Neuromuscular Therapy at Medical & Sports Massage in Sandy Springs targets pain at its source—the nerve. Our therapists work layer by layer to release impingements, restore movement, and calm the nervous system. This isn’t just deep pressure; it’s precise, trained care that relieves sciatica, migraines, TMJ, and frozen shoulder.

What is Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT)?

NMT is a specialized approach that blends science and skilled hands. By working directly with nerve pathways inside the muscle fibers, we reduce inflammation, expand space for oxygen, and retrain how nerves and muscles fire together.

Unlike cookie-cutter “deep tissue,” MSM’s approach is nerve-first, not knot-first. Every session is tailored to your body—sometimes lighter, targeted techniques create faster, longer-lasting relief than brute-force pressure.

How we work with NMT Clients

Every appointment begins with your health history, pain points, and movement assessment. From there:

  • Layer-by-layer release – Access entrapped muscles safely instead of forcing deep pressure.

  • Integrated modalities – Blend NMT with Lymphatic Drainage, Graston, Cupping, or Medical Massage depending on need.

  • Whole-body approach – Look beyond the single pain point to correct issues along the kinetic chain.

  • Tailored session lengths – 60–90 minutes recommended for balanced results; 30 minutes for localized work.

FAQs about NMT

Is NMT massage painful?
You may feel mild soreness, like after a workout. Relief often starts immediately, with deeper improvement after 48–72 hours. Hydration and light icing help minimize soreness.
How soon will I feel relief after NMT?
Most clients notice improvement during the session. Results typically continue to build over the next few days.
How often should I schedule NMT sessions?
Frequency depends on your condition. Chronic pain may call for weekly sessions, while athletes often combine NMT with maintenance treatments before and after events.
Is NMT safe for seniors?
Yes. With trained therapists, NMT is safe for arthritis, spinal issues, and chronic conditions. Adjustments are made for fragility and comfort.
How is NMT different from deep tissue or medical massage?
Deep tissue works into muscle layers. Medical massage combines multiple techniques for specific diagnoses. NMT focuses directly on nerve pathways, making it the most effective option for impingements, migraines, TMJ, and posture correction.
Can athletes benefit from NMT?
Absolutely. NMT reduces recovery time, prevents recurring injuries, and improves performance by balancing nerve and muscle function.
