Myotherapy is a manual therapy (or treatment program) that aims at treating and managing soft tissues injuries using wide range of techniques from massage, dry needling, taping, heat/ice pack, motor re-training exercises (corrective exercises) to name a few.
Remedial massage is an effective way to relieve pain and tension throughout the whole body. The manipulation of soft tissue relaxes the muscle, improves joint mobility and enhances range of motion. The techniques used depend on the location, severity and the type of pain.
Sport Massage is a form of remedial massage therapy given with the understanding not only of anatomy and physiology but also of the particular demands placed upon the body by the client and their specific sport.
