There are several different types of massage out there, and they all have their benefits. One type of massage that can be beneficial in treating many different ailments is neuromuscular release, or trigger point therapy. Many people are finding that they have been freed of chronic pain they have had for years when this massage technique has been used on them. Massage Miami Beach is here to talk about neuromuscular release and what this type of massage therapy is generally used for.
What is Neuromuscular Technique?
If you have never heard of neuromuscular release, or trigger point therapy, we would like to explain just what it is. This type of massage therapy isn’t one that is always comfortable and relaxing. This can sometimes even be painful as the therapist can put pressure on those tight, tense muscles that could use the help. When pressure is applied to these muscles, the tense muscle will send a signal to the entrapped nerve to release which can lead to softening. Neuromuscular release helps to restore blood flow and oxygen to that area so it can function with far less pain than before.
Neuromuscular Therapy Relieves Pain
There are several different factors that come into play and create the pain that you’re feeling. These are the many different factors that neuromuscular therapy can target to help improve the amount of pain you’re feeling.
- Trigger Points: These are areas in the body’s nervous system that become irritable knots in your muscles.
- Nerve Entrapment/Compression: Anytime you have a nerve that is being compressed for any reason, you are going to have severe chronic pain.
- Posture Problems: There’s a reason your mom has always told you to have good posture. When you don’t, those muscles that are meant to support will eventually be weakened. You will end up with overused reactive muscles that are tired and sore.
- Nutrition: Your body needs nutrition to stay healthy. When the cells in your body aren’t getting the nutrients that are needed, your entire system will pay the price. Movement of these tissues is essential to stimulate the lymphatic system and strengthen your immune function.
- Stress: Believe it or not, stress can do a number on your nervous system and your musculoskeletal system. This chronic tension needs to be released so that your body can calm down and relax a bit.
