Your Professional  Massage Therapist - Los Angeles, CA

The neuromuscular technique is a highly specialized form of medical massage therapy that requires in-depth knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the body. Therapists who practice this technique must thoroughly understand the fascia, muscles, connective tissues, nervous system, skeletal system, muscle tension, and other key systems and how they interact.

During a neuromuscular therapy session, therapists will typically perform a comprehensive assessment of the client's condition to determine the most effective approach for managing pain through massage therapy. They will then use manual techniques such as neuromuscular therapy and trigger-point therapy to provide relief.

In addition to hands-on massage therapy, the session may include stretching and strengthening exercises to help the client regain mobility and alleviate pain.

Neuromuscular Therapists also often collaborate with other healthcare professionals to ensure the client's rehabilitation process is comprehensive and practical.

To help clients better understand their bodies and how to manage pain, the therapist will also educate them about their condition and strategies for avoiding behaviors that can trigger pain. The hands-on aspect of neuromuscular therapy involves four key elements: assessment, positional release, palpation skills, and PNF stretch.
