I am after an myotherapist to help me fix my wrist which has ongoing tendon inflammation/soft tissue damage/weakness.

Any one have any suggestions?

If none exist in Canberra, I am up for going to an ostheopath – or whoever will offer the most holistic and effectic treatment.

Recommendations for therapists and/or treatment will be extremely valued. I need it fixed!

I too would love to know if there’s a myotherapist in Canberra, but I suspect not. There are plenty of them in Geelong (because it’s close to Melbourne where they train), and they’re missing out a great opportunity by not starting up practice in Canberra. Myotherapy is the only thing that’s helped my chronic crook neck. (plug for you Angela Byrt if you ever Google yourself!) So if you know a myotherapist who’d like to move to the Can, give them a nudge. I’d be first in line to book an appointment!

I have been told by many people that the best osteopath in Canberra is a man at Swinger Hill. Apparently worked wonders with a few children 🙂

Adrian Rumore is an excellent physio, and I highly recommend him (he helped me to rehab a severe occupational overuse shoulder injury), but he’s not available back at work until June as far as I know.

I’d disagree – took someone there who had booked a consultation for a back injury. The osteo pretty much did a massage and completely missed the source of the problem! They also had someone there practising homeopathy, which is a real warning sign.

Give Adrian Rumore (in Kaleen) a call – he might be able to assist (and he isn’t a garden variety physio).

Canberra Osteo +1

Canberra City Osteopathy is excellent.

myotherapy/osteopathy are scams.

go to a real doctor who practices medicine.

I too could use a good hand-job.

I’m sure I could find you a link for that too. Would you like an evidence-based one?
