Myotherapy focuses on the muscles, joints, and soft tissues that are commonly responsible for pain, tightness, and restricted movement.
A Myotherapy session includes:
a clear assessment to find what's causing your symptoms
hands-on treatment targeted at the affected area
treatment to surrounding tissues that may be compensating
strategies to help the area settle
optional tools like dry needling, cupping or mobilisation
corrective exercises (if useful)
If you've ever walked into a physio appointment expecting hands-on treatment and didn't get it, Myotherapy is exactly what people often look for instead.
Myotherapists specialise in soft tissue, movement, biomechanics, and hands-on care - making Myotherapy a great choice for pain, tightness, or injury that's coming from muscles or movement patterns.
Why people choose Myotherapy over Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy is fantastic for post-surgical rehab, structured exercise programs and medical management. But many physio clinics don't offer much hands-on treatment anymore.
People choose Myotherapy when they want:
immediate hands-on treatment
targeted work on tight or irritated tissues
a practical explanation of what's going on
techniques like dry needling, cupping or massage
a blend of relief + movement support
someone who actually works on the area that hurts
