Neuromuscular Re-education (NMR)

Dr. Loughlin is also a practitioner of Neuromuscular Re-education, “The Soft Tissue Injury Solution”. It is a hands-on technique/approach to the evaluation and functional treatment of soft tissue injuries. Injury to the muscles, connective tissue, fascia, and tendons are associated with pain, inflammation and limitation of motion. Adhesion’s occur as a result of this damage and inflammation. Working the effected joints with deep tendon massage and the NMR technique is essential to the elimination of pain and the return to the fullest possible Range of Motion.

Macrobiotics

Dr. Loughlin studied macrobiotics for 37 years and has taken extensive physician training at the Kushi Institute. He has studied with Michio Kushi over the years who is considered the world’s foremost expert in traditional oriental medicine. He takes a macrobiotic approach to health which includes a whole foods diet.
