[Introduction] The M-Test (meridian test) is an easy and quick method for determining the precise meridian that requires treatment. In this test, a series of 30 simple tests involving the entire body are performed to identify the affected meridian responsible for the restricted movement. The purpose of this study is to determine whether individuals can effectively perform static stretching exercises based on the concept of the M-test on their own. We performed the following 2 research projects. [Project 1] Developing methods for static stretching that are based on the concept of the M-test. [Methods] Four methods by which individuals could perform stretching exercises on their own (MTS) were developed on the basis of the concept of the M-test. The muscle activity during each stretching period was measured using surface electromyography. [Results & Discussion] The trunk muscles—especially the external oblique muscle and internal oblique muscle—were involved in all 4 kinds of the MTS. In particular, the muscle activity during the MTS was high in the front and lateral sides of the body. [Project 2] Practicing methods for static stretching that are based on the concept of the M-Test. [Methods] The MTS was practiced on elderly persons. These participants later filled a questionnaire survey for determining the difficulty of performing and the applicability of the MTS. [Results & Discussion] The elderly persons who had participated in this study could perform the MTS alone. They felt that the usual static stretching exercises were easier to perform than the MTS was. Approximately 80% of the participating elderly persons hoped that MTS would be used in the future. [Conclusion] It is necessary to guide it continuously for the MTS to be accepted as a routine exercise. We wish to establish this test as a routine test by providing information regarding the MTS and M-Test as methods for increasing awareness of the body.
