Myoskeletal Alignment 

MAT techniques help to restore function in the skeletal system through muscular work. The technique involves restive stretching, Muscle-balancing techniques with joint-mobilization maneuvers. These maneuvers help to quickly identify and correct dysfunction before they become pain patterns.Myoskeletal Alignment Therapy (MAT) focuses on  lengthening tight muscles to allow for improved movement, posture and function. 

 

WHAT TO EXPECT: A session of Myoskeletal Alignment Therapy will integrate assisted stretching, Golgi tendon release, muscle spindle relaxation, and facet work, contract and relax techniques are used for toning of weak muscles and stretching tight muscles, as well as guided movements to increase range of motion.

 

 

Benefits:

• Relieves chronic pain contributing to weak posture.

• Releases trapped nerves from tight muscles, joints & ligaments.

• Corrects atrophy, weakness and muscle amnesia in head-forward postures.

• Lessens pain sensitivity through graded exposure assisted stretching.

• Eliminates protective muscle guarding due to joint dysfunction.

• Improves sleep by lowering sympathetic nervous system tone.

• Creates dynamic, confident posture with innovative restorative techniques.

• Corrects sports-related tendon and joint injuries.

• Enhances athletic performance through hands-on proprioceptive training.

• Changes the brain’s mind about pain through targeted exercise advice.
