Why Myotherapy at Core Physio + Pilates?
Our goal is to help you recover, in order to increase your sense of well-being for lifestyle, work and sport. If required, your Myotherapist may design a rehabilitation program as part of your ongoing treatment plan. This may include a tailored at home or studio exercise program combining Pilates, stretches and/or Physiotherapy treatment, to ensure a speedy and long-term recovery.
Our Myotherapists are known for their ability to communicate with you, their hands-on and results-driven approach and their confident manner when managing your health-care. At Core we take ongoing education very seriously which is why our Myotherapists and health practitioners are constantly updating their skills and using the latest evidence-based treatments to get you results and take care of your health.
Our Myotherapists want you to feel great when you walk out of your appointment, but more importantly, they are focused on long-term results and the prevention of future injury.
Is Myotherapy for me?
Myotherapy is appropriate for:
Our qualified and compassionate Myotherapists are able to treat patients of all ages and with a wide-ranging presentation of health concerns. Our expert Myotherapists apply their knowledge and skills to a wide range of issues, including sports injuries, pre and post-surgery rehabilitation, injury assessment and rehab, severe muscle tightness and spasms, pre and postnatal care, migraines, massage Myotherapy as well as relaxation and general well being.
Myotherapy is part of our approach to family wellness, which means that our Myos take appointments for children, teens, pregnant and postnatal women, elite athletes, seniors, and those with general health complaints or concerns. The techniques used in myo are adapted as part of the individualised care you receive.
Why Myotherapy at Core Physio + Pilates?
Myotherapists treat the muscles, soft tissue, ligaments and tendons of the body while Physiotherapists treat the structure and joint mechanisms of the body. Both use manual therapy to alleviate pain and discomfort, yet the way they do this varies. Myotherapists tend to have a slightly more hands-on approach during your appointment. Myotherapy and remedial massage is often used to treat patients as well as exercises, stretches, dry-needling, cupping and other massage techniques. At Core, we have a holistic approach to your body and your health, which means that our allied health practitioners work together to ensure you are receiving the best care focusing on the best outcomes for you and your health concerns.

Ensuring you feel comfortable during your Myotherapy consultation is key.
Your appointment may be 30-minutes to one hour, depending on the treatment required. This will all be confirmed with you at the time of booking.
