Myotherapy - 25/10/2026
If you’ve got a tendon that settles when you rest and flares the moment you get going again, it’s ready for a plan that does more than rest.
You’re in safe hands with our myotherapists. They assess what’s overloading the tendon, treat the tight muscles around it at a pressure that calms things down rather than stirring them up, and build the right amount of load back in at the right time. With a tendon, the plan matters as much as the treatment.

Tendons get sore when they’re asked to do more than they’re ready for, often after a jump in running, a new sport, or a busy stretch of lifting and carrying. Complete rest takes the edge off, but a tendon that’s never loaded again stays weak, which is why the pain comes straight back.
Your myotherapist starts by working out which tendon is involved and what’s been overloading it, then treats the tight calves, forearms or hips adding to the strain. The important part is the plan: a few strengthening exercises that start easy and build week by week, and honest guidance on what to keep doing and what to ease back on while it settles.
Our myotherapists also treat neck pain, headaches, shoulder and back pain. You’ll find all of it on our page for myotherapy at Yarraville.
At All for One, myotherapy sits beside our physio and Clinical Pilates teams, so for a tendon the strengthening side is covered as well as the hands-on side, by people who talk to each other.
“Great insight on techniques and what to expect.”
Client review, Momence 2026
Our myotherapists treat runners and weekend players alongside people whose pain comes from long days at a desk. Along with hands-on work, treatment can include dry needling, cupping and joint mobilisation, and if a tendon would be better off with a physio, they’ll tell you so.
A remedial massage is ideal when muscles are tight and you want them loosened. Myotherapy is the better fit when pain has a pattern, like a tendon that flares with every run or a back that goes every few months, because it looks for the reason. If you’d still like help deciding, read our article on myotherapy versus remedial massage, or see our Yarraville massage page for a straightforward massage.
It can help a lot. Treatment eases the muscles adding strain to the tendon, and the loading exercises you’re given are what help the tendon itself recover. Most tendon problems improve over weeks rather than days, and your myotherapist will tell you what to expect.
Often, with some changes. Your myotherapist will help you work out how much you can do without making it worse, which is usually better for a tendon than stopping completely.
Myotherapy costs $149 for 60 minutes. If it’s on your extras cover, we’ll claim it through HICAPS on the day and you pay only the gap.
Sometimes, on the tight muscles around a sore tendon rather than the tendon itself. Your myotherapist will explain what they’d suggest and why, and whether you try it is always your choice.
We’re at 13 Campbell Street, Yarraville, an easy drive from Newport, with free parking on site. Yarraville is also two stops up the line from Newport station if you’d rather catch the train.
Yes, if the pain shows up when you run, so your myotherapist can see how you move in them.
