Therapist Juneau - The idea of clinical kinesiology is quite easy, but what is it that makes it work? The focus of Clinical Kinesiology is on strengthening the weaker muscles that play a hidden role in causing pain. Different types of treatment deal with the tight muscles as the main cause of distress in conditions of chronic pain or injury. Clinical Kinesiology is based upon the concept that muscle tightness is simply the body's way of protecting a joint that has become unstable due to the weakness of surrounding muscles. Clinical Kinesiology addresses the weakness of those muscles. After the imbalances in the muscles are corrected, there is an increase in performance and a decrease in pain.
When the muscles that have tightened to protect the joints, are loosened from treatments, the pain might be briefly lessened but would ultimately recur if the weaknesses underlying the problem are not dealt with. It might be hard to find the main reason for weakness because the entire musculoskeletal system acts as a single unit. Exercise alone cannot correct a weak muscle when the cause is imbalance in the musculoskeletal system as a whole. Clinical Kinesiology is a unique treatment that resolves and uncovers these hidden causes of pain.
After the imbalances inside the body are corrected, the joints involved would stabilize as the tight muscles protecting the joints are able to relax. Both the increase in mobility and strength and the alleviation of pain are apparent immediately. However, some people may find Clinical Kinesiology to be quite strange at first. Using Clinical Kinesiology, an individual with poor functioning of the knee might require their shoulder treated in order to see an improvement. It's not the way we are used to thinking of treatment. We believe that if the knee hurts, the knee has to be treated. But usually, despite treatment, the knee problem becomes chronic, returning over again. That is because the true key to recovery lies in the way the whole body relates to the injured part. Through the nervous system, every ligament, organ, nerve and muscle within the body is connected to every other part of the body. Healing includes restoring coordination of the entire body.
With Clinical Kinesiology, there are lots of conditions could be helped. Nagging injuries that do not fully heal, or those which inhibit your enjoyment of life, or the feeling of imbalance in your body that you cannot explain, Clinical Kinesiology can benefit you.
Clinical Kinesiology has been utilized to treat Adhesive Capsulitis, Carpal Tunnel, Mental Blocks, Tennis Elbows, Bursitis, Tendonitis, and Strains ans Sprains.
