Tissue Recovery

When soft tissue is injured — a sprain, a strain, a post-operative site — the body's repair process needs supplies delivered and waste cleared. Swelling and congestion get in the way of both. Tissue recovery sessions are designed around that simple idea: clear the congestion, calm the area, and let the body work.

What a session can draw on

• Low level laser therapy — non-thermal light applied directly to the affected area. It is painless and non-invasive: you feel the device against your skin, but no heat, sound or vibration. Kylie has used it across sports injuries, sprains and post-operative sites for many years, and completed device training with Multi Radiance and Raincorp.
• Manual lymphatic drainage where swelling is present — particularly useful in acute injuries where the area is too swollen and tender for ordinary massage, such as a freshly sprained ankle.
• Remedial massage around the affected area once the tissue is ready for it, to address the compensating and guarding muscles that build up around an injury.
• Hivamat deep oscillation through the recovering tissue.

Who commonly books this

Patients recovering from sprains, strains and sports injuries; people rehabilitating after orthopaedic surgery alongside their physiotherapy; and athletes using pre- and post-event sessions to support their training recovery. Many patients are referred by their chiropractor, physiotherapist or doctor, and Kylie is happy to work in with the rest of your care team.
