For safe and effective use of The MAT, follow these guidelines:
Ensure a stable surface: Place The MAT on a flat, non-slip surface to prevent movement during use.
Maintain proper footwear: Users should wear appropriate footwear or go barefoot to optimize grip and accuracy depnding on tests performed.
Use in a clear space: Ensure the surrounding area is free from obstacles that may interfere with assessment movements.
Avoid excessive wear and tear: While The MAT is built for durability, avoid using sharp objects or heavy weights directly on its surface.
Store properly: When not in use, store The MAT flat or rolled in a clean, cool, dry environment to maintain its integrity.
Clean regularly: Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild detergent as needed. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents that may damage the surface.
Supervise when necessary: Ensure proper supervision when being used by individuals unfamiliar with movement assessments.
Check for damage: Regularly inspect The MAT for any signs of wear, such as cracks or fading markings, which may affect its accuracy.
Avoid extreme temperatures: Prolonged exposure to extreme heat or cold may affect the material's durability and flexibility.
Do not use as a landing pad: The MAT is not designed to absorb high-impact forces; avoid jumping or forcefully landing on its surface.
Secure when transporting: When carrying or transporting The MAT, ensure it is rolled or laid flat to prevent creasing or damage.
Be mindful of wet surfaces: If The MAT gets wet, dry it completely before use to prevent slipping hazards.
The MAT is crafted using high-quality materials to ensure durability, portability, and long-term use.
