Description

A form of manual therapy that uses the muscle contractions of the client to relax and lengthen the tissues and normalize joint motion. It is considered an active technique, as opposed to a passive technique where only the practitioner/trainer does the work. Muscles on one side of a joint will always relax to accommodate the contraction of the opposing muscles of that joint when indirect pressure is applied. This technique is often applied to clients who suffer from muscle spasms and the process of lengthening shortened or spastic muscles, to improve weakened ligament and muscle strength, help to directly improve range of motion.
