Muscular Therapy Treatments

Each treatment will have a a blend of techniques from many massage modalities.   With that, most sessions cannot be categorized into only one of the treatment examples below.


NeuroKineticTherapy®

When a muscle fails to function properly for whatever reason (trauma, repetitive stress injury, scars for example) the brain reroutes the signal to another muscle or, more likely, set of muscles to get the job done.  This often results in pain and discomfort.  NKT is a  process of testing the body’s neurological signaling to determine where the rerouting is occurring.  Once determined, it is possible to reset the signal and return function and balance.  

As with anything related to the body, client participation is imperative for the healing process.  In my office I will test and treat the tissue.  At home, you will have specific self care assignments to ensure lasting results.
 

​Treatments are designed to bring the entire body gently into balance, and address both the main complaint as well as any underlying musculoskeletal and energetic imbalances that are preventing healing and limiting optimal health. Through the skilled use of disposable needles and  variety of techniques in combination with magnetic-light-laser therapy your pain and other symptoms can be resolved and replaced by flexibility, strength, and a renewed sense of wellbeing.

Magnet-Light-Laser Therapy

Widely used in modern medicine natural, a combination of therapeutic factors: magnet field, infra-red light, and low laser beam. Laser beam and infra-red rays penetrate the skin at certain wavelength for a specific time at set intervals. So that the damaged cells are exposed to the healing stimulation of the light. This painless stimulation increases the supply of blood to the affected areas, and improves metabolic process in cells and tissues. Therefore, the result of combining Acupuncture with Laser therapy is quite progressive, as patients experience relief from pain and decrease of inflammation during the procedure. In addition, the use of laser therapy allows for needless acupuncture, where acupuncture points are painlessly stimulated without puncturing the skin
