recovery of an injury to help with muscle elongation & elasticity. Also reducing the re-injury rate.
Ligament Sprains
Ligament sprains are caused when a joint is stressed beyond its' normal range of motion causing a ligament to fault & tear. Following this, swelling, bruising, pain and joint instability will occur in the joint.
Treatment of sprains also takes time for the bodies natural healing process to rebuild a ligament. During this, progressively improving proprioception & control is vital for the correction of ligament fibres and reducing re-injury rate.
During a thorough assessment, if there's any muscle weakness noted that contributed to an injury, this will also be taken into consideration & improved during a rehabilitation plan.
Tendinopathy Injuries
Tendinopathy injuries occur when there has been a sudden increase in training load causing tendon stiffness, thickening & pain.
Common tendinopathy injuries include Patella tendinopathy, Achilles tendinopathy, Rotator Cuff tendinopathy and more ...
Treatment of a tendinopathy injury includes soft tissue massage techniques, joint mobilisations, rehabilitation plans and more.

Lower Back Pain
Lower back pain can be caused by a number of issues, postural contributions, muscle weaknesses, biomechanical faults and more. At ABC Target Treatments will gain an understanding of your back pain and what is needed to improve this.
Visiting ABC Target Treatments can finally gain control of long-term chronic lower back pain and make a real change to your quality of life.
Upper Back & Neck Pain
Soft tissue of the upper back and neck are heavily interlinked and in high cases, when one is irritated, so is the other.
Soft tissue massage techniques are highly successful in the treatment of upper back and neck symptoms. By increasing range of motion and encouraging relaxation of soft tissue, aches and pains can be massively reduced allowing a client to feel a new lease of life with the drastic change in symptoms.
Shoulder Pain
Joint Pain
Joint pain can be cause through many different reasons:
- Muscle Imbalances
- Joint Instability
- Osteoarthritic Changes
- Previous Injuries
- Postural contributions

Again through an expert assessment of the client, understanding where joint pain comes from can be obtained allowing for the appropriate treatment plan to be designed and encourage recovery.
