What is a full body stretch, and how does it contribute to my overall well-being?
A full body stretch is a comprehensive stretching routine that engages all major muscle groups, thereby enhancing flexibility, promoting muscle balance, and boosting relaxation. It is a crucial part of a healthy lifestyle due to the myriad benefits that it provides. Stretching your body supports your overall well-being by improving flexibility, relieving muscle tension, enhancing your posture, and increasing blood circulation to the muscles. Additionally, stretching is great for stress relief due to the calming effect that it has on both the mind and body.
What is the difference between passive stretching and active stretching?
Passive assisted stretching involves the help of a technician in gently positioning your body into stretches while you stay relaxed. This method allows for deeper stretches to increase flexibility and improve range of motion with minimal effort from you. In contrast to passive stretching, active stretching requires you to actively engage your muscles without any external force, using your own strength to achieve the stretch.
What are the advantages of assisted stretching?
Assisted stretching offers several benefits over stretching on your own. It allows for deeper stretches and more precise targeting of specific muscle groups, leading to more effective results. Additionally, assisted stretching requires less physical effort, making it easier to perform, especially if you are dealing with fatigue, injury, or limited mobility. In assisted stretching, your technician will provide valuable feedback and support to ensure proper form and technique, reducing the risk of injury.
Are assisted stretch sessions customized to my specific needs, or are they one-size-fits-all?
Our stretch sessions are tailored to fit your individual needs. Our Flexologists® will evaluate your flexibility, posture, and any specific concerns prior to creating a tailored stretching routine. We believe in addressing your unique requirements rather than providing a one-size-fits-all approach.
How frequently should I schedule full body stretch sessions to achieve the best results?
For optimal results, we recommend scheduling full body stretch sessions two to three times per week. That said, the ideal frequency may vary based on your individual goals and needs. Our experienced Flexologists® can help you determine the best schedule for your needs during your initial assessment.
