Proprioceptive Deep Tendon Reflex
"The future of Manual Therapy"

With Neuroreceptor Therapy, I aim to identify the stimuli your nervous system cannot tolerate, in order to change the symptoms of your problem (pain, stiffness, sensitivity, dizziness, etc.). By treating the root cause, we eliminate the source of the issue so your nervous system no longer needs to protect itself, allowing you to live a completely normal life.

What is P-DTR?

Neuroreceptor Therapy, also known as Proprioceptive Deep Tendon Reflex (P-DTR), is the original work and research of orthopedic surgeon Dr. José Palomar. This approach recognizes that sensory receptor input (and how the brain processes information from these receptors) is essential in determining neuromuscular responses throughout the body. When proprioceptive feedback is abnormal, motor control is impaired, leading to pain and dysfunction.

Using a comprehensive system of muscle testing and neural challenges, dysfunctional sensory receptors can be identified and corrected, quickly restoring normal function and eliminating pain. Most therapeutic modalities focus only on the body’s “hardware,” neglecting the fact that much of the pain and dysfunction we experience often stems from issues with our internal “software.” P-DTR® provides access to the software coding of the human nervous system, allowing you to quickly identify and address the root causes of pain and dysfunction throughout the body.

How Does It Works P-DTR?

The primary goal of P-DTR® is to normalize the afferent input from sensory receptors throughout the body. P-DTR® enables the brain to make more precise decisions, providing a more accurate reflection of the environment.

In a normally functioning receptor, the signal trigger threshold (action potential) is maintained at a normal level. The receptor has the resources to self-regulate and is not overly sensitized. It sends precise information to the central nervous system (CNS) about the environment.

In dysfunctional receptors, the signal becomes either too high or too low (hyper- or hyposensitive). Each dysfunctional receptor directly alters motor output via the CNS. As a result, each dysfunctional receptor causes inappropriate facilitation or inhibition of muscles throughout the body.

By using manual muscle testing, we can identify muscles that have become inhibited (neurologically weak) or hypertonic (neurologically protected) to locate the receptor dysfunction causing these changes.

By identifying both the primary receptor problem and its main compensation, treatment using the deep tendon reflex can be applied to normalize the tone and response of these receptors.

The deep tendon reflex acts to reprogram the current system and “reset” or normalize the neuro-performance of dysfunctional receptors. Muscles associated with these dysfunctional receptors will then have normalized tone, leading to an immediate change in their movement patterns and action potential.

It is important to note that P-DTR® is a non-invasive approach that respects the body as a whole. I will be delighted to guide you through this revolutionary technique, caring for you by exploring and addressing your physiological and personal needs.

What Symptoms Can Be Treated with P-DTR?

P-DTR works with symptoms and syndromes such as muscle pain and discomfort, limited range of motion or pain that prevents proper movement, joint pain, hip pain, neck pain, and any other painful symptom, numbness, burning sensations in the limbs, headaches, dizziness, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), urogenital dysfunctions, digestive problems such as chronic abdominal pain or reflux, hypersensitivity to light, sounds or other stimuli, post-operative rehabilitation, post-traumatic syndrome, rehabilitation after sports injuries, weight problems, and food intolerances.

P-DTR addresses diagnoses such as lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow), spondylogenic low back pain, sciatic tunnel syndrome (ischialgia, ischiodynia, ischioneuralgia), sacroiliitis (sacroiliac joint disease), intercostal neuropathy, reflex-tonic syndrome, myofascial pain syndrome (of any muscle) very similar to reflex-tonic syndrome, facet syndrome (pain in the zygapophyseal joints), humeroscapular periarthritis (scapulohumeral), myogenic dysfunction of the masticatory muscles (chewing/masseter), lumbar sciatica due to compression tunnel syndrome (piriformis syndrome), thoracic outlet syndrome, suprascapular nerve entrapment, musculocutaneous nerve compression, lateral cutaneous nerve of the forearm, pronator teres syndrome, anterior interosseous nerve entrapment (Kiloh-Nevin syndrome), carpal tunnel syndrome, cubital tunnel syndrome (ulnar nerve), ulnar nerve entrapment (deep motor branch) (pisohamate hiatus syndrome), radial nerve entrapment, posterior interosseous nerve entrapment (radial nerve, deep branch), digital nerve entrapment, sciatic nerve entrapment, common peroneal nerve entrapment (at fibular head), deep peroneal nerve entrapment, superficial (sensory) peroneal nerve entrapment, femoral nerve entrapment, lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (meralgia paresthetica), obturator nerve entrapment, genitofemoral nerve entrapment, ilioinguinal nerve entrapment, saphenous nerve entrapment, sural nerve entrapment, tarsal tunnel syndrome, interdigital nerve entrapment, various syndromes, occipital nerve neuralgia, abdominal nerve entrapment, axillary nerve syndrome (quadrilateral space syndrome), supraclavicular nerve compression, trigeminal neuralgia, paroxysmal facial pain syndrome, atypical facial pain, Bell’s palsy, facial paralysis, neuritis or radiculitis in cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral regions, radiculopathies, spondylosis, brachial and lumbosacral plexus disorders, cervical, thoracic, and lumbosacral root disorders, cubital nerve injury, late ulnar nerve palsy, radial nerve injury, femoral nerve injury, lateral popliteal nerve injury, peroneal nerve palsy, medial popliteal nerve injury, tarsal tunnel syndrome, plantar nerve injury, intercostal neuropathy, multiple mononeuritis, osteoarthritis, other joint disorders, dorsopathies and deforming dorsopathies, spondylopathies, synovial and tendon disorders.
