Nashville Neuromuscular Massage Therapy

Nashville Neuromuscular Center ------------- Detectives Discover Source of Pain

"Neuromuscular Massage Therapy is different from relaxation massage.
The people we see have specific problems. The treatments we provide draw from a wide variety of body work techniques which we combine under the moniker of our core work 'Neuromuscular Therapy.'
We try to help our clients reach their goals as quickly and efficiently as possible and then send them off to live a good life.
We're not interested in having folks become dependent on us week after week to keep the same old pain at bay. We actually want to resolve the source of that pain, so it is no longer an issue!
While we strive to educate and help our clients help themselves, most choose to continue with us for a regular schedule of maintenance, knowing these regular tune ups will help them prevent future injury and gain a better understanding of their musculoskeletal system and biomechanics." ~Rebecca Saindon, Director

What is NMT--Neuromuscular Massage Therapy?

Think of it as Holistic Orthopedics. This specific and scientific approach to muscular pain relief will help to normalize functional communication between the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system. Many People seek out 'Deep Tissue' massage, and while Neuromuscular Massage Therapy is technically a deep tissue technique, it is not about the depth of pressure, but rather about specificity -- the specific placement of pressure. If the therapist is on the exact muscle fibers involved, they will not necessarily need to exert a heavy hand in order to be effective. We do not subscribe to the "no pain, no gain" philosophy in our application of Neuromuscular Therapy.

Neuromuscular Therapy enhances the function of joints, muscles, and biomechanics (movement). It is a noninvasive and economically feasible method of pain treatment in Nashville and is effective in treating cases like low back pain, neck pain, arm and shoulder pain, hip and knee problems, TMJ pain, headache, and scoliosis. When used in conjunction with other medical modalities, Therapeutic Neuromuscular Massage can be a very efficient part of a comprehensive treatment plan. We are happy to work in conjunction with your Physician or other Healthcare Provider. Or NMT is itself a stand-alone treatment approach.

The Nashville Neuromuscular Center

Therapeutic Massage the Nashville Neuromuscular Center way begins with a thorough assessment of the client's individual posture, history, and movement patterns. Then your therapist designs a program to address and correct any imbalances. Early on, Rebecca realized that therapeutic massage alone was not enough - that specific and precise strengthening is a key element in the process of relieving pain and restoring posture.

Twelve years ago Rebecca became certified as a personal fitness trainer and began study with Paul Chek to ensure the knowledge necessary to be working within this scope of expertise. At that time she expanded NNC to include a small private gym onsite. Now Rebecca is on the verge of completing certification as an Egoscue Posture Alignment Specialist. All of our therapists are skilled in posture correcting exercise and advanced clinical massage techniques.

The Nashville Neuromuscular Center is a multidisciplinary practice offering the skilled application of several therapeutic massage and manual techniques toward a single result - relieving pain by restoring posture. Our ultimate goal is to facilitate your ability to attain the most efficient body posture to maximize painfree movement patterns, and to educate you about how to maintain this posture without being dependent on any particular therapist or modality to keep you functioning well. NNC's therapeutic massage therapists strive to maintain the highest credentials in the field and approach their work from a holistic viewpoint. They are committed to providing excellent care. Do note that 'studying' a modality or technique is not the same as exhibiting proficiency in that field and attaining certification. All therapists on staff are well trained and produce results as can be witnessed in the pages of our client testimonials.
