Important Facts to Know

  1. A spastic muscle stays contracted. It cannot be lengthened, as a normal healthy one, until the spasm is released.

  2. Spasm in a muscle can last for years, and will compromise blood circulation, entrap nerves and compress joints.

  3. Strain counterstrain technique is the most effective technique to release muscle spasm.

  4. It is counterproductive to either stretch or massage spastic muscles. These techniques further irritate the nervous system and typically increase pain.

  5. Joints (2 or 3 bones attached to each other) cannot move. They are pulled by muscles.

  6. Joints cannot stay where they belong after being manipulated if the muscles which surround them are still tight and spastic.

  7. The foundation of the body is in the hips because the body’s gravity center is there. We have a “righting reflex,” which means that we need to keep the eyes leveled horizontally all the time. If they are not leveled, we get dizzy and unable to function. All muscle activity between the hips and the eyes is just the attempt of the nervous system to keep the eyes leveled according to the position of the hips.
