NEUROMUSCULAR MASSAGE

NMT or neuromuscular therapy is a combination of myofascial, trigger point and stretching techniques designed to normalize the nervous system’s control over the muscles.  In addition to stretching your muscles, your LMT may ask you to contract specific muscles to help facilitate their relaxation.  In sharp contrast to Swedish massage which focuses on the circulation to the muscles, this type of massage concentrates on the nervous system and its control over the muscles.  These techniques are generally applied to the skin using little or no oil or cream.
