Advanced Diploma of Remedial Massage (Myotherapy) |
|
The Advanced Diploma of Remedial Massage (Myotherapy) builds on and enhances learning from the Diploma of Remedial Massage. Myotherapy focuses on the treatment and management of musculoskeletal pain. This involves an extensive physical evaluation and an integrated therapeutic approach to affected muscles, joints, nerves, and associated viscera (organs) and is used in the treatment of acute or chronic conditions and in the area of preventative management.
Myotherapists take into account all aspects of health and wellness to treat patients from a completely holistic perspective - this includes not only physical, but psychological, emotional and spiritual aspects of the individual.
Myotherapists are highly trained manual therapy professionals, widely recognised in the healthcare community as leaders in the field of myofascial pain and dysfunction (pain that arises from the muscles and surrounding connective issue.)
Myotherapists are widely acknowledged for their skills assessing, treating and managing myofascial pain syndromes.
