WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE THERAPY?

HOW DOES ASSISTED STRETCHING DIFFER FROM REGULAR STRETCHING?

With regular stretching, you do the work yourself. Some people find it hard to know the proper way to stretch and which muscles to focus on for optimum positive impact.

 

Without having the accountability of a regular stretch routine, many people will stretch minimally or not at all.

With assisted stretching, the work is done for you.  

 

Working one-on-one with an experienced stretch therapist who has knowledge of anatomy, physiology and stretching techniques, and yoga, will take you through a thorough routine of stretching personalised for your particular needs.  

 

During some stretches, you will be encouraged to completely relax your limbs to get the most out of the stretch. For other stretches you may be asked to engage and work the muscles. If you’re not good at stretching on your own, stretch therapy sessions can help keep you accountable to improving your body through stretching.

​

The treatment is personalised for each particular client and can be focused on particular parts of the body depending on the client’s needs and goals.

​

STRETCHING IN IMPORTANT

Whether you’re doing yoga, gym pilates or reaching for something in your cupboard, you want your body to work the way it should. The goal of stretching is to help you move  freely and with ease, without pain or discomfort.

​

There are 700 muscles in our bodies that are continuously working to move our bodies. Muscles take different sizes and shapes and arrange around joints in complex ways. Even simple movements can engage up to nineteen different muscles!

 

Stretching is often neglected despite being a central and important part of life and health. Due to lack of experience, knowledge, time or motivation, many people skip the stretch.

Together we can create a personalised stretch routine just for you.
