In-Home Pain Management
Why accommodate pain when you could age with strength?
Service Description
Experience restored muscular control, increased joint range of motion, improved posture, stability and coordination in as little as one session. You'll have homework to do! This isn't an adjustment, it's a movement prescription. Because diaphragm dysfunction is a commonly undiagnosed contributor to a very long list of troubling and uncomfortable symptoms, and because it's treatment is free, easy, quick, noninvasive, and has zero risk and very high efficacy yield, I begin every treatment with a manual diaphragm release - a massage for your most powerful breathing muscle. With tension dumped, your inhale more expansive and the nervous system in a calm, down-regulated state, I'll teach you how to intentionally activate intrinsic core muscles in a series of progressed postures designed to optimize your neurological coordination. Once intrinsic core function is optimized, we can move onto finding the more localized source of your pain through neurological muscle testing. Muscle fibres can be turned on and off like light switches - signals from the brain are electrical impulses. The brain's goal is to keep the body moving forward, so if an injury, poor posture, a repetitive motion or old scar is inhibiting the function of a movement, the brain will turn off the signal to the ineffective bundle of fibres and recruit a protagonist or antagonist muscle to make the movement happen. This is a "compensation pattern". Testing reveals which fibres are neurologically inhibited and which are facilitated. Active and passive therapeutic release techniques, isometric muscular activations and dynamic movement sequences are used in a specific order to correct and restore the firing pathways from the nervous system to muscles. This movement prescription is your homework. Only by consistently doing the work until patterns are cleared, are we able to see if there are more layers of dysfunction causing symptoms. This is the purpose of the pain management package being structured in 4, 45min sessions - a symptom that conspired in weeks months or years can't be corrected indefinitely in a single treatment.
