Clinical Neuro-Mechanical Nutrition Technique (CNMN)

The Clinical Neuro-Mechanical Nutrition Technique (CNMN) is an innovative technique that combines elements from multiple disciplines to create a comprehensive new treatment for complex conditions.

CNMN focuses on optimising nervous system function, improving mechanical alignment and movement, and addressing nutritional deficiencies that may contribute to health problems. In this article, we provide a quick overview of this novel treatment.

What Is The Clinical Neuro-Mechanical Nutrition Technique?

The CNMN technique integrates aspects of neurology, biomechanics, and nutrition, aligning with principles often considered in chiropractic care, to provide a holistic treatment approach. By integrating these three elements, practitioners aim to provide more effective and sustainable health outcomes.

These three elements (neurology, biomechanics, and nutrition) correspond with the three states in the patient TRIAD of health:

  • Emotional State: Affected by stressful life events, or sustained sympathetic nervous system response.
  • Physical State: Affected by neuro-mechanical system dysfunction.
  • Metabolic State: Affected by diet/ nutritional status, and energy/ inflammation.

The CNMN technique asks the question: What is dysfunctional within the patient TRIAD of health (Emotional, Physical, Metabolic) that has allowed the symptoms of a complex condition to develop and persist?

The important role that nutrition plays in the management of chronic diseases is increasingly recognised. Additionally, nutrition may also play an important role in musculoskeletal care. These ideas are outlined further at the Academy Of Chiropractic Nutrition (Academy Of Chiropractic Nutrition).

The ultimate aim of this multidisciplinary technique is to address the root causes of health issues by considering the intricate relationships between the nervous system, mechanical function, and nutritional status.

The recommended interventions can help alleviate the symptoms of conditions like chronic pain, migraine, and neurological disorders.

Components Of The CNMN Technique

Neurology

The CNMN technique places a strong emphasis on the nervous system, recognizing its crucial role in overall health and well-being. In particular, it addresses the role of neuro-inflammation in complex conditions.

The importance of sleep for avoiding a sustained low grade inflammatory response is also emphasised. The CNMN technique may include neurological assessments and treatments designed to improve nerve function and connectivity.

Biomechanics

Proper mechanical function of the body is essential for health. The CNMN technique addresses misalignments and dysfunctions in the musculoskeletal system. It may include spinal adjustments, joint mobilizations, and corrective exercises to improve posture and movement.

By ensuring that the body’s structure is properly aligned and functioning, patients can experience relief from pain and improved nervous system functioning.

Nutrition

Nutrition plays a pivotal role in health, affecting everything from energy levels to immune function. The CNMN technique includes nutritional assessments and interventions tailored to the individual needs of the patient.

The role of nutrition in neuro-inflammation is especially important. The nutritional interventions may include dietary recommendations and dietary supplementations that address specific nutritional deficiencies contributing to health issues.

What Conditions Can The CNMN Technique Treat

CNMN is particularly helpful for treating:

  • Chronic Pain
  • Chronic Fatigue
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Migraine
  • Insomnia/ Sleep Problems
  • Restless Leg Syndrome

Benefits Of The CNMN Technique

Comprehensive Care

By addressing neurological, mechanical, and nutritional aspects of health, the CNMN technique provides a thorough and integrated approach to the treatment of complex conditions.

This comprehensive care can lead to more effective and lasting health improvements compared to treatments that focus on only one aspect of health.

Personalised Treatment

Each patient receives a personalised treatment plan based on their unique health status and needs. This individualised approach enhances the effectiveness of the treatment and improves patient satisfaction.

Holistic Health Improvement

The aims of the CNMN technique are to alleviate the symptoms of complex conditions and to improve overall health and well-being. By optimising nervous system function, mechanical alignment, and nutritional status, patients can experience better health outcomes and a higher quality of life.

Conclusion: The Clinical Neuro-Mechanical Nutrition Technique

The CNMN technique adopts a forward-thinking approach to healthcare, combining the strengths of neurology, biomechanics, and nutrition to provide holistic and effective treatment.

By addressing these interconnected aspects of health, CNMN offers a comprehensive solution for patients seeking to manage complex health conditions and improve their well-being.

Whether dealing with chronic pain, neurological issues, or nutritional deficiencies, CNMN provides a multifaceted approach that can lead to better and more sustainable health outcomes.
