    At Wrightstown Health and Fitness, we offer personalized one-on-one assisted stretching sessions designed to improve flexibility, enhance range of motion, support injury prevention, and elevate overall well-being. Whether you’re an athlete, office worker, weekend warrior, or simply seeking to move more freely, our stretch therapy can be a powerful tool in your wellness routine.

    What to Expect

    Tailored, One-on-One Sessions
    Every session is conducted by a professionally trained therapist who works with you one-on-one to create a plan that meets your specific needs and goals. Whether you’re targeting chronic tightness, recovering from injury, or looking to optimize performance, your therapist will adjust techniques accordingly.
    Comprehensive Assessment & Custom Plan
    Before your first session, we’ll review your lifestyle, injury history, posture, and goals. We may use a MAPS assessment (Mobility, Activation, Posture, Symmetry) to pinpoint imbalances or areas of restriction. This ensures your stretching plan is both safe and effective.

    Multi-Modal Stretching Technique

     Our therapists integrate several evidence-based techniques into your session:

    • Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF): A “contract and relax” method that uses brief resistance followed by deeper stretching to effectively increase range of motion.
    • Reciprocal Inhibition: By activating opposing muscle groups, we can naturally reduce tension in tight muscles, allowing for a more effective and comfortable stretch.
    • Pin and Stretch: A targeted technique where muscles are briefly compressed (“pinned”) and then lengthened through movement to release knots and increase tissue mobility.
    • Passive Stretching & Mobilization: Your therapist gently moves your limbs through a full range of motion to elongate muscles and improve joint flexibility—ideal for those who need support or prefer a more relaxed approach.

     

    Session Options

    30-Minute Maintenance Stretch: A focused session that targets primary muscle groups for quick relief and improved circulation—ideal for busy schedules or regular upkeep.
    60-Minute Full-Body Stretch: A comprehensive, head-to-toe session designed to address deeper issues, chronic tightness, or performance enhancement goals

    Benefits of Assisted Stretch Therapy

    • Improved Flexibility & Mobility: Go beyond what you can do on your own—stretching with a therapist allows for a deeper, more effective release.
    • Reduced Muscle & Joint Tension: Loosen tight areas, relieve discomfort, and decrease the likelihood of injury or strain.
    • Better Posture & Alignment: Regular stretching helps realign the body, especially for those with sedentary or repetitive work habits.
    • Enhanced Athletic Performance & Recovery: For athletes and active individuals, improved range of motion can translate into better strength, quicker reaction time, and faster recovery.
    • Stress Relief & Mental Clarity: Stretching increases circulation and activates the parasympathetic nervous system—supporting relaxation, reduced anxiety, and an elevated mood.
    • Greater Body Awareness: You’ll begin to understand your body’s movement patterns, limitations, and needs—empowering you with knowledge to move smarter every day.
