WHAT IS RAPID NEUROFASCIAL RESET?
RAPID is a neurologically based, active, therapeutic technique that addresses the central nervous systems role in alleviating tension and restrictions within the body. RAPID is an evidence based manual therapy technique that can quickly and effectively help to eliminate pain.
Many stubborn conditions can be quickly resolved with RAPID-NFR
ONE | BODY IS A CERTIFIED RAPID SPECIALIST
RAPID addresses the body’s perception of threat and danger. By bringing the brain to safety most painful conditions reduce and movement restrictions improve.
Using nociception and movement RAPID induces a combination of descending inhibition within the nervous system and a powerful increase in vasodilation.
Though many painful conditions appear to have an insidious onset, very often they are a by-product of an old - possibly minor injury where, due to unforeseen factors, full healing was restricted. Biopsies on these areas have shown the tissue to contain concentrations of neuroimmunological factors, or the “chronic artifacts of inflammation”, these once healing cells are now known to be highly sensitizing to the nervous system often causing pain and dysfunction.
By applying RAPID, we can flush these areas, cause an increase in endogenous opioids and cannabinoids as well as create an influx of neuropeptides that are known to destroy these neuroimmunological factors which in turn desensitizes the nervous system.
What is a treatment like?
RAPID Therapists use a combination of hands on palpation, examination, clinical reasoning and treatment. Palpating the tissues to evaluate the texture, tightness and movement of muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments and nerves. Hypersensitive areas are treated by combining precisely directed depth & tension with very specific patient movements.
PLEASE NOTE: RAPID sessions may be uncomfortable. This occurs as the neurological system is being stimulated with Nociception to trigger the healing response & help restore normal function.
