Unlock Relief with Gunn Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS)
Gunn IMS is a comprehensive system designed for the diagnosis and treatment of persistent myofascial pain syndromes, addressing a wide range of issues including muscle, joint, tendon, bursal, fascial, neural, and biomechanical problems. Developed by Dr. C. Chan Gunn, this innovative approach utilizes intramuscular dry needling, focusing on the neuropathic dysfunction model. By considering the entire body rather than just isolated pain areas, Gunn IMS targets the underlying nervous system dysfunction that often contributes to persistent myofascial pain.
Key Benefits of Gunn Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS)
Targeted Pain Relief
Gunn IMS specifically addresses the source of persistent myofascial pain by targeting trigger points and underlying nerve dysfunction, providing effective and lasting relief.
Enhanced Muscle Function
By promoting blood flow and reducing muscle tension, Gunn IMS helps restore normal muscle function, improving mobility and flexibility for daily activities and sports.
Holistic Approach
This method considers the entire body, not just isolated areas of pain, allowing for a comprehensive treatment that addresses underlying issues and promotes overall wellness.
Conditions Commonly Treated with Gunn IMS:
Chronic muscle pain and tension
Joint pain and stiffness
Tendonitis and tendon pain
Bursitis and inflammation
Fascial restrictions and tightness
Neural pain syndromes
Biomechanical dysfunctions
Sports-related injuries
Post-surgical pain and rehabilitation
Harness the Power of Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS)
At Rophe Rehab, we specialize in Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) therapy, a highly effective approach to diagnosing and treating myofascial pain syndromes. Developed by Dr. Chan Gunn, IMS targets chronic pain conditions in the musculoskeletal system that lack obvious signs of injury or inflammation. Unlike painkillers that merely mask discomfort, IMS addresses the underlying issues by utilizing fine acupuncture needles to stimulate affected muscle tissue. This method promotes healing by engaging the body’s own response mechanisms, providing long-term relief for our patients.
Our skilled practitioners are trained to perform IMS therapy effectively, ensuring that you receive the highest standard of care tailored to your unique needs. Let us help you on your path to recovery and improved quality of life!

Myofascial pain syndromes
