A method of manual therapy used in the correction of musculo-skeletal dysfunction in the fields of medicine, athletics, and entertainment that uses ligamentous tissue to influence musculo-tendonous hypertonicity, correction of numerous muscular and skeletal pathologies can be made. The method uses the influence of light tactile pressure to ligament receptors to regulate and reprogram muscular stiffness much in the same way activity in primary muscle spindle afferents, modify muscle tonicity The steps are as follows: location of e the symptomatic anatomy, targeted muscle or muscles are shortened to relax muscle-spindle fibers, application of light to mild static tactile engagement of the corresponding ligament found by use of pre-determined referral patterns then held for 15-30 seconds or until the muscle tissue has released it's tension, muscle lengthening and re-assessment. The last two steps are repeated until 80-95% reduction in abnormal muscle tension trigger-points is met.
