Q

<p>What is the PROTOCOL for NMT technique</p>

A

<p></p>

<p>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 7Ask if you can use more pressure?Have the client BREATH deep for 10-12 seconds. Re-evaluate pain scaleTreat twice</p>

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

A

<p></p>

<p>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</p>
