Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT) at PRE Therapy


Neurokinetic Therapy is an innovative approach that assesses unpleasant and painful movement patterns in the nervous system. Trauma, injuries, and repetitive strain can alter these movements, creating dysfunctional movement resulting in compensation patterns. When these unpleasant and painful patterns fatigue, it often results in pain in the weakest link.

NKT uses manual muscle testing to determine which which tight areas must be released and which must strengthen to maximize the results. Through this process, the practitioner can help the patient develop better and more efficient movement patterns to keep muscle imbalances in check, and the injury from reoccurring.

FAQs


 

+ What is NKT?

NKT is an innovative approach that assesses unpleasant and chronic pain in movement patterns held in the nervous system, the body’s motor control center.

+ How does PRE Therapy incorporate this treatment in a unique and different way?

NKT is a protocol that will help determine the cause of the dysfunction and discomfort. Neurokinetic therapy is paired with manual therapy to address the areas of high tension and followed up with a specific activation protocol to allow for the motor control center to restore the proper movement pattern.

+ What is the PRE Therapy NKT Clinic experience like?

Treatments involving NKT at PRE Therapy are usually performed with sportswear, allowing the patient to hop on/off the table throughout the treatment. Thus allowing our practitioners to assess/re-assess continually each corrective pattern performed.

+ How does the pricing work for this treatment?

Pricing is the exact same as a standard treatment. More details are available on our pricing and insurance page.

+ What are the benefits of NKT?

Instead of just alleviating the symptoms, this method allows for the body to re-learn how it moves where dysfunctional movement patterns currently exist, ultimately experiencing longer, sustained results in workouts or daily life.

+ Who is this treatment for?

NKT is for anyone! Whether you are sedentary, a weekend warrior, or a full-time athlete, we all experience different kinds of discomfort that can be treated effectively by neurokinetic therapy.
