Neurodynamics is a term coined by physical therapists David Butler and Michael Shacklock to describe manual methods for mobilizing peripheral nerves. Nerve mobilization includes nerve gliding and nerve tensioning.

In Myoskeletal Alignment Techniques we use several manual methods that lubricate joints and soft tissue by generating warmth in the tissue and rolling fascial sacs across associated structures. Some of these methods restore capsular flexibility, enhance joint play, and encourage pain-free range of motion. Others stimulate muscle spindles to turn on weak muscles and improve their firing patterns.

The zygapophyseal joints are a crucial component of the human vertebral column, contributing to its stability, flexibility, and load-bearing capabilities. Learn two techniques that improve Z joint function.

Undulation is the bi-directional lateral flexion of the spine observed in reptiles and humans. The intent of undulation is to reawaken the brain-body connection by inducing smooth, rhythmic motion through all spinal segments. This undulating mobilization technique is a valuable tool to use with your clients. Click here to watch a video and learn more.

In Myoskeletal Alignment Technique (MAT), therapists use graded exposure (GE) stretches to improve flexibility and help clients engage with painful movement barriers. GE stretching reduces the anxiety associated with a particular movement pattern or situation.
