Neuro-Fascial Release
In neuro-fascial release, Dr. Helms' uses the gentle pressure of his hands to connect with the patient's energetic field just as the acupuncture needle is able to access the flow of qi (energy) that courses through the Chinese meridian system. Dr. Helms often employs acupuncture in combination with neuro-fascial release, but is not limited to the meridians or channels when using his hands - he can work directly on muscles, joints, bones, organs and other soft tissues.
The release of tissue restrictions or strain patterns allows for healing; this is the essence of neuro-fascial release. It will help normalize muscle tone, decrease pain, decrease swelling and increase motion to peripheral orthopedic problems, but also relieves mental and emotional disturbances that have festered or become lodged in these same tissues.
Patients are commonly amazed (or mystified) by their treatments with Dr. Helms, finding that this treatment, like no other, helps them to heal and to grow.
