Trigenics

What is Trigenics?

Well when I first heard of it I thought it was a Star Trek reject from a Plasma Manifold but I did some research and lo and behold its a great technique developed in Canada by the wonderful Dr Allan Ollo Austin..

Basically its Sensory Motor Restoration system, Now what does that mean if I don't have a PhD in Plasma Manifold repair?

Well basically its a technique where you need to train or reprogram the nerve in tandem with the muscle /or bone dysfunction while its speaking to the brain in order to reduce pain, rehabilitate and strengthen the dysfunction and speed up return to normal tasks or sport.

 

It uses a technique of elongating and strengthening the muscle using effective breathing to restore the issue to pre injury state.

 

Officially The 3 components of Trigenics are:

 

1. Resisted exercise neurology
2. Muscle nerve treatment
3. Biofeedback breathing.

 

During the procedure, I apply these elongating and strengthening techniques to the muscle nerve-sensors where the issue is through assessment, while you, the patient use resisted movement and breathing exercise to get the desired effect.

I only finished the course 4 weeks ago and already find it to be the missing link in treating Musco-Skeletal disorders especially back and shoulder pain etc..

In Layman's terms my previous qualifications allowed me to treat the soft tissue injury/dysfunction and while we were restoring full muscular functionality to the area, I wasn't necessarily treating the nerve dysfunction that normally follows an issue especially say bad back where person was compensating off a dodgy hip for a few years. You may fix the soft tissue problem but have you addressed the initial cause and accompanying compensation that went with it?

Me thinks not!

Common Therapist mistake. Well Trigenics seems to fix this missing link and so far so good.

So if you want to read more go to link under this paragraph and if you have an issue that you have tried many therapies like Chiropractor, Physio, Osteopathy and they haven't worked, Just give me a call and I will Trigenics you back to full health..

 

List of some of the issues that Trigenics is helpful for:

  • acute or chronic injuries

  • all forms of tendonitis including: 

    • tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) and 

    • golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis), 

  • all sprain/ strain injuries, 

  • carpal tunnel syndrome, 

  • disc herniations

  • frozen shoulder, 

  • headaches, 

  • jaw pain (TMJ), 

  • joint conditions, 

  • leg pain from sciatica, 

  • muscular conditions, 

  • neck pain, 

  • neurological conditions: 

    • trigeminal neuralgia

    • Spinal cord injuries

  • pain syndromes, 

  • plantar fasciitis, 

  • pre and post joint surgeries and joint replacement surgeries

  • radiating arm and head pain, 

  • sports injuries, 

  • thoracic outlet syndrome, 

  • upper and lower back pain, 

  • whiplash/ auto accidents, 

 

The brain sends signals down through nervous system to control the systems of the body including your muscular system. There are nerve sensors in your muscles which send signals, (reflexes), to the brain telling the brain what the muscle is doing in order to coordinate movement. .

1. HIP PAIN

 Dear Dr. Austin, 

For the past 3 years, I experienced recurring pain in my right hip. Cortisone shots and the opinion of an orthopaedic surgeon offered no relief.  In the fall of 2002, the pain returned and this time stayed.  I couldn’t perform even the simple things of life.  Sitting down was no problem, but standing became impossible. Then, I remembered how you had put my wife back on her feet from a wheelchair during the past summer.  Thanks to you and Trigenics, I am back to normal and enjoying life again. 

Thank you  Dr. Austin and staff for a successful treatment.

Harold J. Walker

 

2. PLANTAR FASCIITIS
Dear Dr. King,
I just want to thank you for your treatment of my Plantar Fasciitis.
I had got the special shoe inserts designed for this condition, which helped a little bit. But the pain was so excruciating I could not do any physical activities, including swimming.
After the first treatment I was able to walk home from the bus stop. After 4 treatments I could start walking my dogs a gain. My housework is no longer behind, and I am not scared to stand on my feet anymore. One other benefit is the weight loss I am experiencing since I can once again do physical activities.
I am just like a kid in a candy store with all the activities I could not do before because of the pain.
Once again thank you for giving me another chance at living a life pain free.
Forever grateful,
Janette Chong		  

3. I tried chiro, massage, physio, everything! Trigenics® is the only thing that's worked.
