Myotherapy is the evidence-based assessment and treatment of muscular injury and dysfunction. The aims of a treatment are to reduce your pain and improve your muscular strength and flexibility whilst also correcting the underlying cause of your issue. All elements of your health and wellness are considered; the physical, psychological and occupational aspects in order to tailor a treatment plan for your unique presentation.

Imagine yourself free from the constraints of pain, able to move with ease and grace. You feel light and relaxed as you move through your day, able to enjoy every moment without fear of discomfort. Your body is strong and healthy, able to meet any challenge that comes your way. This is the power of remedial massage.

A relaxation massage enhances the wellbeing of the entire person and has both physical and mental benefits. Treatment utilises long, short and smooth gliding strokes to softly manipulate your muscles, decreasing general muscle tension and improving circulation and movement of lymph fluids throughout the body. Relaxation massage is the perfect way to destress the body and mind.

Dry needling is the insertion of very fine needles into muscular trigger points, also known as knots. Trigger points are thought to arise due to stress or injury that damages the muscle cell. this damage causes the release of inflammatory chemicals and metabolic substances that restrict blood flow, shorten the muscle fibre and sensitises nerve endings that send pain signals to the brain. Dry needling is thought to interrupt this process, restoring the muscle fibre to its original lengthened state whilst alleviating pain and tension.
