Academic pillars of Myo-Reflex Therapy (MRT):
1. The anatomy of the muscular-skeletal system
2. The physics and biomechanics of the muscular-skeletal system
3. Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupuncture and muscle-meridians
4. Psychology, psycho-traumatology and neuro-psychology
5. Parts of osteopathy and embryology
6. Physical therapy techniques
7. Orthopedics, neurology and neural therapy
8. Biochemistry and insights from the latest brain research
These scientific concepts link the insights and experiences of old medical systems (traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture) with the knowledge of modern-day medicine. This approach makes it possible to view and treat a person, or his or her dis-ease, from different angles.
How MRT works:
MRT is a holistic pressure point therapy targeting the body’s entire muscle system along so-called muscle chains and meridians in kinematic and functional interactions.
Therapists detect and treat postural misalignments, aiming to re-balance and stabilize a dynamic pain free muscular-skeletal and autonomic nervous system.
MRT supports a natural self-awareness and, like a mirror, helps to reflect the physical and mental well-being of a person. The ‘internal healer’ is activated, stimulating the self-healing forces of the body.
What MRT treats:
• Muscular-skeletal dysfunctions including (but not limited to):
• Arthritis,
• Whiplash injuries, chronic back pain
• Herniated vertebral disk
• Headaches, migraines, muscle tension and -pain
• Tendonitis, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• Frozen shoulder, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
• Tennis/golfer elbow
• Sciatica
• Spinal stenosis
• Scoliosis
• Repetitive stress injuries
• Pelvic floor problems
Neuro-muscular malfunctions, including:
• ALS
• Parkinson
• Multiple sclerosis
• Muscular Dystrophy
In connection with psychotherapy, Myo-Reflex is also used to support treatment of psychological disorders, including:
• Post Traumatic Stress
• Burn-Out Syndrome
• Psychological-Trauma
Other Disorders
• Fibromyalgie
• Cancer
• Auto-immune (Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis)
• ADD, ADHD
• Autism
• Trigeminal neuralgia
After you have seen a specialist and ruled out purely organic problems, MRT can be used to treat the following problems (via influencing the organ musculature and using specific acupuncture points):
• Asthma
• Chronic bronchitis
• Visual disturbances
• High Blood Pressure
• Heart palpitations with benign cardiac arrhythmias
• Heartburn
• Stomach irritation
• Intestinal problems (constipation)
• Infertility....
