Neuromuscular Therapy

NEUROMUSCULAR THERAPY?


NMT treats the recovery from acute and chronic pain through specific massage therapy and flexibility stretching to eliminate the causes of most neuromuscular pain patterns. This specific approach to muscular pain relief will help to bring about balance between the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system. NMT enhances the function of joints, muscles and biomechanics (movement) and it releases endorphins, the body's own natural pain killers. Techniques used are:
  • Trigger points
  • Deep/soft tissue massage
  • Nerve entrapment/compression
  • Postural corrections
  • Nutrition
Holistic Life - sports injury centre uses Neuromuscular therapy as a very effective treatment for many clients.
