Online Bookings with clinics offering Gunn IMS Treatments are available internationally, thousands are located worldwide.


The principle of Dr. Gunn’s modality is to “get the muscles to relax” so the nerve network can do their work.
This may be achieved by using various applied physical therapy methods, combine with the hands-one skill of the practitioner.

  • ·         Needling (dry / acupuncture)
  • ·         TrP (trigger point injections / saline non-medicated)
  • ·         TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation)
  • ·         LLLT (low level laser (red light) therapy)
  • ·         RMT (registered massage therapy)
  • ·         etc
