Tammy's Seeing Clients Again!

Following a serious soccer injury in July, Tammy is now almost fully recovered from tammysurgery to repair a ruptured patellar tendon.  Though she has been in the office attending to her duties as operations manager, clients have certainly missed her treatments, and we are all delighted that she is again available to see clients.  In addition to being an accomplished massage therapist using neuromuscular and sports massage techniques to facilitate performance, relieve chronic pain and support injury rehabilitation, Tammy is also a certified Muscle Activation Techniques (MAT) specialist, having completed a rigorous 10-month internship with over 300 hours of required coursework and over 500 hours of hands-on experience. Read on to learn more about this very effective technique in the next article.  Call now to make your appointment!  703-522-7637
What is MAT?

Muscle Activation Techniques (MAT) is a dynamic muscular assessment system that analyzes and corrects muscular imbalances. It has been used successfully to reduce and eliminate recurring or chronic pain and fatigue, as well as to support recovery from injury for athletes and non-athletes alike.

MAT can help people who have:

Muscular tightness
Scar tissue
Muscular weakness
Adhesions
Joint irritation
Inflammation
Loss of mobility
Balance Problems
Post surgical recovery
Impaired Performance
Fatigue

This unique method was developed by Greg Roskopf, a biomechanics expert who has worked as a consultant for the Denver Broncos, Denver Nuggets and the Utah Jazz. For more information, please visit www.muscleactivation.com.
