Sore, tight, aching muscles have a way of wearing you down. Whether it has crept in from long days at a desk, a heavy training week, poor sleep, or an old niggle that will not settle, muscle pain affects how you move, work and feel. Remedial massage and myotherapy are two of the most effective hands on ways to treat it, and if you are near Box Hill, our Surrey Hills clinic is only a short drive away.

At MyoFitness, muscle pain treatment is not just an hour of feeling good on the table. Our therapists assess where your pain is actually coming from, treat the muscles and trigger points driving it, and give you practical advice so the relief lasts well beyond your appointment.

What Causes Muscle Pain

Muscle pain, sometimes called myalgia, has many causes. Understanding what is behind yours is the first step to treating it properly rather than just chasing the symptom.

• Overuse and repetitive strain from work, training or daily tasks that load the same muscles again and again
• Postural tension, particularly through the neck, shoulders and upper back from long hours at a screen
• Trigger points, those tight, tender knots in a band of muscle that can refer pain to other areas
• Stress, which quietly builds tension into the muscles without us noticing
• Old injuries that never fully settled and left lingering tightness or guarding
• Deconditioning, where muscles become weak or stiff and are more easily overloaded
