NMT assessments and examinations primarily address:

  • ischemia (tight tissue with reduced blood flow)
  • myofascial trigger points (hypersensitive points within muscles that give rise to referred phenomena, including pain)
  • neural entrapment (pressure on nerves by muscles and other soft tissues), and nerve compression (pressure on nerves by osseous and other bone like tissues, such as cartilage or discs)
  • postural assessment (assessment of the position of the body as a whole)
  • dysfunctional gait patterns (manner of movement when walking)
