How is Muscle Activation Techniques Different?

Over the past 20 years, we always get asked by various types of Licensed Professionals and clients how Muscle Activation Techniques (MAT) is different than any other modalities including kinesiology, physical therapy, massage therapy, chiropractic, podiatry, etc. The overall principle in which MAT operates from is "Muscle Tightness is a result of Muscle Weakness". And because we view tightness (and the resultant pain) in this manner, we are unique. All of our assessments, tests, and treatments aim to rectify neurological weakness that causes muscle weaknesses. For decades MAT has been used by many Physical Therapists, Massage Therapists, Chiropractors, and Kinesiologists over the years with resounding success... Because MAT IS NOT competition to any modality... MAT IS THE PERFECT ADJUNCT to any modality (that works with the muscle system). *Footage from the MAT archives.
