Therapeutic Stretching

Stretching is a form of physical exercise in which a specific muscle or tendon is deliberately expanded and flexed in order to improve the muscle’s felt elasticity and achieve comfortable muscle tone. The result is a feeling of increased muscle control, flexibility, and range of motion. Stretch therapy encompasses a variety of techniques structured together to address stiffness in muscles and joints, which can lead to movement dysfunction and increased injury risk. Stretch therapy protocols can be used on many areas of the body and are based on the location of your specific imbalances.  Some benefits include increasing range of motion, easing pain, improving mood and focus, relieving headaches, increasing blood flow and relieving stress.
