What is neuromuscular therapy and how is it different from any other type of massage ?

Neuromuscular therapy (NMT) is a specialized form of manual therapy that focuses on identifying and treating myofascial trigger points, which are hyperirritable spots in the muscles, tendons, and connective tissue. The goal of neuromuscular therapy is to relieve pain and dysfunction by addressing the underlying causes of musculoskeletal pain.

How often should I get a massage?

The frequency at which you should get a massage depends on various factors, including your individual health goals, lifestyle, budget, and the specific reasons for seeking massage therapy.

STRESS MANAGEMENT-

  • For stress management and overall well-being, many people find benefit in getting a massage once a month.

  • If you have a particularly stressful lifestyle or occupation, you might consider more frequent sessions, such as every two weeks.

CHRONIC PAIN OR INJURY RECOVERY:

  • Individuals dealing with chronic pain or recovering from an injury may benefit from more frequent sessions initially. This could be once a week or every two weeks until improvement is noticeable.

  • Once the condition improves, the frequency of sessions may be reduced to a maintenance level.

ATHLETIC TRAINING:

  • Athletes often incorporate regular massages into their training regimen. The frequency may vary based on the intensity of training, competition schedules, and individual recovery needs.

  • Some athletes choose weekly massages during intense training periods, while others may opt for less frequent sessions during maintenance phases.

SPECIFIC HEALTH CONDITIONS:

  • If you're seeking our services for specific health conditions, such as migraines, digestive issues, or sleep disorders, the frequency may depend on the severity of the condition and the therapeutic goal.
