Myotherapy

Myotherapy Services in Graceville

Myotherapy is a form of manual therapy which uses evidence-based assessment, treatment and rehabilitation techniques to assess, treat and manage neuromusculoskeletal (nerve, muscle and joint) pain and dysfunction. Relieving and preventing soft tissue pain and restricted joint movement caused by muscle or myofascia dysfunction. Muscular dysfunction can be caused by trauma, overload or misuse of muscles arising from occupational, sporting or recreational activities.

Symptoms of soft tissue pain are any pain caused by muscle tissue or muscle fascia and can include:

  • Sporting Injuries
  • Deep, consistent aching
  • Muscle tightness
  • Sore spots in the muscle (myofascial trigger points)
  • Numbness
  • Reduced joint mobility
  • Stiff or painful joints
  • Recurrent tingling or ‘pins and needles’ sensation

A Myotherapist can help to identify the cause of your complaints and treat the cause rather then just treating your symptoms.
