ST. JOHN METHOD OF NEUROMUSCULAR THERAPY





IT IS A COMPREHENSIVE PROGRAM OF SOFT TISSUE MANIPULATION TECHNIQUES TO BALANCE NERVOUS SYSTEM WITH MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM. THIS THERAPY IS BASED ON NEUROLOGICAL LAWS THAT EXPLAIN HOW THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM MAINTAINS HOMEOSTATIC BALANCE. ACCORDINGLY , THESE SAME LAWS DICTATE HOW NERVOUS SYSTEM INITIATES PAIN RESPONSES.

AS A RULE NEUROMUSCULAR THERAPY CLEARS THE WAY FOR RAPID RESULTS, HOWEVER , HEALING IS A BIOLOGICAL PROCESS WHICH TAKES TIME. THE DURATION OF THE TOTAL THERAPEUTIC PROGRAM DEPENDS ON :

- HOW MACH DAMAGE HAS BEEN DONE
- HOW RAPIDLY YOUR BODY HEALS
- THE STATE OF YOUR GENERAL HEALTH
- HOW LONG THE CONDITION EXISTED
- STRESS FACTORS INFLUENCING YOUR LIFE
