Remedial Massage Treatment
Students will continue to build upon their Soft Tissue Massage skills and techniques by learning assessment knowledge by body region. A treatment will include subjective assessment questions, Global Posture assessment, body region active/passive/resistive range of movement and Special Tests. From this information they will then put together a Client consented, and Supervisor approved treatment plan. The treatment itself could include those techniques used in the Soft Tissue Treatment as well as assisted stretching techniques, cupping, thermotherapy, triggerpoint therapy, and myofascial tension technique. This service is available from Semester Two and Semester Three students of the Diploma of Remedial Massage
Myotherapy Treatment

Within a Myotherapy treatment, students will apply a range of techniques which could include myofascial dry needling, cupping, corrective exercises rehabilitation, massage techniques and joint mobilisation (not to be confused with joint manipulation). The student clinicians will contextualise subjective and objective information into clinical reasoning and problem solving to produce a client consented and Supervisor approved treatment plan.
