Nimmo® Receptor-Tonus / Deep-Tissue Muscle Technique

At Diamond Bar Spine Center, spinal decompression is not a one-size-fits-all treatment. Different spinal conditions, body types and levels of pain may require different approaches. Following an evaluation, Dr. George Than, D.C. may select or combine several conservative techniques to help decrease mechanical stress, improve spinal mobility, address muscular tension and restore function.

Nimmo® Receptor-Tonus / Deep-Tissue Muscle Technique

Not all back and neck pain originates solely from the discs or joints. Muscles and other soft tissues can become tight, tender and painful and may contribute to altered movement patterns.

The Nimmo Receptor-Tonus Technique is a focused manual soft-tissue approach associated with the work of Dr. Raymond Nimmo. Dr. George Than, D.C. uses targeted pressure and deep-tissue techniques to address areas of muscular tension and tenderness identified during examination.

This component of treatment may be used to:

For appropriate patients, addressing the muscular component of a spinal condition can be an important part of a broader functional recovery program.

Is This Right for Me?

Back and neck pain does not always come from the discs or joints, and an MRI cannot show muscle tension. Whether soft-tissue work could help depends on your symptoms and examination findings. In a virtual consultation, Dr. George Than, D.C., can talk through your symptoms and help you decide on next steps.

Evaluation First. Treatment Second.

Our philosophy is simple: understand the condition, determine whether conservative care is appropriate, and then develop a treatment strategy around the patient—not around a machine.
