Myovision System (Spinal Muslce Scan)
Our
Myovision system is a neurospinal screening and evaluation system that uses
surface electromyography to measure changes of spinal muscles. It was originally
developed for NASA and designed to measure changes in the spinal muscles of
astronauts.
Our system helps us to identify irritated and dysfunctioning spinal joints by
measuring muscle activity. Irritated and dysfunctional spinal joints disturb the
muscles regular nerve function, causing an abnormal amount of electrical flow to
the muscles. This electrical flow is measured and displayed graphically as shown
in the illustration. The system allows for increased accuracy in diagnosis,
review of prognosis and improved care. In addition, the system is used to
monitor the patients’ individual progress. You will be able to see the progress
that you are making at regular “progress exams”.
The scan is totally non-invasive and does not cause pain or irritation. This
makes it totally safe for infants, children, pregnant women or seniors. It
simply requires the placement of small probes against the skin, with the test
taking less than a few minutes. The scan is used by many chiropractic offices
and is the latest, state of the art equipment for this type of spinal assessment.
