Muscle Activation Techniques is a revolutionary and thorough approach to solving mechanical problems in the body. MAT improves function by eliminating weakness from the body one muscle at a time, much like tripping a breaker in a fuse box. MAT is an inverse approach to common therapeutic modalities such as massage, ART, Graston Techniques, Rolfing, and Acupuncture because it recognizes that excess tension can only exist when neuromuscular weakness is present in an opposing motion. This weakness is due to stress, trauma, or overuse, and prevents a fully shortened muscular contraction, thus opposing protective tension is created accordingly. The one objective of muscles is to contract, thereby providing and resisting motion at joints. Removing a muscle's ability to contract (stretching) inherently reduces this capacity, rendering it counter-productive in nature.
