Q

Postural Analysis

A

Muscles can be identified as LOCKED SHORT or LOCKED LONG based on posture. Therapists can then treat the LOCKED SHORT muscles as a means of balancing posture

Q

What is the PROTOCOL for NMT technique

A

ASSESS - Evaluate what they are saying and how they are walking and holding themselves (posture) GENERAL GLIDE - warm up the muscle region with effleurage SPECIFIC GLIDE - STATIC PRESSURE / TRIGGER POINT RELEASE - use the “wave” to SLOWLY stretch the myofascial tissue until you find a point of pain then use STATIC PRESSURE and a pain scale until you reach 7 Ask if you can use more pressure? Have the client BREATH deep for 10-12 seconds. Re-evaluate pain scale Treat twice

Q

How you should define the pain scale (don’t call it a pain scale to the client)

A

Less than 5: I definitely need more pressure 5: that feels good. No discomfort 6: mild discomfort 7: moderate discomfort 7.5: strong sensation but no impulse to withdraw 8: impulse to withdraw, pain, inability to relax into the technique
