MYK-Myokinesthetics

MYK-Myokinesthetics is highly effective technique that targets nerve function to treat chronic pain and illness, EDS, and other various conditions. This technique eliminates the “thumb poking” approach providing a more comfortable experience. Results occur faster due to the targeting of specific muscle groups related to the affected area.

Currently, 2 out of 5 certified MYK-Myokinesthetics clinicians found at Parr PT in Austin and Houston, Texas.
