About Stretch Therapy Services
Stretch therapy is basically assisted stretching done by a trained therapist. Instead of you stretching yourself, they guide and support your body into stretches while you stay relaxed and breathe.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is stretch therapy?
Stretch therapy is performed on a table or mat, fully clothed. You don’t do the work – the therapist moves your limbs and positions your body. Stretches are slow, controlled, and tailored to your body and limits (no forcing). Stretch therapy is often combined with light pressure, joint mobilization, or breath coaching.
What conditions can stretch therapy treat?
Stretch therapy can treat a wide range of conditions, including chronic muscle tightness, lower back pain, postural issues, limited range of motion in joints, muscle imbalances, and general stiffness due to aging or inactivity.
How does stretch therapy work?
Stretch therapy works by changing how your muscles, joints, and nervous system respond to movement—not just by “pulling muscles longer.” It calms the nervous system, improves joint range of motion, resets muscle length and tension, improves circulation and tissue hydration, and builds body awareness.
Is stretch therapy safe?
Yes, stretch therapy is generally safe when performed by a trained and licensed therapist. Our therapists assess each patient individually to ensure the techniques used are appropriate for their condition and health status.
What can I expect during a stretch therapy session?
During a stretch therapy session, the therapist will first assess your condition and discuss your symptoms and goals. The session will then involve hands-on techniques such as assisted stretching, massage, or mobilization to address your specific issues.
