NeuroKinetic Therapy (NKT) is a way of working with pain and tightness that looks at how your brain controls movement, not just where it hurts.
Your brain has a “movement control centre” that decides which muscles switch on and which ones switch off every time you move. When you’ve had injuries, stress, surgery, scars, or long-term compensation, that system can get a bit confused.
One muscle starts doing too much, another stops doing enough — and over time, pain shows up somewhere completely unexpected.
Instead of chasing symptoms, NKT uses specific muscle testing to ask the nervous system:
“What’s actually driving this problem?”
We then:
A few years ago, I developed severe hip pain.
It got so bad I could barely walk. I had to stop exercising completely.
There was no clear injury. Nothing I could point to and say, “Yep — that’s what caused it.”
I did everything:
Each time, I’d get maybe a day or two of relief, and then the pain would come straight back.
Eventually, I saw a Level 3 NeuroKinetic Therapy practitioner.
In one session, he traced my hip pain back to something that seemed completely unrelated:
👉 a scar on my head from an injury I’d had about two months before the hip pain started.
That scar was interfering with my nervous system’s motor control — and my hip was paying the price.
He treated the scar.
The next day, my hip pain was gone.
It never came back.
That was five years ago.
I am fortunate to have obtained this same level of NKT training. My life's mission is to reduce suffering wherever I can, to the best of my ability.
