Camara MyoFascial Method

The Camara Myofascial Method incorporates a multitude of medical devices and specific protocols that allows the nervous system to recalibrate itself which facilitates proper neurological function. As a result, cells are more resilient and vibrant which enables all aspects of the nervous system to function together more cohesively. This stimulates the brain's ability to more effectively communicate with the body through existing neuro pathways while potentially recruiting new communication pathways as well.

From a neurological and physiological perspective, the Camara Myofascial Method facilitates positive change in the nervous system initially through stimulating mechanoreceptors. A mechanoreceptor responds to mechanical pressure or distortion. Mechanoreceptors initiate impulses in sensory neurons when they are physically deformed by an outside force such as touch, pressure, stretching, sound waves or motion. This allows us to detect touch, sounds and the motion of the body as well as monitor the position of our muscles, bones, and joints giving us the sense of proprioception, the sense of the orientation of one's limbs in space which is distinct from the sense of balance.

Another phenomenon of the Camara MyoFascial Method is that it prompts the release of muscle tension by forcing the muscle to relax as a natural reflex when placed under a vibration and percussion load from a medical device such as the cr17 MyoStim or the MyoVibe Whole Body Vibration platform. This occurs because of the stimulation of the muscle spindle and the Golgi tendon organ, two proprioceptors. The muscle spindle relays information regarding changes in muscle length. The Golgi tendon is a proprioceptor that relays information regarding changes in muscle tension. Together, they help to protect the muscles from over-stretching and becoming injured.

When using the Camara MyoFascial Method to stimulate the Golgi tendon, this places the load on the muscles which prompts the relaxation response. This relaxation response also allows the nervous system to recalibrate itself which facilitates proper neurological functioning. The brain responds by increasing the blood flow to the bones and muscles in that region which improves blood circulation and joint tissue vitality along with increased muscle and bone mass. This results in increased muscle strength and stamina, improved blood circulation, increased blood vessel dilation, rebuilding of bone mass, reduced scar tissue, and repairing of damaged nerves through nerve regeneration and/or improved neurological function, also known as neuroplasticity, one of the most important and developing topics in neuroscience today.
