Feel Good With Myotherapy
Myotherapy is the assessment, treatment and management of musculoskeletal conditions founded on western medical principles including anatomy, physiology and biomechanics. When muscular dysfunction causes pain and affects mobility Myotherapists use a range of hands on techniques to restore function to muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia. Dietary recommendations, exercise prescription and injury prevention education are other non-hands on approaches to help with pain.
At Osteopathic Works our Myotherapist may treat a range of conditions including
Overuse injuries such as tennis elbow, shin splints
Sports injuries
Tension headaches
Pain from poor posture
Subacute and chronic back pain
Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS)
Joint pain such as shoulder impingement syndrome
Muscle sprains and strains
Myotherapy can be used in conjunction with a number of therapies to aid rehabilitation and improve tissue healing time by increasing blood and oxygen flow, improving range of motion and removing waste products in soft tissues.
Other benefits of myotherapy include:
Reduced muscle tension
