Myotherapy

Myotherapy is a specialised form of physical therapy that addresses musculoskeletal pain and dysfunctions through manual techniques and exercise prescription. Rooted in the principles of Western medicine, myotherapy involves the assessment, treatment and management of soft tissue injuries, chronic pain and postural issues.

The practice of Myotherapy includes a variety of hands-on techniques such as deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, dry needling, cupping and assisted stretching. These methods aim to alleviate muscular tension, reduce pain and improve mobility by targeting the underlying causes of discomfort.

Additionally, myotherapists often incorporate stretching and strengthening exercises to enhance the effectiveness of the treatment and prevent further injuries. By focusing on the body’s soft tissues, myotherapy helps restore balance and function, promoting overall physical wellbeing and improving quality of life.
