*Neuromuscular Reeducation℠ (NMR) is a hands on, movement based method of soft tissue bodywork that is very effective at reversing a broad range of painful conditions involving the musculoskeletal system. Pain and/or tight muscle spasms in regions of the neck, shoulder, back, hips, legs and arms are all areas of the body that respond positively 90+% of the time to NMR work.
NMR is also unsurpassed in improving flexibility and range of motion (ROM) of joints and other regions of the body.
Athletes as well as people from all walks of life experience greater relief from pain and improved physical performance as a result of NMR work.
How it Works
When an area of the body is injured, whether by acute trauma (sudden onset) or a buildup of micro trauma (as in “overuse” type injuries), the body heals the injury the only way it can: an inflammatory response followed by the laying down of a less elastic second grade, poorly vascularized scar tissue. The scar tissue and adhesions that form cause pain and limit both flexibility and strength. And when muscles and related connective tissues (fascia, tendons, ligaments, ect) are involved, the body is forced to “rewire” the complex, sophisticated manner in which specific muscle fibers are recruited to execute movements. Movements that require considerable strength, skill and stamina suffer the most but the movements involved with daily living are adversely affected as well.
As a skilled NMR practitioner, I use my hands to deliver sufficient pressure to an affected part of the body to free up and, in effect, remove adhesions. In the process muscle fibers that may be in spasm are allowed to relax into a more normal state as well. In most cases the body part or region being worked on is moved in a specific manner to facilitate the most complete release of adhesions/scar tissue.
Results are almost always immediate and lasting. Most of the issues I encounter reach a level of satisfactory improvement or resolution in about 2-5 sessions. If you contact me directly we can discuss your issues and I can give you a good idea ahead of time the number of sessions you’ll likely need.
NMR gets to the root of the problem. Real, long-term or permanent relief from pain, improved physical performance and a much greater overall quality of life are its hallmarks.
Try me. Just one session will probably convince you.
