WHAT IS MYOTHERAPY?

Myotherapy is the specialised treatment and rehabilitation of muscle and joint disorders. It involves hands on manipulation of soft tissues and joints, used to remedy pain and dysfunction, and improve overall fitness and performance

HOW DOES IT WORK? 

Myotherapy is founded on the western medical knowledge of anatomy & physiology, biomechanics & kinesiology, manual therapies, and the pathology of soft tissues. Myotherapy works on a number of methods: 

* Improving local blood flow to damaged tissues allows them to heal, and removes toxins to reduce pain.
* Releasing tension from shortened muscles and tendons which decreases pain and improves function by ensuring that muscles contract to stabilise and provide maximum strength.
* Realigning joints ensures that full range is provided to the limb and decreases the risk of further injury. 

WHO CAN SEE A MYOTHERAPIST? 

You do not require a referral to see a Myotherapist. Myotherapy is safe and effective on people of all ages, from infants, children and adolescents, to the elderly, pregnant, and physically impaired.
