Myotherapists assess and physically treat myofascial pain, injury and dysfunction affecting movement and mobility. Myotherapy is applied in the preventative, corrective and rehabilitative phases of therapy to restore and maintain the normal integrity of the soft tissue structure (muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia) of the human body.
Myotherapy is one of the multi-skilled physical therapies within the Allied Health Profession.
One of the areas Myotherapy can be effective is in the deactivation of trigger points in muscles. Trigger points are often created when a muscle is damaged via sports, accidents, occupations and disease. Trigger points can be painful and refer pain to other areas of the body.
Excesss emotional and physical stresses can create muscle tension. Muscle tension can cause pain and affect mobility. Myotherapy can aid recovery and decrease muscle soreness.
