Myotherapy can be used for a number of injuries or conditions caused by:

• Strains and sprains
• Occupational, postural and recreational stresses

• Deep tissue massage
• Myofascial release
• Trigger point therapy
• Stretching
• Dry needling
• Heat therapies

Injuries and conditions can be addressed by prescribing stretching and corrective exercises for rehabilitation.

Remedial Massage

One of the treatment methods myotherapists use is remedial massage. It involves the use of soft and deep tissue massage techniques to ease muscular pain caused by injuries or general soreness.

A remedial massage is an ideal form of treatment when you are suffering from a condition or injury requiring specific attention and care.

A variety of muscular disorders can be treated by remedial massage, including the following;

• Sports injuries
• Sedentary desk job
• Lifestyle-induced pain
• Tech neck
• Pregnancy
• Nerve pain
• Herniated and bulging discs
• Sciatica
• Back pain

Dry Needling

Dry needling is primarily used to treat muscular pain and injury. Treatment involves inserting thin needles into the muscles through the skin.

In dry needling, myofascial trigger points that are causing you the most discomfort are targeted. 

The technique aims to release built-up tension and pain by creating a local twitch response (LTR) in targeted soft tissue areas. 

The massage will help relieve your trigger points and improve your range of motion.
