ASSISTED STRETCH COACHING WITH KATIE AROSTEGUI

Assisted stretching is a technique that involves having one person guide another person through a series of static stretches to increase mobility, strength and flexibility of one or a group of muscles. Assisted stretching not only keeps the body in motion longer than traditional stretching. It also increases blood circulation, improves mobility (spine and joints), strengthens muscles (and bones) and heightens the state of overall well-being.

For the last 30-40 years, assisted stretch practitioners have been primarily found in physical therapy offices, hospitals or athletic sport teams. Over the last decade, fitness boutiques solely dedicated to assisted stretching have emerged and are quickly becoming mainstream in the U.S. Why? Simply, because it works.

Stretch therapy is like massage therapy in the sense that it involves physical touch and is very relaxing. However, unlike massage, with proper maintenance (i.e. homework stretches) the benefits of an assisted stretch can last much longer.
