What is neuromuscular massage therapy (Trigger Point Release)?

In a world where stress is the root cause of most illnesses, going to therapy has become an inevitable practice for urban people. A nice massage can help anyone take it easy and relieve a lot of the week’s stress. We need licensed massage therapists and an environment where our stress is alleviated from our body so that we can perform to our maximum potential. We all may have noticed our muscles spasm for no apparent reason from time to time. This, while largely due to stress may also be a sign of excessive work being performed which the muscle may not be able to take. Ignoring such spasms can be life-threatening. Tampa bay Clinic explains Neuromuscular massage therapy and its benefits in the following ways:

What is Neuromuscular Therapy

Neuromuscular therapy is the act of controlling the spasms that occur in our muscles by supplying different levels of condensed pressure to that muscle. This massage therapy is usually done with fingers, elbows, and knee knuckles as the massage therapists know exactly where and how much pressure to apply. This helps in alternating the pressure better so that the muscle relaxes faster.

It releases Muscle Pain

Neuromuscular therapy is great for quick relief from consistent muscle pain. It involves triggering the various pressure points in our body to relax the muscles so as to prevent them from over-working. The therapy can feel painful at first because of all the pressure points being activated for the first time, but as a licensed massage therapist works on your body, you can feel a change for the better, immediately.

Restores Nervous System Balance

At the time, due to our postures or us constantly sitting in one position, our nerves can spasm out. This can cause sudden and sharp pains because of a shift in the nerve directly beneath the skin. Neuromuscular therapy helps stabilize these nerves with concentrated pressure so that the nerves grow a healthy resistance against any future posture-related problems. These massages help the nerves acclimate better within the body.

Better Blood Flow

The other major benefit of Neuromuscular therapy is that it helps in regulating the overall blood flow in our body. Massage therapists help in targeting areas of our body which may spasm out due to a lower or higher workload. The massage helps to keep the body in motion. By massaging the pressure points and helping the muscles relax, the blood can travel faster, without any problems thereby making us feel rejuvenated almost instantly. Some people even feel light headed after this, but that is a good sign as it shows that the blood is moving freely flowing throughout the body. This also helps lower the blood pressure and the overall stress on organs in the long run. Neuromuscular therapy is not just an instant answer to all our muscular problems but also helps in maintaining our health over the long haul. Massage can help clear out your mind and make you understand your body and its needs in a better way.
