What We Treat at Logan Myotherapy

Some of the most common types of body pain can be successfully treated in our clinic in Holmview, Logan City.

Headaches and Migraines

Tight muscles in the neck, shoulders, or jaw are a common cause of headaches and migraines. Myotherapy helps by releasing these tight areas, improving posture, and reducing the frequency and intensity of headaches.

• Tension headaches: Often caused by muscle strain in the neck and shoulders.
• Neck-related headaches: Pain that starts in the neck and radiates to the head can be eased by treating the underlying muscle tension and joint stiffness.
• Migraines: If you have been diagnosed with migraines, you will still benefit from treatment. Tight neck and shoulder muscles often make migraines more frequent and painful. By treating these areas, many of our clients notice fewer and less intense migraine attacks.

Neck Pain

Neck pain can develop from poor posture, stress, whiplash, or long hours at the computer or phone. We use targeted techniques like dry needling, active release and stretching to reduce tension, improve movement, and restore comfort.

Common causes we treat:

• Posture pain from phones and computers
• Muscle strain or stiffness
• Whiplash or tension-related neck pain

Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain can make daily movement difficult – from reaching overhead to sleeping comfortably. We help reduce inflammation, restore mobility, and relieve pain from conditions such as:

• Rotator cuff injuries
• Bursitis or tendon irritation
• Frozen shoulder (stiff and painful shoulder joints)

Back Pain

Back pain is one of the most common reasons people come to see us. Whether it’s from poor posture, lifting, or long-term tightness, myotherapy helps by easing tension, improving alignment, and supporting your body’s recovery.

We commonly treat:

• Lower back pain from strain or posture
• Mid or upper back tension
• Back pain linked to disc irritation (sciatica)

Muscle Tension and Knots

Tight or “knotted” muscles can cause pain that spreads to other areas such as headaches or shoulder and back pain. We use dry needling and hands-on therapy to release these trigger points, helping muscles relax and move freely again.

Sports Injuries

Whether you’re an athlete, gym-goer, or weekend warrior, myotherapy helps you recover faster and stay injury-free. We can assist with:

• Muscle strains and ligament sprains
• Tennis or golfer’s elbow
• Runner’s knee
• Overuse or repetitive strain injuries

Work & Postural Pain

Spending long hours sitting or standing can lead to back, neck, and shoulder tension. We identify and treat the affected muscles, improve your posture, and teach simple ways to prevent pain from returning.

We also provide relief for people with spinal curve conditions such as scoliosis or kyphosis, which can cause ongoing muscle tightness.

Nerve Pain (Including Sciatica)

When muscles press on or irritate nerves, it can cause pain that travels down the arms or legs. Dry needling and stretching can help release pressure and calm nerve irritation, making movement easier and reducing discomfort.

Joint Pain and Arthritis

Myotherapy helps manage pain and stiffness linked to arthritis and other joint issues by easing muscle tension around affected areas. While it’s not a cure, it can make everyday movement more comfortable and improve flexibility.

Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSIs)

Typing, manual work, or repetitive motions can cause ongoing pain in the hands, arms, or shoulders. We treat the tight muscles and tissues involved, reducing strain and helping you move more comfortably at work or home.
