TRIGENICS®

Miracles in Movement

 

COMBINING TREATMENT WITH EXERCISE TO “RETRAIN THE BRAIN”   

 

TRIGENICS® is a neuro-kinetic, sensorimotor assessment, treatment and training system which instantly relieves pain and increases strength and movement. It is currently practiced by over 2000 doctors, therapists and trainers in 20 countries worldwide. The complex procedures used in Trigenics® retrain the way the brain communicates it’s movement and/or pain signals with the muscles of the body. The treatments are either manual or involve the use of instruments or exercise equipment. The beneficial effects are instantaneous and seen immediately. If Trigenics® is what they need, patients having suffered with physical pain syndromes and/or movement dysfunctions always see strikingly measurable results on their first visit to a Trigenics® practitioner. (See videos) This will be the case; no matter how long they have had the condition and attended other therapies or how many doctors or therapists they have seen. Strength trainers using Trigenics® Power Augmentation training procedures on their clients see an unprecedented acceleration of muscle strength and size without drugs.

 

Historically Trigenics® was first in the world to combine simultaneous muscle treatment with resisted exercise.

 

Trigenics® is primarily used by specially trained manual medicine physicians such as osteopathic and chiropractic doctors as well as physiotherapists and elite licensed massage therapists. Personal fitness or athletic trainers as well as professional coaches also use specific variations of Trigenics® for full-body comprehensive muscular activity assessments and/or correction of imbalanced pull patterns and biomechanics as well as neurokinetic retraining. Trigenics® myoneural exercises are  prescribed by Trigenics®practitioners and trainers in accordance with each client or patients individual specific requirements. Athletes receiving Trigenics® immediately prior or during training or competition also experience instantaneous increases in strength and flexibility for immediate enhanced performance. Doctors, therapists and trainers often work together as a team on client or patient cases to provide full comprehensive treatment, training, rehabilitation and performance augmentation care.    

 

Trigenics® works by combining 3 treatment techniques which are applied at the same time for a therapeutic synergistic effect on the nervous system which is much greater than if you only applied one.
The 3 components are

  1. resistive exercise neurology

  2. muscle nerve-sensor stimulation

  3. bio-feedback breathing.

 

During a Trigenics® treatment, the doctor or therapist applies treatment to the muscle nerve-sensors while the patient performs specific resisted movement and breathing exercises.

 

Trigenics® is a unique and dramatically effective treatment system which utilizes recent advances in  applied functional neurology, developed by its founder, Dr. Allan Oolo Austin, with new manual medicine procedures. With Trigenics® your nervous system is treated to essentially reset the way your brain communicates with your body.

 Patients are inter-active participants in the treatment process rather than simple passive or active recipients. During the procedures, patients are required to move in specific directions and with specific amounts of force in order to generate neuromuscular monitoring reflexes which regulate movement. The Trigenics® practitioner simultaneously amplifies these nerve-sensor reflex signals by introducing various degrees of resistance to the movements while the patient exercises. The movement monitoring nerve-sensors, which are embedded in the muscles, are then also physically manipulated and/or stimulated to further amplify the signals they are already reflexively sending up to the brain. In addition, the patient simultaneously performs concentrative therapeutic breathing exercises to even further stimulate the nervous system and enhance treatment outcome. So many signals being generated at the same time causes an amplification of the normal movement-sensation messages that the brain receives. As such, an unnatural and unusually large barrage of neurological signals are all sent up to converge in the lower brain at the same time. (In neurology this is referred to as “amplitude summation” and “convergence projection”) The brain then, in turn, “resets” its communication by beneficially changing it’s down-going “movement” and “feeling” signals to the body. It is thought that the brain responds by increasing or decreasing nerve signal output.  This creates the effect of immediately improving joint and muscle function as well as instantly decreasing pain and increasing strength and movement. (This is analogous to how one “re-boots” their computer by sending a barrage of electrical signals to the CPU in order to restore function following an otherwise non-correctable malfunction when the screen or mouse freezes.)  

 

Trigenics® can be performed manually without medications or machines although many Trigenics® practitioners now use various static or vibratory treatment application devices and exercise equipment for the procedures. Doctors and therapists in the manual medicine fields, who use Trigenics®, often refer to it as the missing element of care.

 

Trigenics® myo-neural exercise methods and concepts can also be utilized directly by the public for state-of-the-art neuromuscular self treatment and training. Using Trigenics® exercise methods enables one to increase length of tight muscles and strength of weak muscles instantaneously. (A book on Trigenics® for the lower back and 2 DVDs on Trigenics® exercises for the public are available in the 2011  “store” section of this web site.) 

