NOT Technique
What Is NOT
Our low force adjustment protocol NOT, stands for Neural Organisation Technique.
NOT is a series of techniques combining chiropractic spinal care with Applied Kinesiology, designed to improve nervous system function by re-organising the nervous system so that the individual can function effectively and efficiently without pain or distress.
The NOT principles are based on the survival systems of the human species: feeding, flight/fight reproduction and immune and following the theory that the body is an integrated whole – self-healing and self-regulating.. The aim of NOT is to move you into a rested, self-healing state, by decreasing your Sympathetic Nervous system activity and ensuring your survival systems can be engaged as required.
Nerve irritation often occurs in people due to micro trauma (e.g. slouching/ posture), macro trauma (larger injuries/ car accidents), or through chemical or emotional stressors (e.g. diet/ sleep/ mental health).
How does NOT work?
N.O.T. works to identify neural ‘disorganisation’ that comes from your body’s unresolved reaction to everyday stressors (e.g. emotional stress, injuries and biochemical changes). N.O.T. procedures involve a series of spinal and brain health checks designed to review the health of your nervous system. This ‘system check’ basically explores your functional status for the root of the injury or bio-mechanical instability.
