EZscripting.co.ukTHE ST. JOHN METHOD OF NEUROMUSCULAR THERAPY
The St. John Method of NMT is a comprehensive program of soft tissue manipulation techniques that balance the central nervous system (brain, spinal cord and nerves) with the structure and form of the musculoskeletal system (skeleton and muscles of the body).
The five principles that cause pain. I. Ischemia: A lack of blood supply to the soft tissues, which causes them to be very sensitive to touch. II. Trigger Points: Occurs when nerves fire impulses at a rapid speed into an area of the body other than that which has been traumatized. III. Nerve compression or entrapment: Pressure on a nerve by bone; cartilage or soft tissue. The role of the soft tissues in nerve compression is vital. IV. Postural Distortion: An imbalance of the muscular system resulting from movement of the body off the coronal, midsagittal and horizontal planes. V. Biomechanical dysfunction: An imbalance of the musculoskeletal system resulting in faulty movement patterns. Repetitive strain of certain soft tissues results in adapted movement patterns that become muscular "habits" and must be reeducated.
How Does Neuromuscular Therapy Help you? NMT can help individuals experiencing structural distortion, biomechanical dysfunction and the accompanying pain that is often a symptom of the underlying problem. It is used to locate and release spasms and hyper contraction in the tissues: eliminate trigger points that cause referred pain; restore postural alignment, proper biomechanics and flexibility to the tissues; rebuild the strength of injured tissues and assist venous and lymphatic flow. NMT is an effective and economically feasible method of treatment.
