RAPID Neurofascial Reset (N.F.R.) in Mississauga
Why Choose RAPID Neurofascial Reset at Redux Movement?
RAPID Neurofascial Reset (N.F.R.) is a newer, evidence-based manual therapy that focuses on the Central Nervous System, not just the muscle tissue.
Most chronic pain isn't just "tight muscles" it is nerve entrapment. When nerves become trapped by sticky fascia, they become hypersensitive. RAPID targets these free nerve endings in the connective tissue to "re-boot" the nervous system.
How it works:
It is Active: You won't just lie there. You will move your limb through a specific range of motion.
It is Intense: The therapist applies deep, high-tension pressure to the nerve entrapment while you move.
It is Fast: This intense input floods the brain with sensory information, forcing it to release the tension immediately.
What We Treat with RAPID
The Science: The Pain Gate Theory
RAPID works on the principle of "Sensory Overload."
According to the Gate Control Theory of Pain, the spinal cord can only process a certain amount of information at once. By stimulating the mechanoreceptors (touch sensors) with high-intensity pressure and movement, RAPID "closes the gate" to pain signals.
Essentially, we overwhelm the nervous system with safe sensation, forcing it to drop its protective guard. This reduces hypersensitivity and flushes fresh blood into the tissue to wash away inflammation.
