In recent years, a revolutionary new process has evolved for correcting muscular imbalances in the body. It has dramatically improved functional capabilities in people of all age groups, providing a pain free lifestyle along with elevating sports performance and career longevity in several professional athletes. This process is a biomechanically-based system called Muscle Activation Technique (MAT)™.
MAT looks at muscle tightness as a form of protection in the body. Weak or inhibited muscles can create the need for other muscles to tighten up in order to help stabilize the joints. MAT gets to the root of pain or injury by addressing muscle weakness rather than muscle tightness. This helps to restore normal body alignment, thereby, decreasing pain and reducing the risk of injury.
If you have tight muscles and restricted range of motion it's an indication that the body is trying to protect a vulnerable joint by reducing movement across that joint. Constantly trying to 'stretch' or loosen the tight, guarded, muscle using other traditional techniques will only increase that vulnerability. While these techniques may provide short term symptomatic relief they will not correct the underlying imbalance that leads the body to fall into this guarded, or protective, pattern.
with MAT provided in a clinical setting you can:
- Bridging the Gap Between Fitness and Rehabilitation
- improve range of motion while increasing stability
- Find your 'weak link' and traget it during your rehab/training
- Improve spinal stability
- Release tight, restricted, muscles without the need to stretch
- Improve sports performance
MAT enables you a new lease on your active lifestyle. With MAT, you can return to the golf course, tennis court, ski slopes or athletic field with renewed strength and without pain. With MAT, athletes of all ages will perform at a higher level without injury, allowing them to "stay in the game".
