How it Works
It works on the theory that pain comes from pressure that has been built up around a joint, and muscle imbalances lead to their misalignment. When that pressure reaches a critical point, it causes restricted movement, inflammation and pain, or in the case of the spine, misalignment of the vertebrae that affects that discs and nerves.
The techniques applied in the SLM method are designed to assist in relieving the critical imbalances, through restoring muscle tone and function to all parts of the body. This in turn realigns the skeleton and releases the pressure from the joints, allowing the pain and inflammation to disappear.
