Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT) is a logical, clinical, modern and specialised form of massage therapy. It features a range of soft-tissue diagnostic and therapeutic treatment techniques that involve the skilled manipulation of the soft tissues of the body (muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments, nerves and connective tissue) with the aim of normalising activity in these tissues.

A neuromuscular therapist uses manual and diagnostic techniques to gather information regarding areas of soft tissue changes such as altered muscle tone, tissue fibrosis, edema and hypersensitivity. NMT considers any changes in sensations or pain perceptions.
