In the world of body therapy, where many techniques involve deep pressure or intensive manipulation, the Emmett Technique stands out for its simplicity, precision, and effectiveness. This gentle form of muscle release therapy is gaining global recognition for its ability to bring rapid relief from pain and discomfort — often in just a few minutes.

What is the Emmett Technique?

The Emmett Technique is a unique body therapy created by Ross Emmett, an Australian therapist with a keen understanding of the human body’s responses to light touch. At its core, this technique uses small, precise pressure on specific points (known as "Emmett points") to trigger a relaxation response in muscle tissue and fascia.
Unlike traditional massage or deep tissue work, the Emmett Technique doesn’t rely on force. Instead, it works with the body’s nervous system to resetand reprogram muscular function.

“If you ask the body the right question, it gives you the right answer.”
— Ross Emmett
