Focused Shockwave Therapy

Focused Shockwave Therapy (FSWT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses targeted acoustic waves to promote healing in muscles, tendons, and joints. It’s commonly used for conditions like plantar fasciitis, tendinitis, and tennis elbow — helping reduce pain, improve mobility, and speed up recovery.


It is ideal for active individuals or anyone seeking a non-surgical solution for chronic or stubborn injuries.

Dry Cupping Therapy

Dry cupping uses suction to improve blood flow, relieve muscle tension, and enhance mobility. At Rival KL, we apply myofascial cupping and decompression techniques using glass cups to ease soft tissue restriction and support recovery. It’s often used for muscle tightness, inflammation, and circulation issues

It is ideal for athletes or anyone with chronic pain or stiffness.

Dry Needling

Dry needling targets muscle trigger points with thin needles to release tightness, reduce pain, and improve movement. Unlike acupuncture, it’s rooted in modern anatomy and is commonly used for chronic pain, headaches, and muscle-related injuries.

It is ideal for those with persistent tension or sports-related discomfort.

Instrumented Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation (IASTM)

IASTM uses specialized tools to break down scar tissue, release fascia, and ease muscle tension. This technique promotes healing, improves mobility, and reduces pain. At Rival KL, our therapists use IASTM to target problem areas precisely and speed up recovery.

It is ideal for those recovering from injuries or dealing with chronic tightness, often combined with rehab exercises for best results.

Thermotherapy

Thermotherapy uses heat — via hot packs, ultrasound, or heating pads — to increase blood flow, relax muscles, and ease pain or stiffness. It’s commonly used for arthritis, muscle injuries, and chronic pain. At Rival KL, thermotherapy is often combined with stretching, massage, or rehab exercises to enhance recovery and improve mobility.

It is ideal for individuals with chronic stiffness, joint discomfort, or those needing gentle preparation before physical activity or manual therapy.

Exercise Therapy

Exercise therapy involves targeted movements to improve strength, flexibility, balance, and overall function. It’s used to aid recovery from injuries, chronic conditions, or physical limitations. At Rival KL, each program is tailored to the client’s needs and guided by professionals in our performance centre.

It is ideal for anyone seeking to regain mobility, reduce pain, and enhance their quality of life through movement.

Therapeutic Ultra Sound Therapy

Therapeutic ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to stimulate deep tissue healing, improve blood flow, and reduce inflammation. It’s commonly used for soft tissue injuries, joint pain, and muscle spasms. At Rival KL, this treatment is often combined with stretching or rehab exercises to support faster recovery and lasting results.

It is ideal for those dealing with chronic pain, swelling, or stubborn soft tissue injuries.

Taping & Strapping

Taping and strapping are supportive techniques used to stabilize joints, reduce strain, and aid recovery from injuries like sprains, strains, and tendonitis. Taping uses adhesive tape to support muscles or joints, while strapping involves elastic bandages or specialized wraps for targeted compression and support. It is commonly used for knee and ankle instability or shoulder issues,

It is ideal for athletes or individuals needing extra protection during movement or rehab.
