Muscle Activation Therapy: 3 Step Path to Recovery

What is Muscle Activation Therapy (MAT)?

Muscle Activation Therapy is a therapeutic approach that identifies and corrects muscular imbalances and weaknesses. It involves tests and exercises to improve muscle function and joint stability.

How does MAT differ from traditional physical therapy?

MAT specifically targets muscle imbalances with a focus on improving muscle activation and strength. Traditional physical therapy has a broader focus on overall mobility and injury recovery.

Step 1

Assessment of Mobility

The first step involves comprehensive mobility tests to evaluate the body's range of motion (ROM), pinpointing areas needing attention.

Step 2

Muscle Activation

Next, we employ isometric contractions to stimulate the muscles, fostering a vital connection between the nervous and muscular systems.

Retesting and Continuation

Finally, we retest the targeted muscles to ensure they are on the path to regaining strength and power.
