    The Root of Motion specializes in Muscle Activation Techniques (MAT), a unique approach to bodywork that focuses on improving the connection between the brain and muscles. MAT sessions involve movement analysis, stretching, and targeted muscle activation to identify and correct weaknesses. This method aims to address the root cause of issues like pain, tightness, and poor body mechanics, leading to increased range of motion, stability, and strength. The Root of Motion also offers connective healing massage to support the body's natural healing processes. Clients report experiencing significant benefits from MAT, including relief from chronic pain and improved overall function. Many find MAT to be particularly helpful for persistent issues that haven't responded to traditional therapies like massage, acupuncture, chiropractic care, or physical therapy.
