You don't have to be flexible to get started. That's why we're here!

What Is Assisted Stretching?

Assisted stretching is a personalized session in which a trained professional gently guides your body through a series of stretches.

Unlike stretching on your own, assisted stretching allows you to relax while your stretch trainer helps you achieve comfortable positions that may be difficult to reach independently.

Each session is customized to your flexibility, mobility, comfort level, and personal goals.

Whether you want to touch your toes, improve your golf swing, or simply feel more comfortable getting out of bed in the morning, we're here to help.

What to Expect During Your Session

Your stretch trainer will begin by discussing your goals, areas of tightness, and any limitations you may have.

You'll then relax on a comfortable padded table while your trainer gently guides you through a series of customized stretches.

Your trainer will communicate with you throughout your session to ensure every stretch is comfortable and appropriate for your body.

Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely. No special equipment or previous stretching experience is necessary.

Who Can Benefit from Assisted Stretching?

Assisted stretching isn't just for athletes or people who are already flexible. It can be beneficial for adults of many ages and fitness levels.

It's especially appealing if you:

Experience muscle tightness or stiffness.
Want to maintain flexibility as you age.
Spend extended periods sitting or working at a desk.
Enjoy activities such as golf, pickleball, walking, or gardening.
Want to complement your personal training, Pilates, or group fitness routine.
Simply enjoy having dedicated time to relax and focus on your body.

Sessions are adapted to your individual needs. If you have a recent injury, surgery, osteoporosis, joint instability, or another condition affecting movement, consult your healthcare provider before beginning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is assisted stretching painful?

No. Stretching should feel gentle and controlled, never painful. Your trainer will adjust each stretch based on your comfort and flexibility.

How is assisted stretching different from massage?

Massage primarily focuses on manipulating soft tissues to promote relaxation and relieve muscle tension. Assisted stretching focuses on gently moving your joints and muscles through their available range of motion to improve flexibility and mobility.

Both services can complement one another.

How often should I schedule assisted stretching?

That depends on your goals, current mobility, and activity level. Regular sessions combined with appropriate stretching at home may help you maintain improvements over time.

Do I need to be physically fit?

Absolutely not! Our goal is to meet you where you are. Each session can be adapted to your current ability and comfort level.
