Dear MAT Community, 

As we approach the end of the year of 2023, I want to first individually thank you for another year of incredible work and dedication of perfecting your craft to better the health of your clientele. 

We reflect on the year as a whole and appreciate the positive response our community has had in our move to offering our education in a completely digital format through the MAT Community Network. This opportunity has opened doors for hard working professionals, such as yourself, to learn MAT effectively and efficiently.

We also want to reference the many events hosted at MAT headquarters where participants were celebrated for certifying at all levels of MAT this year. From Specialist and Mastery Certification events to MATRx Conferences, we have enjoyed teaching and connecting with you in person.

Whether you have just begun your MAT journey or you are a seasoned practitioner, we are always proud to hear about the difference you make every day. With each individual success, we continue to bring more awareness and opportunity that comes with expanding this modality so that eventually all can benefit from the power of Muscle Activation Techniques!

Looking forward into 2024, we have exciting new course options for every level of certification that we offer. With the launch of MAT Athlete and MATRx Foot and to the opportunity of the Specialist Certification bundles, we encourage you to continue to expand your skillset, advance your practice, and elevate your service offering in the New Year.

We are honored to support you in your growth as an MAT Practitioner.

 

Powerful Alone. Better Together.
We are Committed to Revolutionizing the Health Industry.

Launching MATRx Foot 

Ever since Greg has studied biomechanics, he has said, “Given that the foot is the first thing that hits the ground, the rest of the body has to react to what the foot does. There will always be an emphasis on the importance of foot mechanics because of its relationship with total body function. The integrated system is only as good as the function of its isolated parts!” 

There are 50 muscles that attach from the knee down. All these muscles must be able to contract efficiently in order for the muscles to support the foot, the ankle, and the knee joints. This upcoming course opportunity will teach the Rx Principles and the protocols for the most effective neuromuscular treatment to optimize foot function.   

Online course launching soon with practical workshop March 1-3, 2024. Registration will be $3,000.

Eligibility requirements: Mastery Foot Function Certified.
