Techniques and Protocols of Axotherapy
In Axotherapy, each session is designed to address the unique needs of the patient, utilizing precise techniques that combine spinal manipulation, conscious breathing, and mind-body connection. This holistic approach not only alleviates physical discomfort but also promotes nervous system balance and fosters an overall rejuvenating experience.
Spinal Adjustments
Spinal adjustments are the core of Axotherapy. These manipulations, performed precisely and professionally, aim to restore the optimal alignment of the spine.
- Scientific Explanation: The spine houses a network of segmental nerve circuits that connect the brain to the body. When alignment is compromised, nerve impulses may be disrupted, affecting both muscle function and the health of internal organs.
- Impact on the ANS: Adjustments relieve pressure on the nerves, improving communication between the central and peripheral nervous systems. This process balances the autonomic nervous system (ANS), promoting a shift from the sympathetic (stress) state to the parasympathetic (relaxation and regeneration) state.
- Additional Benefits: In addition to pain reduction, spinal adjustments improve posture, increase joint mobility, and release accumulated tension in the body.
Breath Synchronization
Conscious breathing plays a vital role in Axotherapy, enhancing the effects of each adjustment.
- Active Relaxation: Before each adjustment, the patient is guided to perform deep, controlled breaths, reducing muscle tension and facilitating the manipulation.
- Dynamic Synchronization: During the adjustment, the therapist coordinates the movement with the patient’s breathing rhythm, maximizing the procedure’s effectiveness.
- Physiological Benefits: Deep breathing activates the vagus nerve, the primary regulator of the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting an immediate sense of calm and well-being.
Energetic Visualization
Beyond physical techniques, Axotherapy integrates the mind-body connection through energetic visualization.
- Guided Techniques: During adjustments, the patient is encouraged to visualize energy flowing freely along their spine, like an unblocked river revitalizing every cell in the body.
- Focus on the Present: This mental exercise not only strengthens the mind-body connection but also helps the patient stay fully present during the session, enhancing the benefits.
- Bioenergy Strengthening: Actively involving the mind stimulates neuroplastic processes that reinforce neural circuits associated with well-being, improving the body’s self-regulation capacity.
