Muscle Activation Technique - Chiropractic Care, Ltd. 

Dan Johnson MATs, CPT

Dan Johnson is a Muscle Activation Technique specialist (MATs). Through MAT™  Dan will guide you through a unique systematic approach that objectively evaluates the body, identifies weak or inhibited muscles, and then treats muscular imbalances in the body that can come from or contribute to pain or injury. Addressing the weak or inhibited muscles found using this technique, rather than the muscle tightness itself, will help get to the root of what is causing the pain or injury. Through this process each session, we are helping to take away unnecessary compensatory patterns, and restore the body's natural alignment and movement.

At both of our offices, we provide Muscle Activation Techniques
performed by a certified specialist. MAT is a form of manual therapy that uses a dynamic approach to help identify and treat muscular imbalances that relate to pain, injury, fatigue, and weakness and speed muscle recovery. MAT prepares the body for all types of sports and exercise, physical therapy and chiropractic work. As it helps restore proper body mechanics and range of motion, it will make sure you have stability along with mobility.
