Myoskeletal Alignment Techniques® have revolutionized my approach to massage therapy. They’ve helped integrate and solidify the knowledge and skills I’ve gained over the past 17 years—including clinical and orthopedic massage, soft tissue work, myofascial release, corrective exercise, activation techniques, structural integration, and neuromuscular concepts.
I was drawn to Myoskeletal Alignment because it’s a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to pain management. It focuses on identifying and correcting the underlying asymmetries and movement patterns that lead to pain and dysfunction. Erik Dalton’s work continues to evolve as he incorporates the latest research into his teaching. This allows us, as MAT practitioners, to stay current and apply the most effective techniques available.
I’m passionate about sharing this work with clients and fellow bodyworkers. I believe it’s essential to understand how to create meaningful, lasting changes in our clients as efficiently as possible. I’m grateful to Erik and his team for their dedication to advancing the field of massage therapy. Their work has helped me become a more effective and knowledgeable therapist.
