Myotherapy and Remedial Massage are two popular forms of manual therapy that can help to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and promote overall wellness.
Myotherapy is a form of manual therapy that focuses on the assessment, treatment, and management of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. Myotherapists use a range of techniques, including trigger point therapy, massage, joint mobilisations, myofascial release, cupping and dry needling to help relieve pain and improve mobility.
Myotherapy can be used to treat a range of conditions, including back pain, neck pain, chronic pain, headaches, and sports injuries.
Different to other forms of relaxation massage, Remedial Massage (sometimes referred to as “sports massage”) is classified as a therapeutic treatment. Remedial Massage is another form of manual therapy that is focused on the treatment of soft tissue injuries, pain, and dysfunction. Remedial massage therapists use a range of techniques, including deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, and stretching to help relieve pain and improve mobility.
Remedial massage can be used to treat a range of conditions, including back pain, joint pain, headaches, and injuries.
The main difference between Myotherapy and Remedial Massage is that Myotherapy is a more comprehensive approach that incorporates a wider range of techniques and can be used to treat a broader range of conditions. Myotherapy also involves a more extensive assessment and treatment planning process, which may include lifestyle and exercise recommendations.
Both Myotherapy and Remedial Massage can help to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and promote overall wellness. By releasing tension and promoting circulation, these therapies can help to reduce stress, improve sleep, and enhance immune function. Additionally, by addressing musculoskeletal imbalances and dysfunctions, these therapies can help to prevent future injuries and promote long-term health and well-being.
