DNS INTRODUCTION
What do over 12,000 course participants since 2012, in 36 countries, and in 170 courses this year alone know that you don’t? That Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization is the most innovative and effective strategy for both sports performance enhancement and neuro-orthopedic rehabilitation. Developed by Pavel Kolar, PT, Paed.Dr., Ph.D., of the Prague School of Rehabilitation in Prague, Czech Republic- it has evolved from the decades of clinical practice and research of his predecessors in the neurology and physiatry fields (Vaclav Vojta, MD, Karel Lewit, MD, Vladimir Janda, MD, Frantisek Vele, MD and many others).
I have included links to articles which explain the concepts in more depth (here and here), but in essence, Prague takes a neurodevelopmental approach and trains the brain and nervous system’s control of the musculoskeletal system instead of focusing on individual joints, muscles, or fascial connections.
They do this by comparing faulty motor patterns with the pre-programmed motor patterns that create the efficient, fluid movements in healthy infants and young children. They then use Prague’s neuromotor manual therapy and DNS exercise techniques to “re-boot” those primitive motor patterns so that one can dramatically improve, both in time and effectiveness,
performance goals and treatment outcomes. DNS can be used in many different ways:
-
It is the most effective strategy to evaluate and train the core and the intrinsic spinal stabilization system (ISSS)
-
Although there is a learning curve, once mastered it brings clarity to your evaluation of faulty movement patterns along with a logical strategy to correct those patterns
-
You can use the DNS individual exercises, DNS Flow exercises, or DNS Yoga exercises as stand-alone exercise programs that centrate all joints (coordination of eccentric and concentric muscular activity to maximize both stability and mobility in joints and elongate the spine)
-
You can use DNS to enhance any other exercise or rehabilitation program that you are currently using.
The possible uses are endless. Every exercise instructor, trainer, and clinician needs to learn this amazing strategy. Please come and find out how this can create your own training and treatment “miracles”, as my athletes, dancers, and patients call them!
