Description
This comprehensive guide to Muscle Energy Techniques (METs) presents clear guidelines for their applications, based on the latest scientific research and within the framework of whole-person health care. With over 50 instructional videos and colour illustrations, it provides a step-by-step approach to applying METs in the treatment of musculoskeletal dysfunction, pain, and functional movement.
Expert contributors from various clinical settings share their insights on the use of METs in a range of scenarios, including acute and chronic pain conditions, trauma and injuries in athletes, and their integration into physiotherapy, chiropractic, osteopathic, massage therapy, and rehabilitation environments. This fifth edition also explores the use of METs within the biopsychosocial framework for whole-person healthcare.
With its evidence-based approach and emphasis on clinical reasoning, this manual is an invaluable resource for healthcare professionals and students seeking to understand and apply METs in their practice.
