Myotherapy

Myotherapy is a holistic approach to healing, aiming to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall well-being. Qualified myotherapists use a variety of techniques to address musculoskeletal issues, including hands-on manual therapy, dry needling, and exercise prescription. Having a deep understanding of anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics, Myotherapists provide a personalised approach that allows for a comprehensive assessment of a patient’s movement patterns, pain triggers, and functional limitations, resulting in targeted treatment to restore optimal health. In addition to treating injuries and pain, myotherapy can be a valuable tool for anyone looking to maintain optimal physical and mental well-being.

Whether you’re seeking myotherapy in Prahran or nearby Toorak for a muscle injury or you’re looking for Myotherapy in Fitzroy North or Northcote to alleviate the pain of stiff joints, Stable Massage can assist with trusted myotherapy treatment.

Dry Needling

Our Myotherapists and massage therapists practice a technique referred to as ‘dry needling’ for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. Myofascial dry needling is a therapeutic technique involving the location of active or latent myofascial trigger points in skeletal muscle and its associated fascia. Once located, the practitioner uses a sterile needle to probe and de-activate each trigger point.

Dry needling is a cost-effective and efficient technique for the treatment of myofacial pain, injury and chronic muscular dysfunction. This is why we incorporate dry needling into our myotherapy in St Kilda, Prahran and other clinic locations.

The approach is based on western anatomical and neuro-physiological principals, not to be confused with the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) technique of acupuncture. Dry needling is incorporated within the massage treatment.
