Myotherapy
Myotherapy – Muscular Therapy – is a form of manual therapy which focuses on the assessment, treatment and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal pain and associated pathologies. 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.
Pain or symptoms caused by muscle (myo) or fascia is described as myofascial. Myofascial pain is usually not specific and is often described by the patient as a ‘deep ache’, ‘tightness’ or ‘tenderness’ in an area. It can vary in intensity and radiate to other areas. Other symptoms can include reduced range of motion of muscles and joints, stiffness, fatigue, weakness, numbness or a tingling sensation. There are many other symptoms depending on the condition and patients can have one or many symptoms.
Assessment of a joint dysfunction, musculoskeletal or nerve injury, pain and referred pain pattern, musculoskeletal pathologies and associated conditions is essential in the treatment and recovery of the client. The problem needs to be identified before it can be alleviated or removed. This is the aim of the Myotherapist – to return the client to optimal health and mobility by assessing, treating and rehabilitating the concern at hand.
