Myotherapists assess and treat the connective tissue (muscle, tendons, ligaments, joint capsules, tissue coverings) using mostly direct 'hands-on' techniques, such as MyoFascial Release, Trigger Point Release, Joint Mobilisation, MET - Muscle Energy Techniques and methods of stretching. However Myotherapists are also trained in the use of Trigger Point Dry Needling, MyoFascial Cupping, TENS Machines, rehabilitation aids, taping, and exercise prescription.
