About Us
Myotherapist Shannyn Trevorah opened Proactive Myotherapy in Emerald in May 2009, alongside well known podiatrist Lisa Merrett. Shannyn has completed the highest qualification within the discipline of myotherapy - a four year Bachelor of Health Science degree at Southern School of Natural Therapies.
She has previously worked with Richmond Football Club for two and a half years in the post-injury and injury prevention areas.
Recently Shannyn has returned to Southern School of Natural Therapies as a lecturer a 2nd year subject in surface anatomy. Shannyn’s client Kylie, from Cockatoo, received myotherapy treatment for her back, neck, shoulders and knee.
“I have tried several other treatments in the past but this has been the most effective with reducing pain and improving movement and flexibility,” she said.
“Shannyn is friendly and professional, and spends time thoroughly assessing the problem and area to be treated.”
“She is able to explain things in a way which is simple to understand and makes sense.”
