Muscle Energy Technique

Muscle Energy Technique is one of the most effective and valuable manual techniques for the identification and correction of somatic asymmetry and hypomobility. This technique positions the joint in the direction of restriction of motion and recalibrates the precise muscle spindles, which are holding the bone in a less than optimal position. The muscle returns to normal resting length, tone, and excitability thus allowing the joint to return to the normal position. By re-calibrating the spindle and correcting the cause of the dysfunction, these techniques will correct all types of biomechanical orthopaedic problems.

Don’t miss this opportunity to improve your hands on skills and add another tool to your toolbox!

Muscle Energy Technique

Muscle Energy Technique is one of the most effective and valuable manual techniques for the identification and correction of somatic asymmetry and hypomobility. Fred Mitchell Sr. D.O. who is considered one of the patriarchs of Muscle Energy Technique and was a pioneer in forward thinking as he searched to develop an alternative to manipulative therapies. These techniques have been refined over the years and are even more accurate, efficient and effective than in their original form. These are not cover up procedures, but rather, techniques that cure the problem with dramatic results.
