Neuromuscular Massage Therapy for Injury and Postural Realignment
Description:
Neuromuscular Massage Therapy (NMT) is a specialized form of massage therapy that focuses on treating soft tissue injuries and correcting postural imbalances. This therapeutic approach involves the application of precise, targeted pressure to specific areas of muscle and connective tissue, helping to relieve pain, restore function, and improve overall posture. It also involves deep tissue massage and fascia release techniques.
In this session I may also include other modalities such as Dolphin Stim Micro-current and Rapid Release percussive massage instrument depending on the clients needs.
