Dural tissue Therapy
Is the treatment of the Dural & Meningeal tissues that can be damaged in many ways.
Common injuries to the Dural and Meningeal tissue are caused by:
High velocity injuries like whiplash or other motor vehicle accidents
High force Traumas from falls, sporting injuries and physical traumas
Concussion and head injuries damaging the Meningeal & Dural tissues
Disc bulges causing dural tissue damage from compression of the nerve or inflammation of the dural tissue leading to scar tissue and pain.
These types of trauma’s can lead to damage of the Dural or Meningeal tissues leading to pain, Numbness, Pins & Needles symptoms & in some occasions loss of strength in the musculoskeletal system. The most common symptom of Dural and Meningeal tissue damage is a reduction in Range of Motion.
