Course Description
Since the development of MET nearly 50 years ago,MET has undergone an expansion and a refinementin both theory and application. Leading thisdevelopment for more than 30 years has been Dr.Fred Mitchell, Jr., whose contributions andinnovations have brought MET into the vanguard ofmanual therapy modalities. Now you will have theopportunity to learn his revolutionary approach toevaluating the thoracic region, and his innovativeparadigms for understanding the complexrelationships between the thoracic spine, rib cage,and respiration. In the second of this comprehensive four partseries on MET, Dr. Mitchell will review keyfoundational concepts and mechanisms underlyingMET, followed by important details of the anatomyand biomechanics of the thoracic spine and rib cagecritical to effective diagnosis. Based on his morethan 45 years of experience applying MET, Dr.Mitchell will present multiple and alternativeprotocols for evaluating the thoracic region so thattherapists can feel confident in their diagnosis.From there, the gentle and effective treatmentprocedures for which MET is famous will bedemonstrated with opportunities for hands-onpractice and discussion.
