Chiropractors vs Assisted Stretching: Which is Better For You?
When it comes to managing pain and correcting posture, many people quickly turn to chiropractic care, blissfully unaware that other options exist. Enter Assisted Stretching, the underdog of pain management that’s been making waves and challenging the status quo.
How do you decide which one is right for you? This blog will break down the key considerations for each modality.
When Should I Consider Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic care specializes in spinal adjustments to improve alignment of your joints. If you require structural correction either from a chronic condition or an acute injury, chiropractic care may be needed.
Like any profession, there are good and bad ones out there and serious implications with choosing the wrong chiropractor… So do your homework and find a good one!
When Should I Consider Assisted Stretching?
Assisted Stretching should be heavily considered if your issues are related to muscular imbalances or soft tissue restrictions.
At Stretch U, we specialize in Myofascial Release and PNF Stretching to restore healthy connective tissue and muscle tension.
If your body continues to fall “out of alignment” it may be due to an underlying muscular imbalance that needs to be resolved.
Can Chiropractic Care and Assisted Stretching Compliment Each Other?
Absolutely! Chiropractic care can help provide immediate relief by adjusting structures to their natural position while Assisted Stretching will help to correct muscular imbalances and fix the root cause of the problem!

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.
