Experience MAT
A Unique Approach To Neuromuscular Health
Identify muscle dysfunction, to increase range of motion, accelerate recovery, and unleash the body’s healing power.
What To Expect
Experience The Power OF MAT To Understand
Muscle Activation Techniques (MAT) is a hands-on neuromuscular therapy focused on identifying and correcting muscle inhibition, the root cause of muscle tightness and pain. By addressing these underlying issues, MAT aims to improve the body’s overall function and performance, offering a more effective solution than simply treating symptoms. It is often said that MAT must be experienced first hand to truly understand its power and benefits.
The MAT Process
The MAT 5-Step Process
Our process showcases the precision and effectiveness of MAT, making it a highly sought-after solution for both individuals seeking relief and professionals advancing their practice.
01
Assessment
Using our proprietary Comparative Assessment of Mobility (CAM®), the practitioner measures and compares movement to identify muscle imbalances and restricted motion.
02
Identify Weakness
With Active Muscle Contract & Sustain (AMC&S®) testing, the practitioner pinpoints inhibited muscles that aren’t contracting properly and need neuromuscular activation.
03
Activation
Through the Digital Force Application to Muscle Attachment Tissue (DFAMAT®) or Positional IsoAngular Contraction (PIC®), your choice of targeted pressure or isometric force is applied to restore proper neuromuscular function.
04
Retest
The practitioner checks to confirm their activation was successful by doing a follow up AMC&S® test to ensure improvement.
05
Reassess
The practitioner goes through the CAM® again to review the changes in motion and confirm next steps.
Conditions MAT Can Relieve
MAT Is Known To Restore Muscle Function

Immediate Results
MAT provides healing and recovery by targeting muscular imbalances with precise, effective techniques that reduce pain and enhance movement. This approach not only helps alleviate chronic pain but also accelerates recovery and improves overall muscle function. By focusing on restoring proper muscle activation, MAT promotes long-term health, reduces the risk of injury, and delivers sustainable results for clients.

Chronic Pain Conditions
MAT can help alleviate chronic pain by addressing muscular imbalances, improving muscle function, and promoting long-term relief. It’s effective for conditions such as back pain, neck pain, and joint discomfort.
- Lower Back Pain: Often caused by muscular imbalances, tightness, or weakness.
- Neck and Shoulder Pain: Due to poor posture, muscle strain, or overcompensation.
- Hip Pain: Linked to tight hip flexors, weak glutes, or pelvic instability.
- Knee Pain: Resulting from muscle imbalances around the quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves.

Joint Pain and Stiffness
MAT can help reduce joint pain and stiffness by targeting muscular imbalances that affect mobility and function. Through muscle activation, it promotes better joint stability and flexibility, offering relief from discomfort and improving overall movement.
- Arthritis: Relieves stiffness and improves muscle support around affected joints.
- Frozen Shoulder: Due to poor posture, muscle strain, or overcompensation.
- Tennis or Golfers Elbow: Helps improve range of motion by addressing muscle weakness and tightness.

Injury Recovery
MAT aids in injury recovery by addressing muscular imbalances that hinder healing. Through targeted muscle activation, it enhances mobility, reduces pain, and accelerates the recovery process, helping individuals return to their activities more efficiently.
- Post-Surgery Rehabilitation: Works to reactivate muscles weakened by surgery to speed up healing and recovery. (e.g., after ACL repair or rotator cuff surgery).
- Soft Tissue Injuries: Assists in recovery from sprains, strains, or muscle tears by improving stability and function.
- Overuse Injuries: Such as shin splints, tendinitis, or plantar fasciitis.

Sports-Related Issues
MAT is effective for sports-related injuries by addressing muscle imbalances that impair performance and recovery. It promotes healing, reduces pain, and restores function, helping athletes return to their sport stronger and resilient.
- Muscle Tightness: Relieves persistent tightness that hinders athletic performance.
- Muscle Strains: Helps restore strength and function to strained muscles.
- Poor Athletic Performance: Improves muscle activation to optimize strength, speed, and endurance.
- Recurrent Injuries: Addresses underlying imbalances that may lead to repeated injuries.

Other Conditions
MAT can help with a variety of conditions by addressing underlying muscular imbalances that affect movement and function. It supports recovery, reduces pain, and improves overall mobility, offering relief for conditions like headaches, fatigue, and mobility restrictions.
- Fibromyalgia: Through reactivation of the neuromuscular system, the body can decrease the systemic inflammation and allow for healing to begin.
- Migraines and Tension Headaches: Alleviates muscular tension contributing to headaches.
- Sciatica: Addresses muscular imbalances that may compress or irritate the sciatic nerve.
