Myotherapy in Miners Rest
Miners Rest is a semi rural community on the northern edge of Ballarat, and our clinic is a comfortable drive south into central Ballarat. For locals who spend a lot of time in the car, on the land or on tools, having a regular myotherapist is often the difference between working through pain and moving well.
The lives behind the pain we see.
Farming, trades, transport and outdoor labour all put load through the low back, shoulders and hips in ways that a weekly stretch cannot really keep up with.
Long commutes into Ballarat add to that load, especially through the hips and lower back after a full day of driving.
We also treat plenty of older locals for arthritic joint pain and reduced mobility, and families dealing with the usual mix of parenting, sport and desk work.
The techniques that come up most for Miners Rest clients.
Myotherapy is a good match because we treat bodies that get worked hard for a living. Sessions focus on unloading the overworked areas and giving you a short, realistic plan that fits into your week rather than one that adds to it.

What to expect when you come in.
Your first appointment includes a proper assessment and honest advice about what is going on.
Treatment is focused and firm where it needs to be, chosen for a body that gets worked hard for a living.
You leave with a small set of practical things to do at home that fit into your week rather than adding to it.
I would be lost without the care and knowledge the team have about the human body.
