Myotherapy is a body & soft tissue therapy used to assess & treat myofascial or musculoskeletal pain, injury & disfunction that affect mobility & movement. Trigger points, a medical term defined as an irritable spot in the muscle, are located & diffused using gentle to medium pressure applied with the fingertips, knuckles, or elbows. Muscle groups are then stretched & relaxed to restore and maintain the normal function of the soft tissue structure (muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia)
A myotherapy treatment can include soft tissue manipulation, trigger point therapy, myofascial dry needling, myofascial release, cupping, thermal therapy / cryotherapy, postural assessment and correction, corrective exercises (stretches, strength), core stability exercises, diet and nutritional advice.
