Nimmo Technique
The Nimmo Technique is a type of manual therapy that uses gentle, targeted pressure on muscles combined with movement to release tension, reduce spasms, and improve overall muscle function. It is designed to help the body relax tight muscles, improve circulation, and relieve nerve-related pain.

This helps the muscles release knots and adhesions, allowing them to function more efficiently. The technique can also reduce discomfort from chronic pain, sports injuries, or postural strain.
Benefits of Nimmo Technique:
- Reduces muscle tightness and spasms
- Relieves nerve pain and discomfort
- Improves flexibility and range of motion
- Helps muscles recover faster after injury
- Supports overall relaxation and healing
