Muscle Energy Techniques (MET) are manual therapy approaches that use a patient’s active muscle contractions against resistance to improve flexibility, mobility, and strength. MET is highly effective for treating musculoskeletal issues, particularly in cases of muscle tightness, joint restrictions, and postural imbalances. It works by resetting the muscle’s length-tension relationship, thereby reducing pain and improving function. This technique is often used in sports rehabilitation and postural correction programs.
