unravel pain
experience the difference with myoActivation® by Alana DeClercq NP.
myoActivation® is a systematic needling technique that targets muscles, scars, and fascia in tension to improve pain, tightness, and mobility.
​
fascia can become injured or tight which can contribute to nerve pain, abnormal posture, and impaired mobility.
​
seemingly inconsequential scars from childhood injuries, surgery, and even chickenpox, can distort tissues deep underneath the skin, resulting in restriction and fascia that causes pain and stiffness.
​
myoActivation targets these scars and fascia, sometimes distant to where you feel pain to get you feeling your best.
the myo process
during your first appointment a lifetime injury history will be taken, including surgical history, and scars on your body. treatment will involve movement tests, palpation and needling. appointments are booked 1-2 weeks apart. plan for 3-4 sessions. some people may need more. wear comfortable clothing, preferably shorts. you may ask to remove your shirt and shoes during treatment. a sports bra is recommended. hollow bore needles are used (like you would get a vaccination with). the needle is NOT left in and no medication is injected. after treatment: reducing vigorous exercise for 2-3 days post-treatment is advised to prevent strain and allow tissues to heal. plan your appointments accordingly. risks vary considerably between persons and may include: bruising, minor bleeding at site of needling (common) nausea, dizziness, lightheadedness, post treatment fatigue and soreness for a few days pneumothorax if needling over lung fields (rare)
