MARK DAY - REMEDIAL MASSAGE & MYOTHERAPY

Mark Day graduated from R.M.I.T in 2007 with a Diploma in Remedial Massage and an Advanced Diploma in Myotherapy 2008.  Mark has over 8 years of clinical experience treating common myofascial pain syndromes caused by trigger points.

What is Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy?
Myofascial trigger points (commonly known as knots) are the most common cause of tight, aching and weak muscles. Healthy muscles don’t have trigger points in them. You develop them by overloading muscles (Heavy lifting), quick jerk (Whiplash), Frequent lifting  (Lifting your Kids), tensing muscles (Stress), postural stress (Desk work), or by fatiguing muscles (Scrubbing / cleaning).

Remedial Massage & Myotherapy frequently gets rid of trigger points. If the ‘knots’ are stubborn, massage ‘calms’ the trigger point pain and stiffness but doesn’t actually get rid of the trigger point. This may be enough relief for the patient but if not, the best method of getting rid of stubborn trigger points is dry needling of the trigger point.

​TESTIMONIALS

"Mark is always so helpful and informative. I never feel rushed and he is always on time which is a massive bonus! I always look forward to my visits with Mark. I have a very active job so I try and go to mark once a month/6 weeks to keep on top of everything!" - Brittany, 25/05/24

"Mark provides me with a lot of relief from neck and shoulder pain, and has suggested needling to get to the root cause of the issue. I have had many physio sessions that don't come close to helping me with the headaches, neck and shoulder pain I experience. Mark is friendly, professional and kind and I have been recommending him to family and friends." - Michelle, 27/01/24

"Mark always listens to my concerns, delivers effective treatment that alleviates my pain, and doesn't book in sessions unnecessarily, aiming to extend out my treatment. He keeps me functioning!" - Danica, 26/06/23

"I love my sessions with Mark....he's so knowledgeable and always makes a huge difference to my weekly training recovery or prep. So grateful to have found him!" - Tara, 20/04/23
