Muscle Energy Technique - Post Isometric Relaxation

Develop your skills and increase your ability to be precise using Muscle Energy.  Muscle energy techniques are used to treat somatic dysfunction, especially decreased range of motion, muscular hypertonicity and pain. One of the aims of the workshop is to encourage your independence of thought so that you can confidently apply MET to any area of the body.  

What you will achieve:
  • An understanding of the physiological effects of MET

  • An understanding of the mechanism of the technique

  • The ability to apply safe and effective PIR to lower limb but also come away with the understanding of how to work out its’ application to any part of the body
  • The ability and understanding of when to apply passive and active MET to lower limb
  • The appropriate understanding of when to apply it and its’ contraindications
  • The ability to test range of motion for hip, knee and ankle
