Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT)
Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT) Body System was developed by David Weinstock in collaboration with his peers in 1985.
Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT) involves Specialized Assessments and Treatments that utilize Motor Control Principles to make significant changes in movement patterns. NKT is designed to remove compensations and dysfunctional patterns that get stored in the brain from injuries. Our Motor Control Center in the brain (Cerebellum) coordinates movements. When an injury occurs, the Motor Control Center adapts to a compensation pattern to allow for movement and holds this pattern until it is forced to change.
What happens when neurokinetic principles are used?
- New learning of proper movement patterns are created.
- Reduced pain with movements.
- Increased efficiency of muscle control to affected areas.
Our Therapists are trained in NKT and utilize these principles in their assessments and treatments.
