Have you ever given 1-1 assisted stretching a try? Think of it as a way to literally just lie back and relax and let someone else do the work for you. Sometimes after a long day at work, a heavy gym session or after participating in your sport of choice, this is needed. Besides Yoga or Pilates, while great and extremely effective and beneficial, are not for everyone.

Let’s look at the benefits of what a 1-1 assisted stretching session can bring:

1. Enhanced Flexibility: It helps improve overall flexibility and range of motion therefore improving a persons overall mobility and therefore daily function.
2. Improved Muscle Recovery: Assisted stretching promotes faster recovery after workouts and doing sport by reducing muscle & joint soreness.
3. Increased Blood Flow: It can help with increased / better circulation, which feeds into the former by speeding up recovery.
4. Reduced Muscle & Joint Tension: By stretching out the soft tissue ie muscle helping reduce the built up tension in the tissue, which also reduces the tension in the tendons and reduces joint pressure and discomfort or pain.
5. Stress Reduction: Assisted stretching provides a calm, relaxing experience that can help reduce tension and stress.
6. Injury Prevention: Too many times I have seen people develop injuries that could have been prevented, because they chose to neglect their mobility work. Assisted stretching helps in preventing injuries by allowing deeper stretches than what you can perform on your own, and makes sure that all body parts are getting sufficiently stretched.
7. It’s Safe & Done Professionally: You are always under strict professional guidance when having an assisted stretching session, so there is less chance of an injury occurring, but also we make sure that any imbalances are addressed, which ties into the former.
