Muscleworx offers Myotherapy and Remedial Massage in the Essendon area. Our experienced therapists are here to help with your muscular pain, tightness, mobility and restricted movement. Myotherapy (muscular therapy) is a form of physical therapy used to treat or prevent muscular and soft tissue pain (myofascial pain) and restricted joint movement.
It involves assessing the injury or dysfunction, physically treating the pain using various techniques such as soft tissue therapy, deep tissue massage, dry needling and stretching, followed by rehabilitation to treat any underlying causes. Dysfunctions may arise from chronic muscle tightness from sporting, recreational or occupational activities, injury, trauma or surgery, postural or genetic conditions.
