Myotherapy

A Myotherapist can treat a wide range of conditions, from sporting or occupational injuries to overuse and chronic muscular disorders whilst also helping to prevent injury and promote wellbeing. Myotherapy is the assessment, treatment and management of musculoskeletal conditions, which may cause you muscular dysfunction and pain thus affecting your movement and mobility. Muscular dysfunction can be caused by trauma, overload or misuse of muscles arising from occupational, sporting or recreational activities. Myotherapists utilise a range of treatment techniques to restore and maintain the normal integrity of your soft tissue structures (muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia).

These treatment techniques include deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, dry needling, and corrective or rehabilitative exercises. Myotherapists treat the cause as well as the symptoms of a wide range of conditions affecting specific members of the population.

Notable examples include:

  • General population/Occupational Injuries
  • Athletes (Amateur and Professional)
  • The Elderly
  • Children and Adolescents
  • Pregnancy
  • Neurological Conditions (e.g. post-stroke)
  • Connective Tissue Dysfunction (e.g. fibromyalgia)
