Neuromuscular Therapy [NMT] is a precise system of soft tissue therapy that can
relieve acute and chronic sports / work-related injury. Its foundation of anatomical
knowledge allows the therapist to see and measure imbalance in the body, so the
exact cause of injury can be easily located. Then the appropriate therapeutic technique
can be used to release the injured area. This makes for an effective and lasting
treatment.
It is very beneficial for: carpal tunnel syndrome, thoracic outlet syndrome, repetitive
strain injuries, rotator cuff injury, frozen shoulder, sciatica, scoliosis, torticollis,
whiplash, TMJ dysfunction, hip pain, shoulder pain, neck pain, back pain.
NMT incorporates:
Posture / Gait Analysis – to diagnose the imbalance and provide a direction to the
treatment.
Segmental Neuropathy – to create structural homeostasis (balance) in the body by
releasing the neurological segments.
Trigger Point Myotherapy – to release restrictions in the soft tissues that can
refer pain to other places in the body. Muscle tension headaches are an example
of pain commonly caused by trigger points that are often located in the neck or
shoulders.
Myofascial Release – to release restrictions in the fascia (connective tissue) that
inhibit proper soft tissue function and movement.
Therapeutic Stretching / Exercise – to further rehabilitation and give the client
tools to maintain their health (home program).
Biomechanical & Ergonomic Evaluation – to determine dysfunctional movement and work
equipment that stress the body and are often the source of health problems.
NMT / SomaBodywork is $150 per hour.
Outcalls are $300 for the first hour, $200 for successive hours.