 

Because Trigenics® combines a number of treatment techniques or modalities for a cumulative effect on the nervous system which amplifies the therapeutic effect and enhances treatment outcome, it is referred to as a “multi-modal” treatment system. Dr. Allan Oolo Austin, the founder of Trigenics®, was the first in the world to introduce the concept of therapeutically combining soft tissue treatment with resisted exercises for a therapeutic neurological amplification effect. His work in developing the “resistance loading reflex” or “Austin response” is considered groundbreaking by many in the applied functional neurology and manual medicine fields.

Trigenics® is only practiced by licensed doctors or therapists who have successfully achieved post graduate specialty education from the Trigenics® Institute of Myoneural Medicine and who hold a current license to practice Trigenics® as a Registered Trigenics® Physician or Practitioner with the designation RTP®. The Trigenics® Institute is co-sponsored for health professional CE credits by National University of Health Sciences in Chicago, U.S.A.

The unique Trigenics® Myoneural Medicine system involves simultaneously applying 3 treatment techniques at the same time for an effect which is much greater than if only one was used. The summative, synergistic effect on the nervous system enables rapid and dramatic results otherwise not attainable.

THE 3 COMPONENTS OF TRIGENICS ARE:

  1. RESISTED EXERCISES. The patient performs exercise movements which are resisted either by the doctor/therapist or with the use of devices or equipment. (Devices are available which measure applied muscle force.) If exercise equipment is used, different loads are used for different muscles and body types. These force-specific resisted movement patterns are designed to cause augmented firing of reflex nerve impulses from the muscles to the brain. ("Myoneural')
  2. MUSCLE TREATMENT. The doctor/therapist directly treats the muscle with deformative traction or vibratory techniques in such a way as to stimulate increased firing of the the nerve-sensors which monitor movement and feeling. The treatment is applied to the muscles, tendons or ligaments by the doctor/therapist using their hands or a variety of treatment devices .This type of soft tissue treatment also causes augmented firing of up-going impulses to the brain.
  3. FOCUSED BREATHING . The patient is required to perform concentrative focused breathing while the doctor/therapist provides verbal feedback as to how the patient can enhance the neurological effect of their movements so as to enhance the treatment response and outcome. Neurologists refer to this therapeutic procedural concept as "biofeedback".

Testimonial

Trigenics® is remarkably effective in providing reprieve from neuromusculo-skeletal conditions, chronic pain syndromes, all forms of tendonitis, sprain/strain injuries, muscle spasm.

It is also used to improve myoneural function in patients with neurological conditions such as stroke, cerebral palsy and Trigeminal Neuralgia.

Trigenics® is safe and non forceful and can be used effectively on a broad range of patients including infants and seniors. In seniors it has been found to be very effective and does not require and forceful joint manipulations. It is also an excellent  alternative to high velocity neck manipulation.

 

What can I expect at my initial Trigenics® examination?

At your first visit, a thorough history will be taken to identify your current state of health. You will be screened for any specific physical injuries or problems that may need to be addressed with more traditional rehabilitation strategies. When you undergo your Trigenics® examination, you will be tested from top to bottom to identify areas of neurological inhibition and neuromuscular imbalances associated with  “sensorimotor” and energetic dysfunction. On the first day, following your examination, you will usually be treated unless further testing in the way of radiographs, MRIs or other diagnostic tests are necessary.

 

What results should I expect with Trigenics® treatments?

On the day of your first treatment, you will usually  notice measurable positive changes.  It will not matter how many other doctors of therapists you have seen or how long you have had the condition. Trigenics® usually gets results on day 1!  Some common outcomes include, relief from chronic or acute pain, increased range of motion, a feeling of euphoria or groundedness, improved physical confidence, significant increases in strength and energy and improved sleep. Some people may experience a strong emotional release after treatment if they have been storing emotions in their muscles. Because the Trigenics® testing and treatment procedures are so extensive, a small minority of patients experience mild soreness for 1 or 2 days following the exam and/or treatment. Should this occur, it is a usually a normal and healthy response. Should you require a course of treatments to completely correct the problem, 6-12 treatment sessions will be conducted before a reassessment to determine if the treatment protocol needs to be adjusted.

Remember that TRIGENICS OFTEN HELPS WHERE ALL ELSE HAS FAILED.
