myoActivation Explained
For people experiencing chronic pain and myofascial dysfunction.

Chronic pain affects 1 in 5, disrupting everything from work to relationships and often pulling people into cycles of isolation and limited mobility. Treatment options are often hard to access and may involve heavy medications with mixed results. As medical understanding of the myofascial system grows—a complex network of muscles, connective tissues, and sensory pathways in your body—new ways to treat chronic pain come to light. myoActivation is one such innovative treatment that targets scars, tense muscles, and distortions in fascial tissue to relieve pain, often faster than traditional methods. This accessible guide is for myoActivation patients and anyone curious about this approach. It explains: • What myoActivation is and who it can help • How it can help relieve chronic pain • What to expect as a patient and how to prepare • Tips for maintaining results and avoiding re-injury • Extra guidance for patients with other health considerations • Further resources for learning and support As one patient put it, “You have nothing to lose but your aches!”
Dr. Liesl Roome is the owner and medical director of the myoClinic Brentwood Bay and has been treating patients with myoActivation since 2018. As a faculty member and myoActivation instructor with the Anatomic Medicine Foundation, she has trained healthcare professionals in this therapy from all over British Columbia. Dr Roome would like to thank Dr Gillian Lauder and NP Barb Eddy for the chapters they contributed and as well as everyone who helped refine the text. Dr. Roome lives on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, with her three children and their small menagerie of pets.
