1 Muscle Energy Technique Versus Corticosteroid Injection for Management of Chronic Lateral Epicondylitis: Randomized Controlled Trial With 1-Year Follow-up  Sami Küçükşen, MD, Halim Yilmaz, MD, Ali Sallı, MD, Hatice Uğurlu, MD  Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  Volume 94, Issue 11, Pages (November 2013) DOI: /j.apmr Copyright © 2013 American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 MET for lateral epicondylitis. The patient's elbow is stabilized with 1 hand (star). The forearm is supinated with the operator's other hand until resistance or discomfort is detected. The patient performs an isometric effort of forearm pronation against the unyielding counterforce of the therapist for 5 seconds. Immediately afterward, the forearm supination is increased until resistance is met once again. After a period of 5 seconds of relaxation, the procedure is repeated 3 to 5 times during a single treatment session.
