IMT is an advanced form of manual therapy that utilizes highly specific palpation techniques to identify dysfunction in the body and facilitate recovery. While most physical therapy approaches are directed at developing compensations for dysfunction, IMT focuses on improving the underlying structural deficits in order to optimize physiology and function and thereby eliminate the need for compensation. When the causative problem is eliminated, the constraints on the body are removed and the opportunity for movement and function are restored naturally. The gentleness of the techniques permits application in all ages and diagnoses without contraindication. IMT is non-invasive and highly effective.
