The essential manual for Muscle Energy Techniques (METs), revised and updated--with new insights, advanced MET applications, and guidance on assessing, treating, and rehabilitating musculoskeletal dysfunctions and sports injuries

Includes step-by-step instructions, 200+ photos, and worksheets for postural assessment and muscle weakness

This practical guide--packed with full-color photographs and anatomical illustrations--explains the foundational theory of MET and offers hands-on instruction for treating a range of musculoskeletal conditions.

Structured in 5 parts, this book shows practitioners how to work different techniques on key muscle groups in the upper and lower body, trunk, and pelvis. Specific applications and topics explored include:

  • Lengthening techniques for the shoulder complex: pecs, abductors, and extensors
  • Assessing and understanding muscle weakness in the pectorals, IT band, TFL, gluteals, and more
  • Learning the core 5-5-5 approach
  • Self-help MET exercises that anyone can perform anytime, anywhere, without special equipment
  • Exercises for restoring tone, strengthening muscles, boosting mobility, reducing pain, and increasing joint function

A must-have for any student or practitioner of physical therapy, osteopathy, chiropractic, massage, or bodywork, Muscle Energy Techniques is designed to help readers expand their clinical skills, enhance patients' treatment outcomes, and apply versatile, evidence-based manual therapy practices.
