What is NeuroKinetic Therapy™ (NKT)
NeuroKinetic Therapy™ is a form of movement therapy that goes beyond the treatment of symptoms and instead focuses on the root causes of pain and dysfunction. It can be used as both an assessment tool and rehabilitative technique for chronic pain and injury.
Through a series of hands-on muscle tests, certified NKT professionals assess movement systems to determine the specific patterns of imbalance, dysfunction, and compensation. This problem-solving technique can quickly zero in on the muscle or muscles responsible for pain and injury. Your therapist can then utilize massage therapy, dry needling, stretching, or other therapy modality to release the appropriate muscles tissues; and corrective exercises to strengthen imbalances. The result is quick, long lasting relief from pain, stiffness and dysfunction, and overall improved movement quality and performance.
NKT can be a powerful tool to help heal from an acute injury, reduce your risk of pain and injury, break from the injury cycle, and get you moving and feeling better. NKT is quick, cost effective treatment for both rehabilitation and prevention of injuries.
Will NeuroKinetic Therapy be helpful for you? Every case is different and every person responds differently to therapy. NKT is an interesting and profound therapy and only true way to understand this work is to experience it.
