Neuromuscular Therapy
Understanding the nervous system and neuromuscular therapy (NMT)
Neuromuscular Therapy helps improve the communication between your brain, nerves, and muscles.
When you're in pain or after an injury, your muscles may not activate properly, become overly tight, or compensate for weaker muscles. Through specific exercises, hands-on techniques, and movement training, we help your body "relearn" healthy movement patterns so you can move with less pain and greater confidence.
Your nervous system is like the body's electrical wiring. It tells your muscles when to contract, relax, and stabilize your joints. Pain, injury, surgery, or poor movement habits can disrupt these signals. Neuromuscular therapy uses targeted exercises, balance training, coordination drills, and hands-on techniques to improve how your muscles work together, restoring strength, stability, and efficient movement.
Our Approach to Neuromuscular Therapy:
Thorough Assessment: Our trained Physical Therapists will evaluate your pain history to pinpoint the root cause of your pain.
Personalized Treatment Plan: They design a plan specifically aligned to your need that may include:
Our Physical Therapists utilize a variety of hands-on and active movement strategies to promote motor control
Manual Facilitation: Therapists physically guide the patient through the correct path of motion to help them feel the right form and muscle engagement.
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF): Stretches and resistance patterns designed to stimulate the nerves and improve muscle contraction and flexibility.
Balance and Core Exercises: Utilizing stability balls, wobble boards, or Bosu balls to improve spatial awareness (proprioception) and posture.
Repetitive Task Practice: Practicing daily, functional movements (like standing up, walking, or reaching) repeatedly to automate healthy biomechanics.
