DYNAMIC NEUROMUSCULAR STABILIZATION (DNS)

Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) is a unique approach to hands-on rehabilitation. Pavel Kolar developed DNS in the Czech Republic by utilizing techniques to activate the integrated stabilizing system of our spine and body. It is based on scientific principles of developmental kinesiology (how babies grow and learn to move) and applies them towards the neurophysiological aspects of the adult locomotion system.

DNS starts off by focusing on proper breathing patterns, which is a prerequisite to the human stabilizing system. This method progresses through guided movement patterns, which decrease tension in overworked muscles while increasing tone in under-worked muscles. DNS works by stimulating movement control centers in the brain through activation of ideal, inborn movement patterns; therefore, “turning off” improper dysfunctional movement patterns.

DNS concepts are utilized on infants, children and adults, as well as amateur and elite level athletes. It is used to rehabilitate the injured, to optimize movement that prevents injury, and to improve sports performance by optimizing the efficiency of motion. For more Information Click Here

Schedule an appointment with Dr. Andrew or Dr. Brenton, two of the few providers in the KC area that practices DNS, for your DNS evaluation and treatment.

What our patients are saying

“I always feel so much better when I leave Finan Chiropractic!! My body feels better from being adjusted and my heart feels better from the friendly people in the office. I would recommend to everyone!”

- Lisa C.

“The whole process was super easy. Filling out the forms and scheduling the appointment was a breeze. And Dr. Nate Backer was incredible. He is a straight shooter and does not try to hide anything from you. He focuses on fixing the problem, not the symptoms. Very personable and knowledgeable. Felt so much better after leaving the office. He assigned me stretches I could do at home to help relieve some of my pain and they are working great. Overall, a fantastic experience. Would definitely recommend!”

- David G.

“I have been a patient since 2014 and I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Finan. She is attentive and extremely knowledgeable. I had previously quit seeing a chiropractor because my chronic pain was not being resolved – until I saw her! I recently began seeing Dr. Nate as well and have received nothing but excellent care as well. The office staff is so friendly and helpful – go, go, go! You won’t regret it.”

- Abigail C.

“Josh helped me recover from two running injuries this year. I was able to run a pain free half marathon three weeks ago, and I look forward to a healthy running year in 2017 thanks to the excellent care I received.”

- Joseph R.

“He (Dr. Backer) was very knowledgeable and helpful in asking great questions to try to figure out root causes of symptoms vs jumping straight into adjustments and such. He provided a lot of good information and took the time to discuss preventative habits with me such as stretching, sleeping positions, etc that may help prevent future symptoms. He was very skilled in adjusting and relieving tension I immediately felt an increase in mobility and decreased tension. Looking forward to my next appointment!”

- Marcus A.

“Dr. Finan is amazing. The rest of the staff is too. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. They are always on time. I’ve never waited more than 5 minutes in the year I’ve been going there. Dr. Finan has helped my back and ailments in such a short time. I feel great! Thank you!”
