Neurodynamics

Pain isn’t always just in the tissues and muscles of the body; it can also stem from nerve tension. Neural tension testing is one of our top diagnostic tools to pinpoint the root cause of your symptoms. Proper nerve movement is essential for full range of motion. We’ll teach you how to perform Nerve Glides, a self-treatment technique that helps restore natural nerve motion, alleviate pain, and regain full range of motion.

Michael Shacklock is a renowned physiotherapist and researcher known for his contributions to the field of neurodynamics. Neurodynamics focuses on the relationship between the nervous system and its surrounding tissues, aiming to optimize the health and function of nerves. Shacklock developed techniques to assess and treat conditions where nerve mobility and health are compromised. His approach combines manual therapy and specific exercises to restore normal nerve function, alleviate pain, and improve movement. By understanding how nerves interact with muscles, joints, and other tissues, Shacklock’s methods help address a wide range of musculoskeletal issues, providing patients with effective, targeted treatments for conditions like sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other nerve-related problems. His work empowers patients to manage their symptoms through tailored exercises and techniques that promote nerve health and overall well-being.
