WHAT IS MYOTHERAPY?
Myotherapists assess and treat Myofascial (muscular) pain, injury and dysfunction. Myotherapy is used for prevention, correction and rehabilitation, to restore and maintain the normal function of the Myofascial system in the human body.
The prefix 'Myo' means 'muscle' in Latin.
Myotherapists sometimes incorporate 'Myofascial dry needling' which uses acupuncture needles for certain treatments, but these are not always used for the majority of procedures.
Myotherapists use hands on treatment which usually makes up the bulk of a consultation. We 'feel' for problematic areas in the tissues and joints, then we treat those areas with the appropriate soft tissue techniques. Myotherapy can be an excellent alternative to other modalities such as Physiotherapy and Chiropractic.
Other techniques can also be used in the treatment. These include:-
- Chinese Cupping, Guasha and Acupressure.
- Bowen therapy (NST).
- Deep tissue, Postural integration work.
- Joint mobilisation work.
- SFEF Kinesiology.
YOUR TREATMENT
Most people with acute and chronic Musculoskeletal problems, are faced with a myriad of choices for treatment. Many pain syndromes actually come from the muscular or Myofascial system, which makes up nearly half of our body weight.
At Body Balance Myotherapy, you will receive thorough assessment and treatment for your condition.You will be educated in what's going on and how you can manage your condition to aid a speedy recovery.
Most people notice a considerable improvement after the first visit and most muscular conditions usually resolve in about three treatments or less.
If it is decided that you're not making good progress, you will often be referred to another specialist in our network for a second opinion.
As a client, you will not be left in the dark or pay out hundreds of dollars for quick and ineffective treatments, that may continue for months on end without resolve.
The aim here is to provide maximum benefit to you in fewer treatments, however some clients may need ongoing treatment for particular degenerative conditions, such as Osteoarthritis. "Over servicing" clients or asking for upfront payment plans is not a part of the treatment protocol here.
Your treatment is effective, thorough and is adapted to your level of comfort. The inspiration to do this work, is to help people attain greater freedom and happiness. You are in good hands.
