Muscle Energy Techniques (MET) are advanced manual therapy methods that use the patient's own gentle muscle contractions to improve joint mobility, restore muscle balance, reduce pain, and correct movement dysfunctions. Unlike forceful manipulation, MET is a safe and controlled treatment approach that allows the body to naturally improve flexibility and alignment through active patient participation.
At Revival HealthCare Services, our physiotherapists use Muscle Energy Techniques to treat conditions such as neck pain, lower back pain, pelvic dysfunction, muscle tightness, spinal stiffness, joint restrictions, and postural imbalances. During treatment, patients perform gentle, controlled muscle contractions against the therapist's resistance, followed by carefully guided stretching and joint positioning. This technique helps relax overactive muscles, improve flexibility, restore normal joint movement, reduce muscle spasms, and enhance overall body mechanics. MET is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing movement restrictions caused by muscular imbalance or prolonged poor posture.
