RAD Recovery
Myotherapy
A specialised clinical approach that assesses and treats musculoskeletal pain, targeting the root cause, not just the symptoms.
What Is It?
More Than Hands-On Treatment
Myotherapy is a comprehensive assessment and treatment approach for musculoskeletal pain and movement dysfunction. It combines hands-on therapy with techniques such as dry needling, rehabilitation exercises, movement strategies, cupping, and taping to help relieve pain, restore movement, and support long-term recovery.
Unlike Remedial Massage, Myotherapy takes a more clinical assessment approach, identifying the contributing factors behind your pain and creating a personalised treatment plan that addresses the underlying cause—not just the symptoms.
