Staging – MAT – Muscle Activation Techniques

Become a Highly Skilled MAT Practitioner in 1 Year

Clearer assessments change everything—your results, the complexity of cases you can take on, and the level of clients who trust you. This is for professionals ready to elevate how they think, decide, and operate.

Real Feedback.

Real Clinical Results.

When outcomes matter, practitioners rely on systems that provide clarity, precision, and repeatable results. MAT delivers a structured approach trusted for real-world performance and clinical change.

"MAT changed how I think about tightness, pain, and movement entirely. I can finally identify why motion disappears instead of guessing-and my results are more consistent than ever."

“It changed everything. MAT brought clarity to my work. Instead of chasing tightness, now I understand why muscles aren’t functioning.”

“My assessments became clearer and my results more consistent once I understood what was actually limiting movement.”

The Problem

As a Healthcare Professional, you’ve likely seen this pattern:

Clients improve, then regress.
Tightness and mobility issues keep returning.
Progress plateaus without a clear explanation.
Results depend heavily on experience and intuition.
You end up reassessing, guessing, and working around the problem instead of solving it.
Clients eventually stop showing up because they aren't progressing in a timely manner.

Over time, outcomes feel less predictable than they should for a trained professional.

The Solution

MAT produces more predictable results with it's systematic process.

It tests muscle contractile efficiency at the position where stability is required.
It identifies whether a muscle can actually perform its job, before compensation occurs.
It removes guessing by using a repeatable, decision-making process.
It restores stability first, so mobility gains actually stick.

The MAT 5-Step Process establishes a repeatable way to evaluate function and guide next steps.

The 1-Year MATPro Pathway

A professional transformation—not a collection of courses.

MATPro develops how you assess, decide, and operate as a professional. Over one year, practitioners move from managing symptoms to confidently identifying why motion disappears—and knowing exactly what to do next.

As a certified MAT Practitioner you gain the following:

Clear Decisive Assessments.

Test neuromuscular function and joint stability with confidence—not guesswork.

Confidence with complex cases.

Recurring pain, stalled progress, and chronic limitations become systematic and solvable.

Clinical-level decision-making.

Know what to test, why it matters, and how to act on what you find.

Expanded professional scope.

Greater credibility, higher-level clients, and a raised professional ceiling.

Practitioner-level thinking.

A system that transfers across populations, demands, and environments.

Each phase builds on the last—creating one continuous path to real practitioner readiness.

Lower Body

Learn to assess and restore contractile efficiency in the lower body, establishing stable joints and repeatable movement patterns.

Upper Body

Apply the MAT process to the upper body, improving stability while refining assessment accuracy and decision-making.

Trunk & Spine

Develop deeper understanding of trunk and spinal stabilization, connecting local muscle function to global movement control.

Full Body

Integrate the entire system—linking lower, upper, and trunk assessments into confident, full-body clinical decision-making.

MAT Certification

Complete

Stop Guessing. Start Knowing What to Address and Why.

MATPro is a 1-year, hands-on education that teaches professionals how to assess muscle function, restore joint stability, and make confident decisions without guesswork.
