EMMETT Technique

EMMETT Technique

EMMETT Technique is a light touch muscle release therapy developed by its Australian Founder, Ross Emmett. It aims to help with pain or restricted movement. It was originally developed on animals and Ross found that he achieved the best result for the animal with a light touch. It may be enjoyed by people of all ages and to its gentle nature it is safe for use on babies and the elderly.

It works using the application of pressure to muscle groups using specific points throughout the body called EMMETT points. The Therapist either holds two points together, or makes a light switch across a point.

The relaxing nature of the technique results in people reporting typical responses such as:

  • Improved comfort and ease within the area treated such as back, abdomen, hips, legs, knees, ankles feet, shoulders, arms, hands and neck
  • More restful sleep
  • Enhanced mood
  • A sense of lightness within the body

While individual experiences may vary, relief is often instantaneous.

EMMETT Technique is a complete therapy and treatments may be done while you are clothed although some garments may need to be removed or loosened. A standalone treatment is for up to 30 minutes. The technique has the ability to work in combination with or to complement other treatments, thus it may used alongside Massage, Reflexology or Bowen, for example, for a more efficient client outcome. Such sessions would usually be at least 60 minutes.

Many EMMETT moves are available for self use, and so a one-day workshop with Nicola McDermid is also available so that you may learn EMMETT moves to help yourself, your friends or family.

Nicola McDermid, who is also an Advanced EMMETT Technique Practitioner and EMMETT Technique Tutor and Instructor, will often apply it with Massage, Reiki, or Reflexology depending on the clients areas of concern. Neil Milliken uses EMMETT Technique most often with Bowen Technique which is also a light touch therapy.
