Muscle Energy Technique is one of
the most effective and gentle manual
techniques for the correction of
somatic dysfunction. MET uses
accurate assessment techniques
to discover if a joint is stuck out of
alignment. Then the practitioner
positions the patient and asks for
gentle resistance in such a way that
the joint is brought back into alignment,
and the tight muscle relaxed.
This technique can be incorporated
easily into any treatment protocol,
and is an excellent addition to any
practice.
This beautifully produced DVD covers
the pelvis, sacrum and lumbar spine. Specifically, this dvd includes corrections for a pelvis upslip, downslip, rotations, inflair and outflair and pubic bone dysfunctions. It also covers Sacral rotations, and unilateral flexion/extension dysfunctions. The lumbar section covers one or multiple vertebrae stuck in flexion or extensions. In addition to all this, there is also a section on using muscle energy to balance and relax all the muscles surrounding the hips.
