Lyno Therapy

Lyno therapy deals with correcting bio-mechanical imbalances (effectively working on the cause of injuries).  Any repetitive movement will cause certain muscles to work harder and these harder-working muscles will require more support.  The body’s overlying fascia (the layer of tissue above the muscles) tends to contract towards those areas, leaving other areas with less support.  Once an imbalance occurs in the distribution of fascia, symptoms will start appearing in the areas with less fascia support. This is evident in chronic hamstring or groin tears in rugby-players where the powerful quadriceps (thighs) and glutei (buttock muscles) demand excessive fascia support.

Lyno uses a series of strength and stretch assessment techniques to determine where the fascia is misaligned and therefore, which areas need treating.  Specific release techniques are used to re-align the fascia.  Once clients are familiar with this technique they are able to prevent future injuries themselves.
