Q1: What is myotherapy, and how is it different from remedial massage?
A: While both therapies aim to reduce muscular tension and improve mobility, myotherapy goes a step further by using clinical assessment and advanced techniques like dry needling, joint mobilisation, and myofascial release. Myotherapists at Function Allied Health focus on long-term rehabilitation, not just relaxation.

Q3: Is myotherapy painful?
A: Some techniques like trigger point therapy or dry needling may feel slightly uncomfortable during treatment, but most clients describe the experience as a “good pain” followed by significant relief. Our therapists always work within your comfort levels.
Q4: How many sessions will I need?
A: It depends on your condition and goals. Acute issues may resolve within 2–3 sessions, while chronic or complex problems may require a longer plan. Your myotherapist will create a custom treatment roadmap during your first visit.
