Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
Arthur C Clarke
Muscle Energy Technique (MET)
MET addresses the nervous system. By having clients actively resist gentle, strategic applications of pressure, practitioners promote the rehabilitation of malfunctioning nerves.
MET also helps strengthen weak muscles, eliminates trigger points, relaxes chronically tight muscles, and improves the range of motion of joints.
MET also reduces the pain associated with tight muscles and stiff joints.
Since we are engaging the neurologic system there is no need to push hard, just as pushing harder on a light switch does not make the light turn off any better.
Precision, not brute force, is the key to engaging this simple but profound switch built into the software of our muscular control mechanism.
This can be accomplished in as little as 10 to 15 seconds, often making the change feel like magic.
