  Strain/Counterstrain is used for the effective alleviation of chronic muscle spasm and related pain. Spasm reduction and normalization of muscle tone is achieved by the placement of the client's extremity or trunk into positions of greatest comfort. Each position is specific to the treated muscle. The position is maintained for a short period of time to inhibit the hyperactive nervous system activity producing the painful muscle spasm.

Strain/Counterstrain treatment results in a partial or total reduction of protective muscle spasm causing improved the joint function and pain reduction. This technique is extremely effective in the treatment of all traumatic injuries regardless of underlying causes.
