Myotherapy

Myotherapy is a specialised form of physical therapy focused on the assessment, treatment, and management of muscle and joint pain. At Essence of Health, myotherapy is used to help relieve discomfort, restore movement, and support your body’s ability to function at its best.

Myotherapy looks beyond the area of pain to identify the underlying causes of dysfunction. By addressing muscle imbalance, tension, and restricted movement, treatment helps improve both comfort and overall mobility.

Each session is tailored to your individual needs, ensuring treatment is appropriate for your condition, comfort level, and goals..

 Myotherapy may assist with a wide range of conditions, including:

• Back and neck pain
   
• Shoulder pain and restricted movement
   
• Muscle tightness and tension
   
• Headaches and migraines
   
• Hip and pelvic pain
   
• Knee and joint discomfort
   
• Sports and activity-related injuries
   
• Postural strain from prolonged sitting or repetitive tasks
   
• Sciatica and nerve-related pain
   
• Chronic muscular pain and stiffness
   

Whether your symptoms are recent or long-standing, myotherapy aims to support recovery and improve physical function.

 Your myotherapist will begin with a thorough assessment to understand your symptoms, medical history, posture, and movement patterns. This helps identify contributing factors and ensures treatment is targeted and effective.

Treatment may include a combination of hands-on techniques and corrective strategies designed to:

• Reduce muscle tension
   
• Improve flexibility and mobility
   
• Restore normal muscle function
   
• Support injury recovery
   
• Improve posture and movement patterns
   

You may also be provided with simple exercises or advice to help maintain the benefits of treatment between sessions.
