Neuromuscular therapy is a specific approach to the problem of pain based on sound physiological principles and neurological laws. It reverses the stress-tension-pain cycle. Pressure specifically interrupts afferent impulses to the spinal cord, reduces the intensity of nervous activity within the tissue and mechanically forces out toxic irritants which have accumulated at nerve receptor sites. The muscle is then relaxed, circulation is increased, and the body returns to normal neuromuscular integrity and balance.
Integral to the treatment program is the observation of posture and gait patterns, and the discussion of daily habits that affect the body. In doing so, we seek to identify the causes of pain, rather than simply treat the symptoms. Because we recognize the importance of active involvement in becoming pain-free and achieving optimal physical health, a client will likely be given homework for maximum results.
