Muscle Strength

Muscle Strength Techniques are gentle and effective. Using remedial massage, cupping, dry needling, rehabilitation e Myotherapy uses a holistic approach.

Myotherapy is a modality that works with the soft tissues of the body to help to relieve pain and restriction. It looks at the cause of the pain and manages it by using a variety of techniques and incorporates self-help.
• It uses massage techniques as well as other modalities. This gives both therapist and client the choice of techniques that best suit them.
• Works to treat the cause not just the symptoms. It also looks at releasing pressure, tightness and restriction that may occur gradually or suddenly. There are many benefits in treating muscular pain or injuries with myotherapy. As there are various techniques that are gentle yet effective. It assists in relaxing the tension within the muscles that are causing the pain or injury, reduces the pain, improves muscular strength, reduces muscle weakness, improves blood flow, and improves range of movement. When treating a client it is important to find out what is actually causing the pain or injury, then to treat it and reassess to check the progress after the session. Once a client is at a certain point they can then begin to be given stretches and exercises to then build stronger and stable muscles to reduces reoccurring pain or injury. Myotherapy is looking to assist people to improve their daily living. A myotherapy session goes from assessing the pain or injury to treating it. Followed by reassessing the issue to see the progression. To then be able to be given exercises and stretches in a controlled way to help improve muscle strength. The stretch and exercise program will be implemented in 3 phases. Each phase will help increase strength within the muscles. The first phase is the beginning. It is the first step in beginning to use exercises and stretches to assist and progress the client towards recovery and increasing muscle strength. Second phase is where the stretches and exercises begin to get a bit hard to continue to increase the muscles strength. To move to the second phase there should be no pain when attempting the exercises/ stretches in phase one. Phase 3 is the final phase and this is where progression continues. The exercises or stretches are harder again and still need to be done carefully and without pain. Once the client has reached this phase they should be able to then go back to their sports, or other daily activities. Book your appointment here: https://sandrapeggmyotherapy.cliniko.com/bookings

Compensation. What is it?

Compensation is as it suggests.
Once we hurt or injure ourselves, we tend to change whether we limp, lean forward or lean back. We may even start to use the other arm to take pressure off the hurt or injured body part. It can mean we start to rely more highly on different body parts to do the work.

Our latest article: No pain, no gain. Where does this fit into Myotherapy?

We have all heard it said, “No pain, no gain”. So what is the idea behind it, and how does Myotherapy fit?

I have frequently heard people say that they are in pain and need to feel pain during a session. Some say it is good to feel pain, while others do not enjoy feeling pain. Is pain while getting treatment a necessary factor in knowing if the treatment will work?
