Neuromuscular Therapy

Neuromuscular Therapy balances the body's central nervous system with the musculoskelatal system by using soft-tissue manipulation. The goal of neuromuscular therapy is to relieve pain and dysfunction by understanding the underlying cause. The needed-pressure for this type of massage is usually applied with the fingers, knuckles, or elbows. During the massage, the amount of pressure you are being given might feel painful, but it is necessary to help alleviate the muscle spasms that you are experiencing. However, it is important to communicate with your massage therapist regarding the level of pressure—too much, too little, better, worse. The massage should never be overly painful. Following neuromuscular therapy, any soreness that presents itself will generally fade after twenty-four to thirty-six hours.
