Emmett Technique
About:
The EMMETT Technique is a unique form of body therapy.
It involves the application of light finger pressure at specific points, referred to as “Emmett points”.
The points are not the same as traditional trigger points or acupressure points or any other points described in any other therapy.
The pressure required to stimulate the EMMETT points does not need to be firm or painful. “No pain no gain” has no place in EMMETT Technique philosophy.
The EMMETT Therapist is skilled in the art of applying:
the right amount of pressure
in the right direction
for the right amount of time
It is this combination of elements, unique to each individual, which creates the desired physical change.
Although often combined with other techniques, the EMMETT Technique is an efficient and effective therapy on its own.
Clients can be treated seated, standing or lying down.
It can be a standalone treatment or combined with other techniques.
The treatment can be applied directly to the skin or done through clothing.
Sessions can last anywhere from 10 minutes to 30 minutes if the EMMETT Technique is used alone – longer if combined with a relaxing massage or other modality.
It is suggested that the EMMETT Technique may interact with the body as described in the science of Critical Point Analysis which identifies that…
“In any highly complex system there is a specific, critical point at which the smallest input will result in the greatest change”
For example a light touch on a small cog can halt the largest engine.
The EMMETT Technique Therapist can be compared to a body electrician who has the knowledge to locate these critical points and re-set them with the correct stimulation.
The stimulation is registered by the receiver’s nervous system and their brain responds by sending new instructions back to affect the physical state of the localized area.
The result is often instantaneous physical change.
Special language skills are incorporated to reinforce and anchor the positive physical changes greatly enhancing the outcome.
The EMMETT Technique was formally launched in 1999 and expanded internationally in 2007.
It has been growing in popularity ever since and has proved to have wide appeal as therapists, medical and exercise professionals across many modalities have completed the EMMETT Technique Practitioner training program.
Alright, imagine your horse’s body is like a complex machine, full of muscles and connections that allow it to move, jump, run, and even just stand comfortably. When a part of that machine gets a bit “stuck” or “tight,” it can affect how the whole thing works.
The Emmett Technique is a very gentle, hands-on therapy that helps to release those “stuck” bits. Instead of forcing anything, we use light pressure on very specific points on your horse’s body. Think of these points as little switches that, when gently pressed, send a message to the nervous system. This message tells the tight muscles and surrounding tissues to relax and let go.
