Our approach
How we think about pain.
01
Pain is not the problem. It is a signal.
Chronic pain rewires your nervous system. It changes how your brain processes movement, threat and sensation. It limits your capacity. It narrows your world. Our role is to understand what is driving it and address it at its source.
02
Short-term fixes do not create long-term results.
Sustainable outcomes come from understanding movement, correcting biomechanics, building strength and stability, and addressing the root cause rather than just the symptoms.
03
These are not pain management tools. They are nervous system resets.
Myotherapy, dry needling, manual lymphatic drainage and physiotherapy restore muscle length, reactivate correct firing patterns, reduce central sensitisation and give your brain permission to move without fear.
04
Good care shouldn't be hard to get.
We started MyoFitness in 2021 to fill a gap we saw in healthcare. Good treatment shouldn't be hard to access or a hole in your pocket. Our clinics pair myotherapy and remedial massage with physiotherapy, psychology, lymphatic drainage and dry needling, so we can treat the whole person.
The evidence
The science is clear. The outcomes are measurable.
85%
of chronic pain involves myofascial trigger points.
78%
of headaches are muscular in origin.
These are not structural problems you live with. These are neuromuscular problems we can address.
The founder
Elizabeth Ruach
Founder & CEO · Myotherapist & Personal Trainer
Elizabeth opened MyoFitness in 2021, right as everyone was finding their feet again after Covid. It wasn't the obvious time to start a health clinic. But the need was hard to ignore. A lot of people were hurting, and too many of them were trying to get through it on their own.
She came to this through a lifelong love of health, fitness and athletics, and has worked with all sorts of people, from everyday clients to elite athletes. One idea stuck with her the whole way: no one should have to live in pain, and good care shouldn't be hard to get.
“Chronic pain has the potential to strip away our quality of life, but nothing deserves to take away our happiness.”
