Neural Manipulation
- Neural Manipulation is a wonderful therapy for healing the soft tissue injuries of car accidents
- NM is also invaluable in recovery from concussions, physical trauma, anxiety, insomnia, and PTSD
- It has also proved helpful in carpal tunnel, sciatica, and neuralgia
- NM works with the body’s communication network – the nervous system
- Sudden injury, trauma, and/or chronic stress shock your nervous system, & keep it in a state of constant stress
- Chronic or intense stress prevents your body from healing
- Healing becomes possible only when the nervous system calms down
- through very subtle pressure on key nerves, NM helps the nervous system relax
- then the body can emerge from fear, anxiety, or insomnia
- in other instances, an injury, strain, or repetitive action will result in a painful nerve fixation
- sciatica, frozen shoulder, carpal tunnel, and tennis elbow are all examples of a specific nerve becoming pinched or restricted
- in these instances with NM, the compressed nerve is gently engaged, & then the surrounding tissues are carefully moved in order to allow the nerve to once again slide and glide freely. The result is diminished or eliminated pain, & increased ability to move.
Neural Manipulation: what does it feel like?
- NM involves extremely light touch precisely applied on affected areas
- Sometimes it feels like you are hardly being touched
- The nerves themselves have a slightly electric, buzzy feel
- When nerve fixations are freed, the response can differ
- There can be immediate, dramatic relief where the contracted muscles surrounding the nerve suddenly relax
- Sometimes the original symptoms of pain & discomfort are briefly aggravated, then very gradually subside & disappear over a period of 2-3 weeks
