Stretch n' Release Technique combines the physical mechanics of gentle stretching and massage with relaxing the mind to relax the muscle tissue. With the Stretch n' Release Technique you learn that stretching and massage needs to be gentle to relax the mind because you are fighting with the fear in the mind that you could hurt yourself. Most of my clients prefer the Stretch n' Release Technique to a traditional massage for relaxation.

Most stretching and massage focus on the mechanical side of muscles and tend to lump groups of muscles together. Muscles are emotional and physical. Most stretching is held too long and the muscles are pulled too hard. Most massage is about force. Both are fighting with the muscle, not understanding that they are fighting with the fear in their brain that they could hurt themselves. You will not be strapped down to reduce the risk of injury. You will remain dressed in comfortable clothes.

Yes and that is important. Since everything you think, feel, and do tightens the muscles, learning how to use the Stretch n' Release Technique will allow to remain pain-free without having to wait for your next appointment. Daily stretching at home is recommended to maintain pain-free living. Watch your dog or cat, they stretch every day, several times a day.

No. I have taught people from 10 years old to 98 years old how to stretch to maintain mobility and flexibility. It is especially important as you age to prevent falls and other injuries due to lack of balance and strength. We lose muscle mass every year after 40 years of age which means if you do nothing your body will stiffen and become weak. That is not about age, but lifestyle.

I work on many clients with joint replacements and back surgeries. Most rehab scenarios is about getting you back to your daily activities of living meaning going to the bathroom, getting food, getting dressed. My goal is to get you back to enjoying the activities you used to do and enjoying life.
