Soft tissue work is used as an adjunct to chiropractic care to aid in improving the quality of the soft tissue structures. This can help relieve tissue tension and spasm and allow the tissues to function at a more optimal level. The term soft tissue refers to the muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and the joint capsule.

Dry needling is a technique that is effective and efficient in the treatment of muscular pain and myofascial dysfunction.
The treatment involves targeting muscle trigger points, a sensitive area within a taut band of a skeletal muscle that is painful on compression or muscle contraction. The approach is based on Western anatomical and neurophysiological principles. Dry needling should not to be confused with the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) technique of acupuncture. However, the same needles are used in both. Dry needling is based purely on treatment of musculoskeletal conditions and is not used for treating other conditions as TCM is.

A therapeutic taping technique that utilises hypoallergenic kinesio tape (K-Tape) to help alleviate pain, aid in functional support while allowing full range of motion, which may allow for body awareness improvements, improvements in slide and glide between tissue layers and is thought to help improve blood and lympathic drainage over the taped area.
Alongside K-Tape, rigid strapping tape is utilised for a robust supportive taping method to help in the stabilisation of joints during acute injuries such as ligament sprains, muscle strains, joint instability and inflammation. This method is ideal for when movements should be restricted with firm support.
