What Do Myotherapists treat?

Myotherapists provide evidence-informed assessment, treatment and rehabilitation for a wide range of musculoskeletal pain and associated conditions, for example:

  • Back pain
  • Neck and shoulder pain
  • General pain management
  • Headache and migraine management
  • Sports injuries
  • Rotator cuff problems
  • Tennis elbow
  • Occupational injuries

  • Jaw pain and clicking
  • Fibromyalgia and other chronic pain presentations

What is Myotherapy?

Myotherapy is a trusted healthcare profession that takes a whole-of-care approach to effectively assess, treat and manage injuries, pain and dysfunction. In short: myotherapy helps people in pain to move better, feel better and live their best life.

Myotherapy treatment applies a range of techniques (modalities) and takes an evidence-informed approach to support client outcomes, with a focus on supporting self-management. Qualified practitioners use clinical reasoning, manual hands-on therapy, problem solving and planning skills to design and implement treatment and management programs specific to client needs and health outcomes.

Treatment applications may include, but are not limited to, dry needling, exercise and rehabilitation planning, massage therapy and joint mobilisation.
