MAT™ does not force change on the body but instead works with it to make improvements, causing changes in motion via improvements in muscle contraction. A MAT™ specialist listens to your body’s responses and changes his/her treatment decisions based on these responses. Each client is treated as an individual with his/her own muscular weaknesses and compensation patterns. Therefore, no treatment session is ever the same. MAT™ does not diagnose or treat pathology, but works to improve a muscle’s contractile capabilities and the resulting range of motion and strength of that muscle/limb. By improving these aspects, a person will see an increased ability for exercise and physical performance. MAT™ differentiates itself from other techniques because it never attempts to directly lengthen or change the muscle by stretching, heating, kneading, or foam rolling. MAT™ is not trying to “relax” muscle, but instead “activates” the muscle, so that your body is better prepared to handle the forces that come from exercise and every day movements.
