SERVICES
The staff at Body@Boronia would like to extend their services to all who may be experiencing pain, postural deviations, decreased mobility and/or all who are generally feeling physically unwell.
- Myotherapy is the physical diagnosis, treatment and management of myofascial pain and other soft tissue conditions, which affect the integrity of human movement. Myofascial Trigger Points (MTP), or knots, are the basis of Myotherapy. MTP are not only capable of causing local pain, but they commonly refer pain to distant areas and as a result, are often overlooked.
- Osteopathy is a therapeutic system of diagnosis and treatment that uses precise manual techniques to restore disordered body framework to optimal mechanical and structural ease. Osteopathic treatment enhances overall bodily movement, the function of the nervous and circulatory systems and improves nutrition and drainage to tissues, thus assisting the body's inherent healing processes. Osteopaths are Primary Carers, therefore can refer for radiology if needed. They are highly trained in all aspects of anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, radiology and nutrition, just to name a few.
