FOUNDER
Dr. Allan Oolo Austin

“At a Trigenics® Treatment Centre, you will be checked top to bottom for complete neurokinetic functional integrity. ("neurokinetic" relates to neurological control of strength, movement and sensation). Using specialized Trigenics® examination procedures and testing devices, a functional map of your bodies strength and movement deficiencies will be created which will enable your Trigenist to locate and correct the cause of your pain and condition.

In addition, any weaknesses which may become problematic in the future will also be found and corrected using Trigenics® to make you even stronger and better than before. Finally you will be given a home care regime using the patented Trigenics® exercises to maintain your strength, functional balance and total wellness.”

THERAPEUTIC FUNCTIONAL NEUROLOGY: COMBINING TREATMENT WITH EXERCISE

TRIGENICS is a neuro-kinetic assessment, treatment and training system which instantly relieves pain and increases strength and movement. It is used by manual medicine physicians such as osteopathic and chiropractic doctors as well as physiotherapists. Fitness or athletic trainers and licensed massage therapists also use variations of Trigenics for muscular balance assessments and/or treatment of physical pain conditions as well as neuromuscular retraining.
Trigenics works by combining 3 treatment techniques which are applied at the same time for a therapeutic synergistic effect which is much greater than if you only applied one. The 3 components are

  1. resisted exercise neurology

  2. muscle nerve treatment and

  3. bio-feedback breathing.

(See simplified components with explanations below.)
During a Trigenics treatment, the doctor or therapist applies treatment to the muscle nerve-sensors while the patient performs specific resisted movement and breathing exercises.
Trigenics is a unique and dramatically effective treatment system which utilizes recent advances in functional neurology, developed by its founder, with new manual medicine procedures. With Trigenics your nervous system is treated to essentially reset the way your brain communicates with your body. Patients are inter-active participants in the treatment process rather than simple passive or active recipients. During the procedures, patients are required to move in specific directions and with specific amounts of force in order to generate neuromuscular monitoring reflexes which regulate movement. The Trigenics practitioner simultaneously amplifies these nerve-sensor reflex signals by introducing resistance to the movements while the patient exercises. The movement monitoring nerve-sensors, which are embedded in the muscles, are then also physically manipulated and/or stimulated to further amplify the signals they are already reflexively sending up to the brain. In addition, the patient simultaneously performs concentrative therapeutic breathing exercises to even further stimulate the nervous system and enhance treatment outcome. So many signals being generated at the same time causes an amplification of the normal movement-sensation messages that the brain receives. As such, an unnatural and unusually large barrage of neurological signals are all sent up to converge in the lower brain at the same time. This causes the brain to essentially overload or “short-circuit”. (In neurology this is referred to as “amplitude summation” and “convergence projection”) The brain then, in turn, “resets” its communication by beneficially changing it’s down-going “movement” and “feeling” signals to the body. This creates the effect of immediately improving joint and muscle function as well as instantly decreasing pain and increasing strength and movement. (This is analogous to how one “re-boots” their computer to restore function following an otherwise non-correctable malfunction when the screen or mouse freezes.) Trigenics can be performed manually without medications or machines although many Trigenics practitioners now use various static or vibratory treatment application devices and exercise equipment for the procedures. Doctors and therapists in the manual medicine fields, who use Trigenics, often refer to it as the missing element of care.
Trigenics myoneural exercise methods and concepts can also be utilized by the public for state-of-the-art neuromuscular self treatment and training. Using Trigenics exercise methods enables one to balance their bodies muscular function by increasing length of tight muscles and strengthening weak muscles instantaneously. (A book on Trigenics for the lower back and 2 DVDs on Trigenics exercises for the public are available in the “store” section of this web site.)
Because Trigenics combines a number of treatment techniques or modalities for a cumulative effect on the nervous system which amplifies the therapeutic effect and enhances treatment outcome, it is referred to as a “multi-modal” treatment system. Trigenics is the first treatment of its kind to utilize this concept.

 

Retrain your brain with Trigenics...........Trigenics often helps where all else has failed.


NB: Dr. Allan Oolo Austin, the founder of Trigenics, was the first in the world to introduce the concept of therapeutically combining soft tissue treatment with resisted exercises for a therapeutic neurological amplification effect. His work in developing the “resistance loading reflex” or “Austin response” is groundbreaking in the functional neurology and manual medicine field.

Trigenics® is only practiced by licensed doctors or therapists who have successfully achieved post graduate specialty education from the Trigenics® Institute of Myoneural Medicine and who hold a current license to practice Trigenics® as a Registered Trigenics® Physician or Practitioner with the designation RTP. The Trigenics Institute is co-sponsored for health professional CE credits by National University of Health Sciences in Chicago, U.S.A.

The unique Trigenics® Myoneural Medicine system involves simultaneously applying 3 treatment techniques at the same time for an effect which is much greater than if only one was used. The summative, synergistic effect on the nervous system enables rapid and dramatic results otherwise not attainable.

 

THE 3 COMPONENTS OF TRIGENICS ARE:

  1. RESISTED EXERCISES. The patient performs exercise movements which are resisted either by the doctor/therapist or with the use of devices or equipment. (Devices are available which measure applied muscle force.) If exercise equipment is used, different loads are used for different muscles and body types. These force-specific resisted movement patterns are designed to cause augmented firing of reflex nerve impulses from the muscles to the brain. ("Myoneural')
  2. MUSCLE TREATMENT. The doctor/therapist directly treats the muscle with deformative traction or vibratory techniques in such a way as to stimulate increased firing of the the nerve-sensors which monitor movement and feeling. The treatment is applied to the muscles, tendons or ligaments by the doctor/therapist using their hands or a variety of treatment devices .This type of soft tissue treatment also causes augmented firing of up-going impulses to the brain.
  3. FOCUSED BREATHING . The patient is required to perform concentrative focused breathing while the doctor/therapist provides verbal feedback as to how the patient can enhance the neurological effect of their movements so as to enhance the treatment response and outcome. Neurologists refer to this therapeutic procedural concept as "biofeedback".

Testimonial

Trigenics® is remarkably effective in providing reprieve from neuromusculo-skeletal conditions, chronic pain syndromes, all forms of tendonitis, sprain/strain injuries, muscle spasm.

It is also used to improve myoneural function in patients with neurological conditions such as stroke, cerebral palsy and Trigeminal Neuralgia.

Trigenics® is safe and non forceful and can be used effectively on a broad range of patients including infants and seniors. In seniors it has been found to be very effective and does not require and forceful joint manipulations. It is also an excellent  alternative to high velocity neck manipulation.
