How Does a Muscle Fail?
When a muscle is overloaded to the point it is pulled at its attachment and can’t handle a load, a cell in the tendon sends a signal to the brain telling it is being stretched beyond what it can bear. The brain then shuts down the muscle. It is similar to a circuit breaker in an electrical circuit. Once this occurs, the muscle can’t take a load anymore. Loss of range of motion, pain, and weakness are experienced.
When this happens, other muscles or tissues attempt to take on more of the load as the body adapts and compensates.
Muscles can be assessed by testing them in the range of motion they are meant to perform. You can think of muscles as a pulley system. Every pulley has to work together for full function of the body to take place. When one of the pulleys fails, the others try to pick up the slack and now are not only doing their job, but trying to do the job they weren’t made to do. If the extra stress continues, they could lose their function, in turn causing a snowball effect of more muscle function loss.
What Is Advanced Muscle Integration Technique?
AMIT can identify muscles that are shut down with the brain and predict injuries by examining and identifying these instabilities in the body. After the shutdown muscle is defined by the doctor, stimulation of eight separate reflex centers re-activates proper neurological function of that muscle. This stimulation re-activates proper neurological function that that particular muscle immediately.
Once reactivated, the muscles are now prepared to respond to strengthening exercise. By defining these imbalances and correcting them using AMIT therapies, healing and rehabilitation can take place rapidly without the need for drugs or surgery. This allows for correction of instabilities, removal of pain, and an overall new level of performance.
Mind, Body, Spirit as One… The Healing Power Of Touch
Are you striving to improve your health, alleviate common aches and pains, discover performance, or enjoy an active, healthy lifestyle?
We believe in the human body’s inherent ability to heal without drugs or unnecessary surgeries. When severe injuries require surgery, AMIT practitioners work collaboratively to accelerate healing and support rehabilitation.
We believe if all the essential elements for healing are available to the body, it can repair and restore itself quickly. The AMIT method helps determine which essentials are missing and, once delivered, miraculous changes happen.
Using the AMIT method, the power of touch assists the body’s ability to heal, restores health and wellness, and enhances pain-free joint motion.
Healthy Lifestyles
Providing the body with needed nutrition is fundamental for vitality and active lifestyles.
