A Good Stretch

What is assisted stretching?
Assisted stretching is where a professional uses gentle moves and controlled pressure to guide your body into positions that can be difficult to achieve on your own, helping you achieve a greater range of motion and release muscle tension and relieve pain.

Latest research highlights the importance of fascia in keeping us moving and alleviating pain. Fascia is the connective tissue that runs throughout your whole body, wrapping around muscles, suspending organs and bones and integrating the nervous, circulatory and lymphatic systems. Assisted stretching helps fascia fluid and healthy.

This is more invigorating and relaxing than a massage. I feel so relaxed after this session, but I also feel alert and happy. I've never had a stretch session and I think this is exactly what I've been looking for to strengthen my back.

First visit — felt amazing! Huge thanks for the friendly, professional approach, very accommodating my pre-existing injuries. Will be back!

After 4 months of assisted stretching, Margie continues to do the impossible. I keep being amazed that my flexibility continues to improve. It has helped so much in my passion of cycling... been able to have my handlebars lowered to a more aggressive position, resulting in significant more power and control. Also with a greater range of neck movement sideways, I have a greater peripheral view and therefore safety. This also translates to similar safety when driving my car and looking over my shoulder for blind spot traffic. Now that I am cycling harder the subsequent shortening of muscles and tight tissues and joints are being addressed ..which results in a faster recovery. Thanks so much.

This is next level amazing! I was actually going to go for a massage but decided to try this instead and it was so what I needed!
Treat yo self!
