Read about everything Nicole has to say about Muscle Activation Techniques® below!
“I am Nicole Moneer. I am a NASM certified personal trainer. A long time ago I wanted to get certified in MAT® [Muscle Activation Techniques®]. I always wondered what it was about and hear nothing but good things about it. When Charlie and the Schaumburg location [Muscle Activation Schaumburg] contacted me regarding these treatments, I was all for it.
“I was like, ‘Okay, am I really going to notice anything?’. And so, just like being a trainer, a lot of clients will come in and think like ‘one hour’ or ‘a couple sessions’ will get them the results that they want, and I can totally relate because that is not the case. My clients are not successful just because of one session. It’s from several sessions.
“So, with this [MATRx®], during the six sessions I didn’t really start to notice a difference in how I felt or how I moved until about the fourth or fifth session. What I noticed coming in here is that, at age 45, I am able to do pretty much everything. I’ve never broken any bones or anything like that, but I do have aches and pains and tightness and stuff like that. Foam rolling helps and I teach pilates and yoga and all that helps, and corrective [exercises] and strength training. But this [MATRx®] I feel has really helped more long term, whereas when I am doing pilates, yoga, and foam rolling I get relief for that day or those couple days and then I start to do the same patterns I’ve done before and then I feel that tightness again.
“With this [MATRx®], since it does help in strengthening and waking up those muscles that are asleep, I notice that I don’t have clicking in my groin and my hip flexor area. I’ve also had a clicking or tightness in my hamstring around my left knee. That has been since my pregnancy. I have noticed that is pretty much reduced as well. I really feel stronger and balanced when I am working out.
“I would definitely recommend this [MATRx®] to anybody, including my clients, which I know I have several who are interested. When people [clients] work with me, there is usually a tribe of people that I work with too, so I know a lot of people respect and value who I work with and my opinion and my recommendations. So, with that said, a couple of my clients are already interested in coming here because of the results I have shared with them and with what they have going on as well. I highly recommend MAT® and Charlie and I am grateful for the experience.”
