The Afferentology Advantage: Getting to the Root of Weakness 💡
Welcome! If you're looking for ways to make patient care easier, more reliable, and get faster results, you're in the right place.
Afferentology is a healthcare paradigm focused on the prevention and treatment of injury and illness by targeting the source of instability: muscle inhibition. We do this by normalizing the body's afferent input (sensory messages).
Our goal is simple: to help you achieve predictable patient outcomes by mastering the body's most basic, yet most powerful, safety systems.
At the center of Afferentology are the three cord-based reflexes that control muscle tone:
The Myotatic Reflex (The Stretch Reflex)
The Withdrawal Reflex (The Safety Brake)
The Law of Reciprocal Inhibition (The Harmony Regulator)
You likely studied these reflexes in school, but we're going to revisit them with a critical clinical lens to uncover their profound impact on health and healing. Let's establish this common starting point together.
