What is Myotherapy?
Myotherapy (muscular therapy) is a form of physical therapy used to treat or prevent muscular and soft tissue pain and restricted joint movement.
It involves assessing the injury or dysfunction, physically treating the pain using various techniques such as massage, dry needling and stretching, followed by rehabilitation of the soft tissue and underlying causes.
Dysfunctions may be pain from injuries or chronic tightness that may arise from sporting, recreational or occupational activities, trauma or surgery, postural or genetic conditions, and may cause pain and stiffness resulting in restricted movement of a joint or mobility.
The aims of myotherapy treatment are to decrease pain, improve muscular strength, flexibility and range of motion of a muscle or joint.
To help manage the injury or dysfunction, corrective exercises, stretches and relevant advice are given to help manage the problem.
The Myotherapy treatment may include the use of a number of modalities including:
- soft tissue manipulation,
- massage deep tissue massage,
- myofascial release,
- trigger point therapy,
- dry needling,
- cupping,
- corrective exercise/rehabilitative programs.
A Myotherapy assessment can include postural assessment, neural testing, range of motions, functional and orthopaedic testing along with palpatory examination - this will helps us obtain information that could be causing the dysfunction.
