How Does It Help?
Arthritis
PDMT
moves toxins, edema, and inflammation away from muscles
and joints; it removes restrictive factors that limit the
range of motion of the joints.
Carpal
Tunnel Syndrome
PDMT relieves
congestion, restriction, and entrapment from the median nerve pathway through
the carpal tunnel at the wrist; it releases restrictions in adjacent muscles
and joints, which also may entrap the median nerve.
Constipation
and Digestive Distress
PDMT improves
tone and function of limp, flaccid muscles in the colon wall, contributing
toward improved peristaltic action.
Headaches
PDMT releases
adherent factors in the neck, shoulders,and jaw, relaxing muscular tension,
pain, and headache; it also restores range of motion and balance to the
neck/head and blood flow to the brain.
Heart
Problems
PDMT restores
the muscular pathways affecting the heart; it also relieves congestion
from around the heart and improves the tone and texture of the muscular
walls of the blood vessels themselves.
Joint
and Muscle Pain
PDMT releases
adherent/restrictive muscles which compromise the free and easy movement
of the muscles and the joints; it also moves the build-up of metabolic
substances within the muscles and joints that can produce pain. It improves
the range of motion and lubrication within the joint capsules.
Neck
and Back Pain
PDMT 're-moisturizes'
dry, adherent back and neck muscles which restrict ease of movement and
increase the incidence of spasm; it also restores balance to structural
overcompensation adaptations that the body uses to accommodate pain or
muscle damage. It focuses, in exacting detail, on the intricate spinal
musculature, correcting the specific source of pain; It helps spinal adjustments
to hold more effectively.
Occupational
Injuries
Occupational
injuries often result from overuse of a muscle in a repetitive movement,
causing muscle strain and inflammation, followed by adherence/restriction.
PDMT removes the toxic congestion first, then releases the restrictions
in each joint adjacent to the problem area. Both phases of PDMT are needed
to prevent the problem from recurring. Inflammation caused by cumulative
trauma disorder (CTD), repetitive strain injury (RSI), or outright trauma
injury, can be dispersed in this way.
Paralysis
PDMT 're-moisturizes'
dry, adherent muscle, thereby restoring fresh oxygenated blood to the muscle
cells. Oxygen at the cellular level is necessary to allow the nerve to
'spark' and create the muscle contraction; it also releases entrapment
of nerves that may 'appear' to be paralyzed.
Poor
Circulation
PDMT restores
circulation to areas where muscular tension, dryness, or entrapment have
impeded blood flow; it also helps cold hands and feet, dry skin, varicose
veins, old injuries which are slow in healing, and other circulatory problems.
Sciatic
Pain
PDMT resolves
the inflammation and entrapment of the sciatic nerve at the specific nerve
root areas along the spine as well as along the length of the nerve pathway,
addressing the piriformis muscle and each additional area of potential
entrapment. It also restores dry or adherent muscle irritating the nerve
and balances the body musculature for even weight bearing.
Sports
Injuries
PDMT quickly
reduces inflammation and swelling in the injured tissue; it's cross-fiber
action also prevents the build-up of scar tissue. PDMT restores muscle
dryness, adherency, joint range of motion, and structural imbalances, all
of which serve as both rehabilitation and prevention for the athlete. PDMT
enhances and combines well with orthopedic, chiropractic, and sports medicine
treatment. The cross-fiber technique has long been acknowledged for its
effectiveness in the treatment of sports injuries.
Tendinitis
and Bursitis
PDMT reduces
inflammation and congestion surrounding bone, cartilage, joint capsule,
joint spaces and distressed bursae. It isolates and relieves restrictive
muscles that 'pull' on the joint, and cause pain, subluxation, and compromised
range of motion.
Trauma
and Car Accidents
PDMT moves
inflammatory congestion from newly injured tissue, diminishing the potential
for scar tissue and permanent tissue damage; it also corrects muscle damage
caused by the recent trauma. Additionally, PDMT searches out 'old' muscle
damage that, if left unchecked, may greatly impede restoration of the recent
trauma. Limitations resulting from old, untreated fractures respond very
well to PDMT, even after many years.
Whiplash
Whiplash
can cause damage to the minute fibers of the muscles, tendons and ligaments
of the neck and back. It often also results in congestion and damage to
the sub-occipital and sublingual muscles. PDMT removes the congestion and
tension from these injured areas, relieving pain and impaired movement;
it also corrects the damaged muscles and fascia. If left uncorrected, undiscovered
muscle damage can lead to chronic neck pain.
