Deep Tissue Center

Without the Medi-speak we will briefly outline what scar tissue is and what it does to a finely tuned athlete. Muscular Adhesions are the mechanism the body uses to repair muscle tissue that has broken down or injured.  When muscle is broken down during a vigorous work out, strained, or injured, the body begins a process that involves laying down fibers on the damaged muscle tissue.  These fibers do not always follow the grain of the musculature but lay cross and diagonally.  The muscle then remains fluid and flexible up to the point of the scar tissue where it no longer contracts or expands properly. 

This process, while part of the healing and repair mechanism of the body begins to hinder an athlete's progress.  For example, an athlete who has been training seriously for 5 years finds that he is less flexible, yet, stronger and faster.  The myth is, that the athlete believes that his tightness and inflexiblity is the price you pay for being bigger, faster, or stronger.  Nothing can be further from the truth!  The truth is that when you lose flexibility you've lost some function of a muscle.  Lets assume that you've lost 13% of your flexibility due to fibrous adhesions.  What that means is that you're using less muscle, yet your performance is still decent.

Now, let us knock down those muscular adhesions and add 10% more function to any muscle group that you use in your sport and see what happens!  We know what happens.  We've seen Olympic Gold Medals won, World Records set, NFL Combine Times drop, Scholarships won, Power Lifting Records set, and MANY, MANY, MANY other super results.  

Back when we started in 1990 soft tissue work was very rare and usually only available to high caliber athletes.  We have taken this same technology and made it available to anybody suffering from pain or injury.   Scar Tissue or Muscular Adhesions are removed by a hands on, aggressive approach that is not only more effective but drastically reduces recovery time.  Forms of Neuro-Muscular Re-education, Myofascial Technologies, and Kinetic Therapies give us the ability to get into the deep fibers of the muscles and break up the adhesions that are binding.

This is how we got our name!  Unlike other clinics, we are willing to take the necessary time to get into the athletes musculature, locate the problem, then go deep into the muscle tissue and break up the scar tissue that was limiting range of motion and strength.  Once the adhesions are broken up the patient usually experiences an increase in range of motion, strength, and speed. 

Now we can use our exclusive Body Pattern Synchronization System and put it all together.  Once the muscles have been released, its time to break the patterns of compensation in the supporting muscle groups that were affected.  This is how you go from injury rehab to performance enhancing therapies.
