What is Myotherapy? Myotherapy is the assessment, treatment and prevention of the musculoskeletal system, including soft tissue pain, trigger points (hypersensitive ‘knots’ that cause pain) and restricted joint movement. These can be cause by injured muscles or myofascial dysfunction (muscular pain and discomfort). The aim of Myotherapy is to treat the cause as well as the symptoms of a wide range of conditions. A variety of different techniques are used to prevent and treat muscle pain and dysfunction, including myofascial release and acupressure to rebalance your body, realigning your muscles so the body can heal itself. Treatment is directed at the fascia or soft tissue components including connective tissue, muscles, ligaments and tendons.
