Have to agree with others here. Your hand holds and smooth transitions between all of the movements are incredible! I'm an Australian physiotherapist and have already purchased your MET book.

[nicandroamores]

Thats a great technique with a very smooth transition and do variations considering all the complexities of the shoulder.

[daboilingpoint]

Omg this was amazing!! I naturally do these type of stretches on myself and on my lymphatic clients without evening knowing the name and understanding, give or take a few things. I just feel with my senses and understand the assignment!

But this was great info cuz I currently been dealing with a pain in my right shoulder I been trying to work out on my own! But now I know and understand I can find someone who specializes in this type of therapy to fix my shoulder!☺️🙏🏾

Hi John, I am a sports massage therapist. I love seeing your dynamic way of working and have learnt a lot from seeing different MET's (I'd got stuck in my limited set). I have been suffering with carpal tunnel, tennis elbow and TOS from too much deep pressure so have now started to relearn MET's so that I can carry on working. Your videos are very helpful.
Who are they aimed at? I was wondering if they are really meant for Osteo/Chiro students?
