What is Neuromuscular Reeducation?

Neuromuscular reeducation is a targeted physical therapy that re-trains the communication between your nervous system and muscles. By improving this connection, therapy enhances coordination, balance, posture, and functional movement. At Body In Gear, we combine hands-on guidance, corrective exercises, and movement retraining to restore proper mechanics, reduce pain, and prevent future injuries.
