Neuromuscular Therapy
Professional Massage Therapy
Neuromuscular therapy is a specialized form of manual therapy that focuses on treating trigger points in muscles, which are areas of hyperirritability that can cause pain and dysfunction. This technique involves applying pressure to these trigger points in order to release tension and improve blood flow to the affected muscles. By addressing these specific points of tension, neuromuscular therapy aims to restore proper function to the muscles and alleviate pain. During a session, the therapist will use their hands to locate and apply pressure to these trigger points, often using a combination of deep tissue massage and stretching techniques to release tension and improve mobility.
The benefits of neuromuscular therapy are numerous, including reduced pain and stiffness, improved range of motion, and increased flexibility. By targeting trigger points and releasing tension in the muscles, this technique can help to alleviate chronic pain conditions such as back pain, neck pain, and headaches. Additionally, neuromuscular therapy can help to improve posture and prevent future injuries by addressing imbalances in the muscles. Clients can expect to feel some discomfort during a session as the therapist works to release tension in the muscles, but this should be manageable and should not cause excessive pain. After a session, clients may experience some soreness as the muscles adjust to the release of tension, but this should subside within a day or two, leaving them feeling more relaxed and mobile.
