Benefits of Assisted Stretching
At Stretch U, we believe movement is freedom. Our unique, one-on-one assisted stretching programs are designed to help you unlock your body's full potential. By combining proven PNF techniques with targeted Myofascial Release, we provide a comprehensive solution to increase mobility, manage pain, and improve your overall quality of life.
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) is the industry's most effective form of flexibility training. When we combine PNF with advanced Myofascial Release, we create a powerful synergy that quickly and safely addresses your mobility limitations, helping you move more freely.
Pain is often the consequence of muscular imbalances, compressed nerves, or poor circulation. Our assisted stretching protocol is designed to resolve all three. We help clients every day with conditions like chronic back pain, sciatica, and plantar fasciitis.
Imagine moving without restriction and recovering faster after hard training sessions. Whether you're a professional athlete or a weekend warrior, our full body assisted stretching is a game-changer for unlocking peak performance and preventing injuries.
Physical and emotional stress are often directly correlated and cause our muscles to tighten up. Stretching with intentional focus on your breath can help to relieve this stress and improve your mood.
PNF Stretching is the most effective form of flexibility training. Add Myofascial Release to the equation and you have discovered the fastest way to address your mobility limitations.
There is nothing quite like the euphoric feeling of a full body assisted stretching session. The increase in circulation and detailed attention given to long-neglected muscles is a one-of-a-kind experience that leaves you feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and renewed.
Is Full Body Assisted Stretching Right for You?
While professional athletes see incredible results, our services are designed for everyone seeking a better quality of life. Our one-on-one assisted stretching is particularly beneficial whether you're an office professional experiencing tightness from prolonged sitting, a weekend warrior or athlete looking to boost performance and prevent injury, an active adult wanting to maintain mobility for years to come, or anyone struggling with chronic stiffness or pain who simply wants to move and feel better every single day.
I’ve been to Stretch U many times and been treated by many different employees. Whoever you get, they are all great at the stretches and personalizing them to your needs. Most of all, they are all friendly and professional Highly recommend! Won’t be going anywhere else.

I'm so glad I finally tried Stretch U! I am a professional Massage Therapist, plus I lift heavy weights with a trainer 2 hours a week. I have had trouble finding a massage therapist skilled and knowledgable enough to give me the deep work that I need. So I tried Stretch U, and it has been a great addition to my self care routine. Since I added stretching sessions I am less sore from my workouts and work, and I'm sleeping better!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Stretch U!!!! I’ve been getting stretched for about two months now and my flexibility is almost 100% restored!!! The stretch members know their stuff! Although, I’ve been partial to Cameron; I believe ALL of the stretch staff members are equally awesome!

Very fun environment. Friendly staff. I cannot tell you how much it helps physcially and mentally. It leaves your stress behind. Im also a golfer and it has helped tremendously wuth being more limber and has increased swing speed. Definitely give this a try.

The staff are very professional and excellent at what they do. Stretch U is much better than a sports massage or Physcial Therapy session. Stretch U heals the body better and helps those deteriorating joints. Kyle was our technician and does an excellent job healing our bodies! Try it, you'll appreciate it.

After having two stretch sessions with Jordan, I feel so much better. I was not sure what to expect as I had never been to a “stretch” session before. Jordan made me feel very welcome and comfortable. He is very professional. A great technique with much improvement after the very first stretch.

Can Stretch U Help My...?
Yes! Back pain is often a consequence of tight hips and hamstrings pulling the pelvis out of alignment. We use specific stretches for these areas, plus a targeted Myofascial Release technique that can help you find the relief you've been looking for.
Yes! Stretching is a highly effective treatment for sciatica, which is frequently caused by a tight piriformis muscle compressing the sciatic nerve. We address the piriformis, hamstrings, and the nerve path directly with both Myofascial Release and PNF stretching.
Yes! Neck pain is often the byproduct of a muscular imbalance in the shoulders and rotator cuff. We have specific stretches for these areas, and our Myofascial Release technique will help clear mobility restrictions in the major muscles of your upper back to provide lasting relief.
Plantar Fasciitis?
Yes! This painful condition often stems from dysfunction in the foot and ankle. We specifically target your feet, shins, and calves with both Myofascial Release and PNF stretching to restore proper function and reduce strain on the plantar fascia.
