As a myotherapist at Mornington Peninsula Myotherapy and Massage, I often see clients who spend long hours sitting or standing in one position. Whether it's at a desk or on a factory floor, these types of activities can place a lot of strain on your muscles and joints, leading to pain and discomfort. Fortunately for you, myotherapy can help.
Myotherapy is a form of physical therapy that focuses on the assessment, treatment and prevention of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. It involves using a range of different techniques including massage, stretching, and joint mobilisation, to alleviate pain, improve muscle function and prevent future injuries.
For people who spend a lot of time sitting or standing in one position, myotherapy can be especially effective. By targeting specific muscles and joints, myotherapy can alleviate pain and tension, improve posture and increase mobility and flexibility. Myotherapy can also help prevent future injuries by identifying and addressing imbalances in the body's musculoskeletal system.
In addition to the physical benefits, myotherapy can also help improve mental health. Chronic pain can be mentally exhausting, leading to stress, anxiety, and depression. By relieving pain and tension, myotherapy can help improve overall mood and wellbeing.
If you're experiencing pain or discomfort due to prolonged sitting or standing, myotherapy may be able to help. To find a qualified myotherapist in your area, check out professional associations such as the Australian Natural Therapists Association and the Myotherapy Association Australia. You can also search for myotherapy practitioners on healthcare directories such as HealthEngine and Healthshare. Alternatively, give us a call at Mornington Peninsula Myotherapy and Massage.
