Ashleigh Canty is a myotherapist based in Byron Bay, NSW, with her practice at Byron Bay NSW 2481.
Myotherapy is about helping the body feel better and move more freely. Ashleigh’s work focuses on things like massage therapy, stretching exercises, and using heat and cold therapy when it helps. She also includes postural education, which can be handy for everyday aches that build up over time.
In many cases, people see a myotherapist for tight muscles, sore backs, stiff hips, or general discomfort that affects work, walking, or sleep. At times it can also come from posture habits, long days sitting, or getting back into movement after a break. Ashleigh looks at how you’re moving and what feels tight or niggly, then works out a plan for the session and what to try between visits.
The approach is practical. Sessions usually combine hands-on care with movement work, so you’re not only getting relief, but also support to keep improving. Stretching exercises and postural education can be simple and realistic, not something overly complicated. Heat and cold therapy may be used to help settle discomfort and support recovery after flare-ups.
Because everyone’s body is different, care is based on what’s going on for you. If a muscle feels guarded, the plan may shift to focus on gentle release and comfort first. If stiffness is the main issue, it often helps to add targeted stretching and some postural checks. Over time, people often notice they’re moving easier, and they can handle day-to-day activities with less strain.
