MYK System Therapy: A Gentle Approach to Treating Brain Tumors

If you or someone you know is dealing with the effects of a brain tumor, you may be interested in learning about MYK System Therapy. This gentle technique, developed by Dr. Michael Uriarte, D.C., focuses on balancing posture and compensations to help alleviate symptoms such as aphasia. MYK System Therapy involves assessing the client's posture and treating the nerve root(s) associated with any imbalances through gentle massage. The sessions, which last up to 20 minutes, can be conducted while the client is seated or lying on a massage table in various positions. The best part is that the client remains fully clothed throughout the treatment, making it a comfortable and non-invasive option. One of the great things about MYK System Therapy is its versatility. While it is primarily used to treat aphasia associated with post-stroke and brain tumors, it can also be beneficial for individuals with other specific complaints such as migraines and stomach aches. This therapy is suitable for clients who are wheelchair-bound or bedridden, making it accessible to a wide range of individuals. The goal of MYK System Therapy is to alleviate pain, improve posture, and enhance range of motion. Immediate results can often be seen, but significant improvements may require 3-5 sessions, depending on the duration of the client's condition. It's important to note that this therapy is not covered by insurance, so it's essential to consider the cost when making an appointment.
