Neuromuscular Therapy
Neuromuscular Therapy is a system of soft tissue manipulation techniques that seek to balance the central nervous system with the structure and the form of the musculo-skeletal system. NMT is based on neurological law that explains how the central nervous system maintains homeostatic balance. These same laws dictate how the central nervous system initiates & perpetuates pain response and controls the musculoskeletal system.
In the most simple terms the body can refer pain far away from the root cause of the pain. Because of this the symptom of a problem is often treated instead of the underlying cause. When working with neuromuscular therapy, the body is looked at as a single unit rather than in parts. Your stance and gait are analyzed to determine the cause or source of a problem and the body’s method of compensating for the injury. It is an amazing way to return to health by encouraging the body to relax back into design posture.
The Initial Session is scheduled for 90 minutes. It includes a comprehensive evaluation in which I will measures various structures of the body to note postural distortions or biomechanical dysfunction that may be causing pain. We further examine muscles and soft tissue by palpation to determine if there are problems caused by a lack of circulation, trigger points, and nerve compression or entrapment. A one hour neuromuscular therapy session follows the evaluation.
