Active Technique.
Lasting Range of Motion.
Muscle Energy Technique and guided stretching, used to unlock range of motion, reduce pain and correct the movement patterns holding you back.
Two Techniques, Working Together — Tweed Heads
METs & Stretching combines an active, hands-on technique with guided take-home cues — so the results of your session don't just fade the next day.
Muscle Energy Technique (METs)
An active technique where you engage a muscle against gentle resistance from Mark, then relax. Repeating this over multiple reps progressively increases your range of motion each time and resets the muscle's natural resting tone and length — great for increasing range of motion, decreasing pain and improving movement patterns.
Guided Stretches
A deeper explanation of cues — what to do, how to do it, and what to avoid — to help increase the benefit and longevity of results from your treatment, so progress continues between appointments rather than resetting each time.
When Stretching Alone Isn't Moving the Needle
METs & Stretching suits clients whose range of motion hasn't budged with passive stretching alone, or who need an active technique to reset how a muscle holds tension.
Restricted range of motion
Joints or muscles that feel locked up and haven't responded to regular stretching.
Athletes
Improving flexibility and movement patterns to support performance and reduce injury risk.
Post-injury recovery
Structured, active work to rebuild mobility safely after an injury.
Movement pattern correction
Addressing the underlying pattern, not just the tight muscle it shows up in.

Active technique, in-clinic
