Relieve Chronic Pain, Reduce Anxiety & Increase Range of Motion
NeuroMuscular Therapy in Oakland, CA: NeuroMuscular Therapy is a form of soft tissue manipulation with the focus on treating the underlying causes of chronic pain involving the muscular and nervous systems.
What is NeuroKinetic Therapy?
NeuroKinetic Therapy is based on the premise that when an injury occurs, certain muscles “shut down” or become inhibited, forcing other muscles to become overworked. This compensation pattern can create pain or tightness.
How do NeuroMuscular Therapy and NeuroKinetic Therapy work together?
Each session starts with NeuroKinetic Therapy and begins with a series of manual muscle testing to identify the muscles that are weak or strong. This information provides the possible relational compensation between the affected muscles. Once the practitioner has evaluated and finds the strength and/or weakness of each muscle, the source of the injury or pain are revealed. NeuroMuscular Therapy is then incorporated to ‘re- educate’ the overworked tense muscles by applying a series of therapeutic techniques.
These therapeutic techniques address:
- Injuries caused post car accidents
- Low back pain
- Neck compression
- TMJ
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Frozen Shoulder
- Tennis Elbows
- Golfer’s Elbow
- Runner’s Knee
- Anterior/Posterior Pelvic Tilt
- Hip Compression
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Bursitis
- Tendonitis
- Poor Posture
- Trigger Points
- Nerve Compression
- Biomechanical (due to repetitive movement)
