Fascial Abrasion Technique
Developed by Dr. Mark Scappaticci, the FAT-Tool is much different than the many assisted soft tissue mobilization tools on the market. FAT-Tool has a patented textured surface that allows for maximal tissue tension release without excessive pressure and without bruising.

Nutritional Reflex Technique™

Noninvasive form of Muscle Testing, dynamic tool for gathering and evaluating information regarding physical, neuromuscular and biochemical balances within the body. It involves testing the reaction of a large muscle group, such as a leg, to slight pressure in response to various forms of stimuli and interactions with acupuncture points.

Fascial Stretch Therapy®

Developed by Ann and Chris Frederick, is a type of stretching that targets not only the muscles but the fascia, the connective tissue around the muscles, bones and joints. FST also targets also targets the entire joint and joint capsule, using traction to remove restrictions from movement and to stimulate lubrication.

Proprioceptive Deep Tendon Reflex (P-DTR®)

P-DTR® www.Dr.Palomar.com Proprioceptive Deep Tendon Reflex (P-DTR®) was developed by orthopedic surgeon Dr. José Palomar. This work recognizes sensory receptors, and the way the body processes the information from these receptors. Using a comprehensive system of muscle testing and neural challenges, involved receptors can be located and normal function can be quickly restored. Most other therapeutic modalities deal with the “hardware” of the body (massage, chiropractic, joint manipulations, etc.), neglecting the fact that much of the pain and dysfunction we experience is often actually a problem with our “software” and how the brain regulates information. P-DTR® addresses issues at the level of the brain and its sensory receptors. Using a comprehensive system of muscle testing and neural stimuli, dysfunctional receptors can be located and normal function can be restored. By restoring normal function to these receptors, the body will function based on “good” information from the brain, and our body gains the ability to function at its absolute best. P-DTR can help:

  • Resolve lingering dysfunction from pain and chronic injuries

  • Increase mobility

  • Improve muscle function & strength

  • Improve overall stability, balance, & coordination

  • Greatly increase performance for athletics

  • Increase mobility

  • Treat the source of the problem, not just the symptoms

  • Achieve results that are long-lasting

P-DTR® is unlike anything you have ever experienced. It is fast. It is precise. It is effective. It has been described by NAC members as an “incredible experience” that has improved their quality of life and allowed them to move easier, work out harder, and do things they haven’t been able to do in years.
