What’s Neuromuscular Therapy?
Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT) is a series of treatments based on the experience a practitioner might have about anatomy and palpatory application. NMT doesn’t only treat the muscle because it also deals with the nervous system, and that’s where its name comes from. This type of massage differentiates itself from other massages because it involves the nervous system. For example, Deep Tissue massage only treats the tissue of the muscle. NMT is great for treating people with a large amount of pain because the direct pressure isn’t proper for relieving that amount of pain.
NMT works with different techniques. One of these techniques is Passive Positional Release (PPR). The practitioners work on the nerves such as proprioceptors and muscle spindle cells for a minute to release the tension that’s accumulated in there. PPR works for turning off the nerves that send a signal of pain to the brain. By using this technique, the practitioner can work and hard on the area to relieve the pain. It seems like this therapy has its similarities with Trigger Point Therapy and it’s. NMT also concentrates on trigger points. The practitioner uses Trigger Point Therapy is attacking one of the points that cause tension on the body. With NMT, the therapist eases the pain that the brain is feeling through several trigger points.
This therapy helps relieving chronic pain addressing five essential elements that cause the pain: Ischemia or the lack of blood flow that causes hypersensitivity. Nerve compression, meaning pressure on a cartilage or bone. NMT also addresses postural distortions that are caused due to poor postural positions and biomechanical dysfunction that can be caused due to bad lifting habits. And, as mentioned before, NMT also treats trigger points.
NMT is a great option for people who have tried diverse types of therapies and none have worked before. If you suffer from a chronic pain that’s making your life miserable, we completely recommend you this therapy.
