WHAT IS

Assisted-Stretching?

In its most basic form, assisted-stretching is when you have a partner guide you into a variety of stretches. Assisted-stretching is often described as a middle ground between physical therapy and a massage. It’s not quite as labor-intensive or as painful as going through physical therapy, and it's not quite as relaxing as a massage because your muscles are being activated throughout the session. However, the effects of assisted-stretching are long-lasting, meaning you’ll notice a difference in how you move and feel for even a few days following your session!

Assisted-stretching uses a technique known as proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF). This is a combination of static and pre-contraction stretches, which work to reprogram the pain signals your muscles would typically send to your brain. This technique is what allows you to get comfortably into a deeper stretch to help increase range of motion and feel tension released immediately!

Who is Assisted-Stretching for?

If you spend your day sitting or hunched over a computer desk at work,

the muscles in your neck, shoulders, hips, and quads can all be shortened. It is especially important for these muscles to be stretched to prevent muscular imbalances.

If you work in a labor-intensive industry,

you use your entire body all day and perhaps find yourself in a variety of unnatural positions. Full-body stretching is essential to help loosen up all the overactive muscles and prevent injuries.

The better you are able to recover, the better you are able to perform!

No matter where you hold tension in your body, regular stretching can help relax your muscles and reduce stress and tension.

When you move better, you feel better! When you feel better, your quality of life improves.

"I just had the most incredible assisted stretch session with Stephanie. She came to my place and stretched muscles I didn’t even know I had. Her business is called Fit and Flexible. Text me if you want her info. I forgot how good it feels not to be a knotted stress ball."

"Stephanie was amazing! I’m a pretty tight person so the stretches felt amazing and I am so much more loose and flexible! She provided me with great stretches to help me moving forward. Excited to meet with her again."

“I honestly didn't know what assisted stretching was going into my session with Stephanie. Let me just say, ‘Wow!’ It felt so good and lasted for days! Not only that, but she followed up with me and gave me more stretches I can do on my own and exercises to help with my low back pain. I will definitely be going back to her!”

"I recently had my first session with Stephanie, and my first assisted stretching appointment in general. Stephanie was so easy going and professional/knowledgeable. I felt great after the session and will absolutely recommend her to family and friends and hope to set up future appointments with her myself too! Thank you Stephanie, you are wonderful!"

"I just had my first assisted stretching session. I really enjoyed it! My body feels very nicely aligned. What an invigorating experience--I feel taller now! Stephanie does such a super job of explaining everything and teaches where you will feel each stretch. My work is physically demanding and stretching sessions can really help me a lot. The best part is Stephanie is mobile so she will come to you! How convenient is that? Thanks, Stephanie!"

"Not only is Stephanie well educated on body mechanics, her passion shows through! I highly recommend!"
