Kinetic Chain Release

Kinetic Chain Release (KCR)
KCR was developed by Hugh Gilbert a Physiotherapist from Govan, Scotland. He created this protocol over 20 years during his 45+ years physiotherapy career.
This is a simple and effective protocol using a series of mobilizations and stretches to help return the body to its natural dynamic state.
KCR works directly on a number of internal structures including skeletal system, muscular system and connective tissue system.
KCR brings relief from:
​
Carpal Tunnel Chronic Fatigue Chronic knee issues
Sprained Ankles Migraine Headaches
Scoliosis Teeth Clenching Tight calves
Tired shoulders Pain between shoulders IBS

​
Connective Tissue Release (CTR) The Hugh Gilbert Method
CTR is a follow on from KCR. If KCR hasn't successfully resolved an issue then there will be a restriction in the connective tissue system. CTR the Hugh Gilbert Method is a special focused form of connective tissue release and the work is focused on the joints. Specific CTR mobilisations will be performed after a full KCR to help release the connective tissue.
