We are proud to bring Neural Reset Therapy to the New RiverValley area!
Neural Reset Therapy (also called NRT) is a unique soft-tissue therapy quitedifferent from traditional massage. Thistechnique allows the therapist to reset the nervous system to release musclesfrom excessive tension and pain within seconds.
It is far more efficient than deeptissue massage and, unlike deep tissue,it is completely pain-free anddone while fully clothed.
The long-termeffects last as long or longer than the results obtained from other therapeuticapproaches.
NRT can seem too good to be true, but it is based on soundscientific principles involving neurological and physiological laws. By stimulating specialized nerve bundles calledmechanoreceptors, the therapist is able to send a signal back to the brain to reset the dysfunctionalmuscle.
The result is pain eithersignificantly dissipating or completely disappearing, generally within a fewseconds.
What to Expect with NRT
Since NRT is done fully clothed, you will want to wearcomfortable clothes to your session.Workout clothes work great, as well as any clothes that do not restrictyour movement.
The entire session is done while you are lying face up. This is an active process, so there will be alot of communication between client and therapist for the entire session.
Even though this is a gentle technique, some clients havereported soreness similar to a good workout up to 48 hours after thesession. For clients that come in withextreme pain, the soreness can last longer.This is because NRT can target deep muscles that aren’t normally workedon – even with deep tissue massage.
Powerful Examples of Neural Reset Therapy
1) A new client came in complaining of sciatica-like symptoms. He was experiencing severe pain in his lowerback, legs and buttocks that made it impossible for him to stand up straight orfind a comfortable position to sit or sleep.
After 45 minutes of focused NRT work, Brian was able tosignificantly improve the client’s range of motion. The client was amazed to report that after thesession his pain was completely gone.When Brian followed up with him a few days later, he said the originalpain was still gone, but he was a little bit sore and felt his range of motionhad diminished somewhat. He scheduled a follow-up NRT session which addressed his remaining issues.
2) An 86-year-old client suffering from low back pain could not lie flat on her back. Brian previously had been working on her with traditional massage modalities to significantly reduce the pain, but she still could not lie flat. After NRT training, Brian applied one 45 second reset to her back and she was immediately able to lie flat. She says it is the first time in decades that she has been able to do so. With a quick, gentle reset every once in a while she has been able to maintain this normal range of motion.
3) A client came in with constant pain in her elbow from an injury she had suffered years ago. Prior to Brian's NRT training, he had limited success in reducing the pain. After training, he was able to reduce her pain by about 80% with a few minutes of resetting. The following session he was able to completely remove the pain.
4) A new client came in with long-term pain in her neck, back and legs from a car accident she was in two years ago. She was shocked at the amount of relief she received from just one 60 minute Neural Reset Therapy session. She said that this one session had helped her more than when she went to physical therapy four times a week for six months. She is looking forward to her future NRT sessions.
Clients have called this method mind-blowing, amazing and magic. While we might agree with the first two, NRT certainly isn't magic. It is based on sound science.
Remember that all of our muscles are under the control of our nervous system. By stimulating mechanoreceptors enough to cause a reset of the nervous system, the muscles relax and lengthen.
Give it a try and see for yourself. Whether you are dealing with acute or chronic pain, Neural Reset Therapy can help.
Book an NRT Session
Currently, only Brian is trained in both upper and lower body NRT.
We have two length sessions available:
- 40 minute for $80
- 60 minute for $100
The 60 minute session allows for a more thorough treatment, especially since clients tend to have a lot of questions when they first experience NRT.
Typically, we recommend a 60 minute session for the initial treatment. After that a 40 minute might very well be enough for future sessions. It will always depend on your individual needs.
If you have any questions, or would like to schedule a session, feel free to contact us.
