Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does the NMR therapy hurt?
It can be uncomfortable and border on painful, however, each pattern only takes a few seconds, and overall treatment on a particular group of muscles or body part lasts only between 10-15 minutes. The general consensus from patients is that they have lived with this pain for a long enough period of time that any pain as a result of treatment is not a big concern if it will help resolve the problem.
2. How long does the therapy take to work?
In all reality the application of neuromuscular reeducation should show a definitive change in range of motion, function, and possibly pain almost immediately. When running a clinical trial on a body part, usually I will decide within four to six visits whether or not the therapy would be beneficial to the patient. If the patient hasn’t shown subjective and objective improvement in that time frame, this type of therapy is most likely not going to benefit this patient, and treatment can be terminated.
3. Will I be sore following treatment?
Many times residual soreness does occur following deep tissue release work. Ice, anti-inflammatory enzymes, extra water consumption, and exercise can all help minimize these effects.
4. What conditions respond best to this treatment?
Any and all areas of muscle pain, injury and loss of range-of-motion (either acute or chronic) can be treated with NMR. If you or a family member have a problem and you are not sure if this technique can help you please ask Dr. Julie O'Shaughnessy
