Proprioceptive Deep Tendon Reflex (P-DTR®) Therapy

P-DTR® Therapy offers a unique approach to healing by focusing on the body’s sensory receptors, which are often the root cause of pain and dysfunction. Unlike traditional therapies that primarily address the body’s physical structure, P-DTR® targets the neurological “software” — the way the brain processes sensory information to control movement.

Developed by Dr. José Palomar, an orthopedic surgeon, P-DTR® recognizes that sensory receptors such as those responsible for touch, pressure, temperature, pain, and more, send crucial data to the brain. The brain processes this input to determine motor function. When these sensory signals are disrupted or misinterpreted, the body can experience dysfunction, pain, and impaired movement.

Using a combination of muscle testing and targeted neural challenges, P-DTR® identifies which sensory receptors are involved and works to restore their proper function. This technique does not merely mask symptoms but seeks to address the root cause of the problem, leading to faster and more lasting recovery.

How P-DTR® Works:

The therapy focuses on restoring the accuracy of sensory feedback from the body to the brain, especially in the case of receptors that process pain, stretch, pressure, temperature, and vibration. When these receptors send faulty information, the brain responds with inefficient motor control, often leading to pain and movement difficulties. P-DTR® uses specific neural challenges and deep tendon reflex stimulation to correct these miscommunications and restore optimal body function.

Benefits of P-DTR® Therapy

  • Targets and treats the root cause of issues, not just the symptoms.
  • Speeds up recovery from acute injuries.
  • Relieves chronic pain and dysfunction that doesn’t go away on its own.
  • Reduces the impact of repetitive stress injuries.
  • Enhances athletic performance by improving movement efficiency.
  • Quickly restores muscle function, strength, and coordination.
  • Increases range of motion, flexibility, and stamina.
  • Delivers lasting results with noticeable improvements.
  • Boosts overall stability and balance.
  • Resolves long-standing issues that may have seemed untreatable.

By focusing on the neural systems that influence movement and pain, P-DTR® provides a comprehensive solution to musculoskeletal problems, offering lasting relief and enhanced performance.
