How FIMS works

FIMS technique is an internationally recognized treatment modality that is being practiced by the medical professionals around the world.
Proprioceptors inside the muscle, tendons, and ligaments play important role in motor function, including joint movements and posture maintenance. When these proprioceptors get damaged due to repetitive injury, stressful exercises, and improper posture/gait, daily body movements become restricted and body tissues start to degenerate at a faster rate. This triggers inflammation at specific body parts resulting in pain.

Pre-existing treatments only focus on eliminating pain by chemical injection or reconstructing local structure, often accompanied with further degeneration. These types of treatments might reduce pain in short term, but in reality, the injury is progressing. Inflammation is often painful, but it's a vital process in regeneration of injured tissue. Simply inhibiting inflammation (often pain) only disturbs recovery, moreover, accelerates degeneration of surrounding tissues.

*Proprioceptors are nerves that sense the body position, movement, and force, meaning that these nerves tell us where our body parts are and what they are doing without looking at them, and what forces are acting upon our body at any given time

  • The origin of pain can be located outside the area where you feel pain.

  • Muscles are controlled by the nerve signals received from the neural circuits created between the brain and spinal cord.

  • Proprioceptors are located within the muscles and tendons.

Inflammation is not only a cause of pain but also a necessary process for our body's recovery.
Treatments that suppress inflammation can help reduce acute pain,
but in the case of chronic pain, they may hinder recovery.
