Exploring Neuromuscular Therapy
Neuromuscular therapy is a targeted soft tissue manipulation technique addressing chronic pain stemming from the muscular and nervous systems. This specialized deep tissue massage employs digital pressure and friction to release tense muscle areas called tender or trigger points, known to induce muscle pain. The therapy effectively treats various conditions, offering relief from muscle spasms, enhanced circulation, and reduced inflammation.

Neuromuscular Therapy for Five Elements
-
Ischemia: Reduced blood flow to soft tissues causing heightened touch sensitivity.
-
Trigger points: Highly sensitive muscle spots inducing remote pain.
-
Nerve compression or entrapment: Nerve pressure from soft tissue, cartilage, or bone.
-
Postural distortion: Muscular imbalance due to misalignment with longitudinal and horizontal planes.
-
Biomechanical dysfunction: Musculoskeletal imbalance causing flawed movement patterns (e.g., improper lifting, incorrect sports mechanics, prolonged computer typing).
