How does MLT work?
The teaching or training method involves learning, through repetition and reinforcement. It trains how to reduce the muscle loading in the areas that count: the neck, shoulders, back, arms, and hands. It is critical that it be reduced DURING work, not just during designated rests. Ten-minute breaks canít go back in time and correct what has already been done. Taking a break is important but not as much as reducing the extra muscle loading along with reducing sympathetic activity at the time you do the work. By correcting overly responsive muscle behavior (reducing sympathetic muscle loading during work) we effect long-term change. Ettare Corporation has been doing that kind of muscle training for over 27 years and with excellent results. It is called Muscle Learning TherapyÆ or MLTÆ. MLT forces the muscles to become more efficient while at the same time helping to reduce the major contributor to the problem, i.e. the sympathetic response from being rushed, overwhelmed, or overtaxed.
