How Does the PMT Work?

​

The PMT acts on muscles in the following ways:

• Breaks down scar tissue and adhesions, that have constricted muscle movement and formed knots, freeing impinged joints and nerves.

• Increases nutrient-dense oxygenated blood flow to muscle tissue, speeding up muscle recovery.

• Penetrates through various fascia layers enabling muscles to relax and release latent lactic acid and allow lymphatic drainage. This can also help reduce muscle soreness post-workout.

• Expedites the rehabilitation process of muscles that have been injured due to trauma, surgery, or disease (with physician and/or physical therapist’s consultation and permission).

• Stimulates muscles and prevents non-use atrophy while also improving reflex responses in which the nerves respond to stimulation.

• Loosens constricted fascia surrounding muscle tissue.

• Strengthens muscles in individuals impacted by various forms of disability, improving the ability to participate in physical activity, exercise, or sport.

• Allows treated muscles to elongate enabling more elasticity to achieve a deeper stretch.

• Increases release of endorphins, the body’s pain relieving hormone.

• Enables muscle contractions up to 30 times more powerful than normal voluntary muscle contraction.
