Manual Therapy

manual therapy sensory neuromuscular bod

Your body has millions of sensory nerves that communicate your every function and action.

​

Functional Soft Tissue Transformation (FSTT) harnesses the power of the nervous system to increase sensory and motor control, so you move more effectively without pain and dysfunction.

(And when combined with acupuncture and exercise the results are highly effective...)

How Functional Soft Tissue Transformation (FSTT) Helps

Stimulates Your Neuro-Muscular System

With pain and inflammation comes inhibition of neuromuscular control due to a reduction in sensory proprioceptive feedback. The nervous system responds to reduced neural “information” by restricting range of motion. This helps to ensure improved joint stability. By improving the sensory afferent feedback, the brain has better information and increases mobility and range of motion.

Improves Microcirculation

With many manual bodywork techniques we can relax “tense” or constricted muscle, which also restricts healthy blood flow through the tissues of the body. These techniques promote lymphatic drainage, reduces swelling, and helps to bring nutritious, oxygenated blood to injured tissues, and pull “old” blood away from affected areas of the body. This has a positive effect in creating an environment for improved healing and overall well-being.

Promotes Tissue Healing

When your muscle tissue is relaxed, it is able to remove blood and fluids that accumulate in the injured tissues surrounding tissues and joints. In addition, by restoring proper or healthy neuro-muscular patterns the mechanical stress of dysfunctional movements are corrected. The result is a decrease in pain and inflammation, improved healing, increased mobility and joint function.
