Myotherapy

Have you sustained work or sports-related injuries? Do you have musculoskeletal pain of any kind? If so, maybe you’ve heard of myotherapy.

This type of therapy is frequently used on athletes suffering from injuries, but it’s certainly not limited to the rehabilitation required after sports injuries. Musculoskeletal pain can also be brought about by poor posture or biomechanics.

If you’re suffering from any of the following, it’s worth investigating myotherapy therapists in Sunshine Coast:

• Constant and nagging pain.
• Inexplicable fatigue.
• Numbness.
• Reduced joint mobility.
• Sensation of pins and needles.
• Sore spots in the muscle (myofascial trigger points).
• Stiff joints.
• Tightening of the muscles.

If any of those symptoms are familiar to you, contact us today at Surf & Sports Myotherapy.

Whatever the root cause and nature of your musculoskeletal pain, myotherapy can deliver a range of direct benefits, including the following:

• Correcting your posture.
• Delivering a better quality of sleep.
• Enhancing productivity.
• Giving your immune system a jolt.
• Helping to improve your exercise performance.
• Improving muscular pain and stiffness.
• Reducing the likelihood of future injuries.
• Relieving stress.
• Widening the range of mobility in your joints.

How will your therapist deliver these benefits, though?

If you end up deciding on myotherapy near Sunshine Coast, a thorough assessment is the first phase of therapy.

A range of techniques can then be effectively used to treat and manage pain.

Dry needling: This is an evidence-based approach to relaxing any overactive muscles. Fine, sterilised needles are inserted into the trigger points of affected muscles. As the name suggests, these needles contain no substances at all. Unlike acupuncture, dry needling follows Western principles of anatomy and physiology.

Trigger point therapy: This works to directly relieve the pain at trigger points.

Stretching, exercise and rehabilitation: As an active form of therapy, you will be shown how to stretch, and to exercise, while recovering in such a way as to rehabilitate your injury without inflaming it further.

Myotherapy will be personalised as no two situations are the same. The more involved you get in the process, the better the results you can expect to achieve.
