Neuromuscular Therapy sometimes referred to as clinical massage or medical massage – is an effective and well-recognized means of providing relief from muscular pain and bursitis.
Many health-related conditions and sports, automobile and work-related injuries respond well to this form of therapeutic massage, including:
-
Low back pain
-
Sciatica
-
Headaches
-
Neck & shoulder pain
-
Frozen shoulder
-
Carpal tunnel syndrome
-
Sprains & strains
-
Shin splints
-
Iliotibial band syndrome
-
Runner's knee
-
Myofascial pain syndrome
At Robledo Medical & Wellness Center, we are certified in Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT). The features of NMT are:
-
Skilled assessment - identifying the source of the pain.
-
Precise treatment - creating a session based on your specific needs.
-
Results - using benchmarks and measurements which enable you to see progress in a short time.
While the goal of massage is often relaxation, the goal of Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT) is to identify muscular imbalances, eliminate muscular pain and discomfort.
NMT sessions frequently begin using assessment techniques that include postural analysis, orthopedic evaluation and other tests to help identify the most likely causes and contributing factors involved in the muscular discomfort.
Unlike relaxation-oriented massages where you are able to "drift off" during the session, NMT sessions may require your active participation, as your input and feedback are critical to uncovering the source of the problem.
Neuromuscular Therapy - massage may be covered by your PPO plan.
Conditions that took months or years to develop will not likely go away in one session. At Robledo Medical & Wellness Center, we strive to achieve measurable improvement after three to five sessions, although the total number and length of sessions will vary depending on each individual's response and condition.
