Sugar Land Neuromuscular Massage (NMT):

Using proper neuromuscular massage techniques can bring relief from pain. Indeed, this has been found to be the most effective type of massage therapy for lower back pain and The American Academy of Pain Management has recognized neuromuscular massage therapy as an effective treatment for back pain caused by soft tissue injury, such as a muscle strain.

Based upon a thorough understanding of the neuromuscular system, NMT is a very precise approach of massage to muscles, tendons, ligaments, connective tissue, etc., which may be missed during a general massage.

Muscles in spasm may be painful to the touch. The main reason for the pain is lack of blood flow. The lack of blood reduces the amount of oxygen available to the muscles, and this in turn leads to a build-up of lactic acid, which causes the pain. Neuromuscular massage therapy (NMT) relaxes the muscles, increases the blood flow and oxygen available to them, and releases the lactic acid and cause of pain.

After the neuromuscular therapy massage, you may feel a slight soreness for about twenty-four to thirty-six hours. However, the muscles will now be noticeably more relaxed. Depending upon stress, activity and the severity of the pain prior to the treatment, the muscles should remain relaxed for about four days to two weeks. Subsequent treatments are recommended to maintain relief of pain.
