Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT)

Neurokinetic therapy (NKT) is an innovative approach to testing and treating compensation patterns. In a typical compensation pattern you will see two types of muscles: those that are weak; and those that are overworking as a result.

Both of these types of muscles can feel ‘tight’ or painful to the patient, but they need very different treatment approaches. This is what NKT does better than other approaches. It identifies exactly what muscles need to be released and which muscles require gentle strengthening. Due to this precision results tend to be faster and last longer than a typical massage.

By treating compensation patterns we are able to increase Range of Motion (ROM), decrease pain and restore more efficient movement patterns.

Rebecca’s Neurokinetic Therapy Journey

In 2017 Rebecca found herself cutting back hours at the clinic where she worked.  Despite getting weekly treatment for her neck, an old whiplash injury was just not healing properly. 

At this point Rebecca had tried almost everything: traditional massage, chiropractic, physiotherapy, osteopathy, and an aggressive form of acupuncture.  However, a day or two after any of these treatments her neck pain would return.

At some point, Rebecca heard about NKT.  She decided to give it a try. After a few short sessions her neck finally felt better.

After experiencing the benefits of Neurokinetic Therapy, Rebecca wanted to give her own patients the same results. She therefore decided to become a certified practitioner. Under two years later she obtained her Level 3 certification. This is the highest level of training available via NKT.

As of this writing, Rebecca is now the one and only advanced NKT practitioner in all of Sudbury.

NKT Can be Added to Any Style of Treatment

One of the beautiful things about Neurokinetic Therapy is that it plays very well with other modalities. Are you a deep tissue addict? We can add NKT into your deep tissue massage. Do you prefer a softer hand during your treatments? We can add NKT into a Swedish Massage.
