Myorthotics. What is Myorthotics?
Myorthotics may be the answer for you!!!Myorthotics is a simple muscle, ligament, and sinew relaxant technique which is designed to relax contracted soft tissues which may be placing uneven strains on the vertebrae.
This non-invasive, non-chiropractic technique is very effective for the relief of joint pain, muscle pain, and spinal pain. It is simple to perform and can take 15 - 20 minutes for each patient. Myorthotics was the brain child of the late, great Robert Lucy, founder of "The College of Somatic Studies" Myothotics means "Myo" for muscle and "orthotics" for support and relaxant, for it is a muscle support and relaxant technique. As the muscle and other soft tissue of the body assume their correct length and position, they release their pressures on the spine and the spine then assumes a position which is comfortable for the patient. Myorthotics is a non-invasive soft tissue technique involving ligaments and muscles. When muscles spasm, joint spaces can be narrowed and nerves trapped in the spasmed fibre. The ligaments that join muscles to bone each have a channel to move in. If these ligaments are not in their correct channel, they become inflamed and swollen, causing pain. By using specific myorthotic points, it is possible to relax muscles, and using finger pressure, re-align ligaments in their correct channels.
Few points to remember after a Myorthotic:
Experience has shown that any of these things appear to bring fluid to the area treated, and can float the soft tissue out of their normal position.
