Myotherapy in Buninyong
Buninyong is a historic village just south of Ballarat with a strong outdoor culture, and our clinic is a comfortable drive north into central Ballarat. That makes it realistic to see the same myotherapist regularly even if you are training seriously.
The lives behind the pain we see.
Road cyclists using the climbs around Mount Buninyong make up a real part of the caseload here, and the pain patterns tell the story. Tight hip flexors and quads, sore lower backs from long hours in the saddle, stiff necks from looking up over the bars and grumpy shoulders from bracing on the hoods.
Runners come in with calf, achilles and hamstring issues that show up when weekly kilometres creep up faster than the body can adapt.
We treat plenty of older locals through the Buninyong area as well, for joint pain and the general stiffness that starts to limit what you comfortably do day to day.
The techniques that come up most for Buninyong clients.
Myotherapy suits endurance athletes because it does more than just release tissue. We can help you understand which parts of your training and setup are loading the wrong areas, and give you targeted work to build resilience in the right places.

What to expect when you come in.
Your first appointment focuses on your training, your goals and your history under load.
Treatment can include focused hands on work, dry needling and structured stretching, chosen for the demands of your sport.
You leave with rehab or prehab work that fits into your program rather than adding to it.
After only 4 visits I have made so much progress. Thank you Arielle for all you are doing for me.
