Myotherapy translates to 'muscle therapy' and is the assessment, treatment and rehabilitation of soft tissue pain and dysfunction. Myotherapists use a number of techniques including massage, dry needling, joint mobilisation, muscle energy technique and exercise rehabilitation. Although many patients present with pain, you do not have to be in pain to see a Myotherapist, as myotherapy assessments can identify areas of dysfunction that may lead to pain if not managed correctly.

Remedial massage focuses on a specific area of the body that is producing pain or not performing correctly and treats the muscles, tendons, ligaments and connective tissue with the aim to regain full range of motion and decrease pain. In remedial massage there are multiple techniques used including, deep tissue, myofascial tensioning, cupping, trigger point, application of heat and stretching. All of these techniques are designed to increase blood flow and reduce muscle tension.
