A sequence is a series of techniques applied to a region or joint. Erik selected and ordered methods to give you the best shot at correcting the biomechanical issues that drive restricted movement, protective guarding, and pain.

• Discover the biomechanics behind the design of each regional sequence and practice sequences with support from MAT Educators and Teaching Assistants.
• Use kinetic-chain thinking to identify restrictions that feed common pain patterns.
• Learn why Erik designed MAT techniques to apply complex, layered loads to create the proprioceptive input needed to change the brain’s pain response.
• Practice MAT techniques organized into effective regional sequences and put them to work right away in your session room.
• Improve foot mechanics, ankle mobility, patella tracking, and femoral position to enhance lower extremity function.
• Address pelvic imbalances through sequences that work with SI motion, the deep rotators, and underrecruited gluteal muscles.
• Relieve low-back pain by freeing hip extension and easing sacral-lumbar compression.
• Achieve better thoracic spine and rib motion which improves neck and shoulder mechanics.
• Master Erik’s signature neck techniques, built to restore comfortable cervical motion.
• Improve elbow, wrist, and hand mechanics with an upper extremity sequence clients love.

New to MAT? These sequences are your road map. You’ll see for yourself, in real time, how combining these techniques changes the way clients move and feel by the end of the session.

Already Practicing MAT? This is where your skills get strategic. You’ll learn how technique order and regional relationships sharpen your clinical reasoning, help you track compensatory patterns through the kinetic chain, and make every session more responsive to what’s actually in front of you.
