The Benefits Of Neuromuscular Reeducation

Neuromuscular Reeducation

At the Alamitos Bay Chiropractic & Wellness Center, Long Beach chiropractor Dr. Michael A. Wooten sees his patients as far more than just the injury or dysfunction they're struggling with. Every person who walks through his door represents a unique combination of physiological systems and health history that are interacting to produce a given health problem, and all of these systems (musculoskeletal, neurological, hormonal, psychological, and so on) must be assessed and addressed to maximize outcomes. 

The neuromuscular system is one of the most important systems contributing to disease and dysfunction, which is why Dr. Wooten has spent decades mastering his clinical skills in the evaluation, treatment, and re-education of the human anatomy and nervous system as it relates to movement and motor function. neuromusuclar reeducation being treated by chiropractor

What Is Neuromuscular Reeducation?

Neuromuscular reeducation is a non-invasive soft tissue technique that restores normal muscle activation and movement. It involves firm and targeted pressure from a chiropractor's hands directed on soft tissues in the back, arms, or legs identified as areas of impaired movement (often due to an old sports injury). Specific therapeutic techniques used in neuromuscular reeducation include sports massage, active release and trigger point therapy.

What Are The Benefits Of Neuromuscular Reeducation?

The primary aim of this treatment approach is to restore the proper firing of spinal and peripheral nerves in order to improve range of motion, relieve pain, and eliminate soft tissue adhesions (akin to scarring or damage) that often come about after a sports injury or some other ailment. Neuromuscular reeducation also helps relieve pressure on impinged nerves, restores the normal texture of muscles and connective tissues, enhances balance, and improves the flexibility and strength of key muscles and tendons. 

Who Is Neuromuscular Reeducation For?

Anyone suffering from chronic pain and dysfunction related to an old injury may benefit from neuromuscular reeducation. These people often have to "re-learn" how to move in a safer and more energy-efficient way, which is where neuromuscular reeducation becomes especially beneficial. This technique is also helpful for people with improper movement patterns, which is often a result of poor posture, imbalances in the length/tension relationships of soft tissues, or a lack of education regarding proper body mechanics.
