Specificatii
Muscle energy techniques (METs) are a tool for physical therapists
to strengthen patients' weak muscles, restore normal muscle tone,
increase joint mobility, and improve circulation, musculoskeletal
function, and overall well-being. First developed in 1948 by
American osteopath Fred Mitchell, METs offer a valuable approach
for practitioners of physiotherapy, sports therapy, osteopathy,
chiropractic, yoga, and Pilates. METs are unique in their
application: rather than the therapist initiating the effort, the
patient contracts specific muscles against a resistance applied by
the therapist, who is simply guiding the exertion in a controlled
position and direction. While METs have been in practice for
decades, the theory behind them is often misunderstood and the
possibilities for their application overlooked. Muscle Energy
Techniques is the first affordable, accessible guide to METs for
students and practitioners of all levels. Author John Gibbons walks
readers through the assessment testing of chronically tight muscles
and shows how to apply a specific MET to correct dysfunctional
muscles and restore normality. Easy-to-follow postural muscle
tables and 160 full-color photographs and illustrations aid
practitioners in monitoring the progress of patients and provide
students with the underpinning knowledge of the specific anatomy.
The principles described can be incorporated quickly and
effectively into a treatment plan and used to assist in the
rehabilitation of anyone who is recovering from an injury. Table of
