"I have a history of neck problems from working on computers. Recently I slept with my neck exposed to the cold, resulting in a flare up of my old neck injury. I was unable to move my neck or head without severe pain and tablets did not help. Despite stretching, applied heat and sleep the pain continued on for a week, at which point I sought help from Lena at inner outer health. She worked on my shoulders, neck and back, providing immediate relief and the following morning I was able to get out of bed with ease. After one, more follow up visit and attending to the exercises Lena provided I was mobile and free of pain again.

I find Lena caring, skilful and thorough – I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her services to anyone suffering from acute or chronic pain."

"I was highly recommended to Lena Yammine through a work colleague.  This has turned out to be one of the best recommendations I have ever received.

After many years of constant muscle and joint stiffness and fatigue and consultations with varied tactile therapists I have finally found relief.

After my first consultation, the results were quite amazing.  All stiffness and fatigue has virtually disappeared and now I am able to focus on my posture and enjoy my daily activities with great pleasure.

I continue my sessions with Lena purely as a preventative; her professionalism and attention to detail are quite outstanding. Thank you Lena."

"In 2006, I developed a temperomandibular dysfunction (TMJ) and have been treated by numerous health care providers since that time with very little effect. Several months ago, I was recommended to Lena.  The treatment she initiated allows me to now open my mouth to 35mm, compared to 25 mm when treatment was commenced. I have had a reduction in the number of headaches and am enjoying the benefits of being able to move my jaw freely (for example, eating apples).

Thank you Lena!  I am thrilled with the results".

"I have for many years suffered from neck and back pain and frequent headaches.

After much frustration and trying many different treatments, I have found regular Myotherapy to be the best way to manage what had become a chronic problem.

Since commencing treatment, I have had a significant reduction in the frequency and severity of my headaches as well as an overall improvement in the way my neck and back feels on a day-to-day basis." 

"I first sought treatment from Lena Yammine of inner outer health because of chronic pain in my left hip.  This had deteriorated to the point where I could only walk for 20 to 30 meters before needing to rest for 5 to 10 minutes until the level of pain subsided enough for me to continue.

On my fist visit, Lena did a careful assessment, and diagnosed Bursitis.  The treatment consisted primarily of targeted intensive massage, together with specific stretching exercises that I did between treatments.

I got some relief after the first treatment, and my symptoms improved, and ultimately completely disappeared over a course of five weekly treatments.

I now visit inner outer health for a maintenance treatment once a month.  I have no hesitation in recommending Myotherapy, and in particular, Lena Yammine at inner outer health."

"When I first went to Inner Outer Health I was unsure as to what benefits I would get.  I hoped the treatments would help my lower back pain and headaches, but what I didn’t expect was through the thorough consultations I not only got relief in my lower back and head but I also started to experience relief from my debilitating asthma which has plagued me for the last two years.  I am able to reduce my medication immediately after myotherapy treatment, and have been able to reduce my overall medication on an ongoing basis."

I cannot express in words how wonderful inner outer health is.  The individual care, professionalism, follow up and passion for what they do means they stand out from any other health care practitioners I have been too."

"I went to “inner outer health” after suffering lower back pain for a number of months. I had gotten to the point where even turning in bed caused me pain and so I had started to suffer from having a broken sleep every night. After only one session, I felt an enormous difference in my pain and stiffness levels. I have had four treatments to date, and on Lena’s recommendation, also started seeing an osteopath. I now sleep through the night, and have had only occasional moments of back pain, which are much reduced in intensity and duration. I will continue to have ongoing treatment, as required, to prevent ever going back to the way I was before I started."

"Having two small children wanting to be carried and a niggling injury from a number of years ago, Lena has been able to target and effectively treat the areas that cause me trouble.  I would highly recommend her."

"I found out about myotherapy in Sydney and when I moved down to Melbourne, I wanted to find a myotherapist in my local area. That is how I came across inner outer health. From the initial consultation Lena made me feel comfortable and was very thorough in her examination, she seemed to know what she was doing and that prompted me to come back. I had weekly treatments as I had constant headaches due to tightness in my neck and shoulders. Once the pain had reduced I only needed treatment once, a fortnight and I now attend the clinic once a month for maintenance. Lena also gave me home exercises to do to improve my flexibility and gave me suggestions on what pillow to use to help my neck during sleeping.

There are few practitioners, who really care about helping their patients to be pain free and not just to make money and I found that at inner outer health."

"Myotherapy has enabled me to achieve both pain and stress relief. Lena has taught me how to banish and manage the pain I was experiencing in the back, shoulders and neck. Her treatment involves a developing knowledge of the client alongside her skilled deep tissue treatment. Recently I was given the official diagnosis of fybromyalgia and I have experience immediate and ongoing relieve of all pain associated with the neck, shoulders, back arms, wrist and hands. My GP is very happy with how myotherapy has worked and is encouraging the treatment. I enjoy Lena’s friendly and intuitive interview before appointment begin and sometimes I actually fall asleep during the myotherapy treatment. After a treatment, I feel wonderful and I am pain free and a lot less tense. I feel very fortunate to have discovered the benefits of the myotherapy, both physical and psychological. I would recommend it to anyone for pain management as well as deep relaxation."

"Myotherapy is my ‘miracle cure’!! At 25 years of age and suffering from chronic back, shoulder, feet and knee pain for years, I had tried chiropractic treatment, physiotherapy, remedial massage, osteopathy and acupuncture. I found these treatments to provide only short-term relief, so I kept searching for something, which would enable me to be pain free. Further research led me to discover Myotherapy. I was amazed by the prospect of a treatment, which could increase blood flow, restore mobility and assist in the prevention of muscular injuries and pain. Somewhat sceptical, and thinking it must be ‘too good to be true’ I decided to contact inner outer health for an initial consultation. Lena Yammine takes a considerable interest in every one of her clients and has impressed me beyond belief from day one with her knowledge of the body and the role every muscle, tendon, ligament and bone plays. After three months of treatment with Lena, Myotherapy has changed my life for the better, and provided me with a real solution to achieve a better quality of life – a pain free life!!"

“With arthritic like hands that were beginning to curl and tender feet that barely supported my body first thing in the morning, the new injury to my arm brought more frustration than actual pain.

At 50 plus, I still wanted to keep my part time cleaning job for several more years but the likelihood seemed more remote as each year passed.

Exercising at the gym had been reduced to low impact classes only and I’d given up on my daily walks a year ago.

My handicraft work had ceased to exist and my latest found interest in the family tree looked like ending also as my arm injury kept flaring up after using the computer key board.

Fortunately for me, when the light at the end of the tunnel was beginning to fade, my girlfriend mentioned her success with her back after several visits to a Myotherapist.

A quick search of the internet brought me to inner outer health where Lena, a Myotherapist began to sort my problems out.

Lena worked on my injured arm and extended the work down to my hands, giving me some exercises to do at home using both my hands and arms.  The pain and inflammation slowly subsided and by the third visit I was able to knit more than two or three rows at a time, something I had not achieved for a long time.

On my fourth visit I decided to see what could be gained by having my feet attended to and was pleasantly surprised to find that a tender spot under my right foot, that no amount of cushioning could relieve, had totally disappeared.

I’m now going to keep up a maintenance program with my therapy so I can continue to do the things I enjoy.

I’m going to start my walks again an up my gym program and continue with my handcrafts.  How easy it is to forget that it was an arm injury that brought me here and the benefits I gained to my hands and feet was just a bonus.”
