Myotherapists restore the integrity of the muscular system. They treat myofascial pain, injury and dysfunction affecting movement and mobility. Public awareness of myotherapy is slowly increasing as success stories spread and alternative medicine becomes more accepted. In fact, complementary and alternative approaches to health and medicine are among the fastest-growing aspects of health care.

A common condition treated by Myotherapists is trigger points.Trigger points are areas of tight muscle fibres. They can cause local or referred pain and can be caused by injury, emotional stress, physical stress or disease. Elimination of trigger points through Myotherapy can help reduce chronic and acute pain. Success is usually speedy because a trained therapist can show a family member or friend of the patient how to do some basic trigger points, to try and relieve pain between sessions.
