Treatments

 

Evidence-based techniques to relieve pain, restore movement, and speed recovery.

At our Myotherapy clinic, we use a combination of manual therapy techniques and tailored exercises to address pain, improve mobility, and help you return to your best. Every treatment plan is personalised to your needs and goals.

Soft Tissue Massage

Myofascial release

A slow, continuous technique that gently stretches and hydrates the fascia (connective tissue), helping it glide smoothly over your muscles. This promotes flexibility, eases tension, and restores healthy tissue movement.

Deep tissue massage

Targets deeper layers of muscle to relieve chronic tension and soreness. Ideal for sports and exercise recovery, or for anyone with persistent muscle tightness. Some initial discomfort is normal and eases as the body adjusts.

Trigger point (TrP) release

Applies sustained pressure to “knots” in the muscle to ease pain and restore normal muscle function. Techniques include press-and-stretch and positional release, which relax tight fibres and improve mobility.

JOINT MOBILISATION

Gentle movements applied to joints to improve range of motion, reduce stiffness, and relieve pain. Techniques may include oscillations, traction, or sustained holds to create space between bones and restore movement.

DRY NEEDLING

Uses fine needles to release tight trigger points, improve blood flow, and promote healing. The process may cause a brief muscle twitch, a sign the muscle is releasing tension. Dry needling can also stimulate tissue repair by triggering the body’s natural healing response.

FIRE CUPPING

Uses heated cups to create suction, increasing blood flow, releasing tight fascia, and aiding waste removal from tissues.

Static cupping: Cups stay in place for targeted treatment.
Dynamic cupping: Cups glide over muscles to lift tissue and improve mobility.

Marks left on the skin are a normal sign of tissue release and fade within days.

    MET STRETCHING

    Muscle Energy Technique (MET) Stretching is a gentle yet highly effective form of manual therapy that combines precise muscle contractions with controlled stretching. This approach helps to lengthen tight or shortened muscles, improve joint range of motion, and enhance overall flexibility.

    During your session, your Myotherapist will guide you through a series of specific muscle activations where you gently contract a targeted muscle group against resistance. After each contraction, the muscle is stretched to a new, more relaxed position. This process helps reset muscle tension, promote better alignment, and restore optimal muscle function.

    exercise 

    To support your recovery and long-term health, we provide personalised exercise programs tailored to your condition and goals. These may include strength work, mobility drills, stretching, and movement retraining. Exercises are designed to complement your Myotherapy treatments and help you stay active and progressing between sessions. Each program is sent directly to your email with clear instructions, video demonstrations, and guidance on how often to complete them.
