In the equine world, balance and pain-free movement is essential for all disciplines to reach full potential; be it shaving a second off that barrel run, making it over that jump, performing that manoeuvre or stretching out down the home straight. The EMMETT Technique is a unique therapy involving the application of light pressure on specific points to affect immediate release in surrounding muscl
e tissue. Using light pressure, the technique works on unique points within muscles and muscle groups. Emmett needs to be performed with the right pressure, in the correct direction and with precise timing to achieve the best outcome. It can assist in alleviating muscle tension which can lead to pain, a reduced range of movement and performance in the leisure or competition horse or pony.
