Product Description

Review

"I'm rather taken with the new edition of this book. Dr. Chaitow has gathered well known experts from several disciplines and has crafted a book that will be used by all of them. A great deal of care has gone into this book. There is a wealth of clinical information and a very good overview of research regarding the use of MET in managing a range of conditions and clinical situations. The focus on other disciplines is a great plus in this new edition. I recommend it."

Weighted Numerical Score 95 - 4 Stars!

By: Dana J. Lawrence, DC of Doody's Book Reviews


This book does not disappoint. Everything you ever wanted to know about [MET's] is contained within these pages. The format is very user friendly and the book is littered with clinically relevant ideas and techniques. It is sure to help enhance your practice.

- Steve Canning, In Touch, Spring 2008, No. 122.

Product Description

This book describes the basis and practice of MET ie those manipulative techniques in which a patient, on request, actively uses his or her muscles from a controlled position in a specific direction against a distinct counterforce applied by the practitioner. This is now a widely recognised approach to the treatment of musculoskeletal dysfunction. It combines methods used in physical therapy, osteopathy, chiropractic and manual medicine. The text provides a comprehensive and up-to-date presentation of the techniques. The DVD-ROM includes video clips to demonstrate the application of the techniques and so supports and supplements the text.

4.0 out of 5 stars professional, 13 May 2011
This review is from: Muscle Energy Techniques with DVD-ROM (Paperback)
Very professional position, with in depth explanation and clinical guidance for practitioners. Has a lot of reference at the end. I bought it as a help for my yoga teaching practice to understand the body deeper and in the different perspective. Requires a lot of subject knowledge to understand. Not for beginners. Cd requires to have Java JRE installed.

5.0 out of 5 stars MET simplified, 3 Aug 2011
I was looking for a book on muscle energy technique to supplement my ITEC level 3 sports massage studies.

I had looked at other publications joint authored by Leon Chaitow and whilst these were very detailed with some accompanied by an instructional DVD, they were way beyond my current level of study.

This book however was ideal for my needs and I found it very accessible.

I would recommend it to any entry level sports massage student, as well as a good reference for the more experienced practitioner.Muscle Energy Techniques (Advanced soft tissue techniques)
