What is Manual Neural Manipulation?
Neural mobilisation techniques can offer potential benefits to the endocrine system and stress management. These techniques focus on gentle mobilizing and optimizing neural pathways in the body, which can have indirect endocrine and stress- level effects. How does it work?
Enhances Neural Communication: Osteopathic neural mobilisation techniques, such as specific manual therapy and gentle stretching exercises, can help improve neural communication between different parts of the body, including the endocrine glands. This enhanced communication may support the optimal functioning of the endocrine system. The Vagus Nerve impacts most of the digestive system, as well crucial visceral organs involved in hormonal balance such as the Thyroid, Liver, Adrenals, Kidneys and Pancreas.
Promotes Relaxation Response: By targeting and reducing neural tension through osteopathic techniques, it is believed that the body’s stress response may be positively influenced. Neural mobilisation can stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting a state of relaxation and reducing the impact of chronic stress on the body.
Alleviates Musculoskeletal Tension: Chronic muscular tension often coexists with stress. Osteopathic techniques aimed at mobilising neural structures can help release muscular tension, improving overall musculoskeletal health.
