Have you heard of Assisted Stretching?

Assisted stretching is a technique where a trained professional helps you stretch out your muscles to achieve a deeper stretch than you can on your own. This can involve holding your limbs in certain positions, applying pressure to specific muscles, dynamic movements, or using specialized equipment.

It's a new technique that has shown some amazing benefits.

Benefits of Stretching

No matter your age, fitness level or mobility restrictions, stretching is for you!

Alleviates Muscle Tension

By applying controlled pressure and gentle stretching, therapists encourage muscle fibers to relax. This releases tension and promotes better blood flow, providing immediate relief from discomfort and pain.

Improves Flexibility & Range of Motion

Muscles can be taught something new, at any point in life. A consistent stretching routine leads to improves range of motion in your joints, less trigger points in the muscle itself and continual improvements to your flexibility.

Improves Posture

Our muscles respond to what we do most often. If we sit for 8 hours of work or do the same motion on an assembly line all day, our body will change to reinforce those patterns. A good stretch can break bad muscle habits and restore proper posture, getting you out of pain and ready to take on a new day.

Improves Sports Performance

No matter your level of sport/exercise, mobility is key. When you move better, your training can reach new heights! Having better stretch in your muscles will help prevent painful strains & sprains as well as improving reaction times.

Reduce Stress

Our culture prioritizes the rush of our daily lives. Slow down and relax your mind & body during an assisted stretch. Stretching releases your brain's feel-good neurotransmitters, called endorphins.

Improves Sleep Quality

We all know that a good night’s sleep is essential for overall health and well-being. Proper assisted stretching techniques lead to reduced stress levels, relaxed muscles and improved circulation, which create ideal conditions for restorative sleep. When you sleep better, your body has more time to repair and regenerate, supporting your overall physical and mental health.

Meet our Functional Trainer

Rebecca Lazelle

Rebecca has a passion for fitness and health and that has led her to working on our team here at Arrowhead Family Chiropractic. She is a Crossfit athlete & trainer and loves traveling for competitions with other members of our local Crossfit gym. She likes to hike and bike and enjoys outdoors activities with her boyfriend on her off time. 

She has been through training here at AFC to perform Functional Movement Screens. Our Functional Movement Screen helps show the limitations in mobility that you specifically have and gives you an overall score. This can help screen for the possibility of a sports injury, movement asymmetry and range of motion limitations that maybe even you didn't know you had. 

Her focus during the Assisted Stretching is to improve your functional score as well as focus on any tension or pain you are experiencing at each visit. With a consistent routine of stretching, you can stop worrying about issues popping up out of nowhere. She will help fix your tension even before it causes you issues in your daily routine.

One-on-One Assisted Stretching with one of our Functional Trainers

Decrease pain, move better & feel better, one stretch at a time.

Our expert trainers offer 25 minute or 50 minute stretch sessions.

An Assisted Stretch consists of relaxing on a massage table while your trainer moves your arms and legs around to put you into stretching positions. This allows your muscles to remain loose and you gain more range of motion than when stretching on your own. 

How do I start?

All of our new members will be evaluated with a tool known as a Functional Movement Screen.
