Anyone that has been on their fitness journey long enough has neglected stretching at some point. Either you’re young and feel like you don’t need it or you haven’t done it in so long you’re convinced it is a waste of time. Assisted stretching is a great way to get back into the practice of stretching. We can help stretch the muscles that need it specifically, increase range of motion, and improve your flexibility. This will directly help your athletic performance and help reduce your risk of injury. What athlete wouldn’t want to improve themselves along with keeping them healthy to stay in the game.
If you were to look up how much athletes like Lebron James or Russell Wilson spend on recovery in a year, you would be astounded. That’s because they know you are only as good as you recover. A dedicated assisted stretching routine is an easily accessible way for you to help your body recover to its fullest. After a tough workout your muscles can feel sore and tight which can be mitigated by an assisted stretch session. Stretching loosens up the muscles which allows the blood to rush in helping to reduce soreness and speed up recovery time. Athletes love that they can get back to their sport feeling 100% and ready to compete.
Another perk to focusing on your recovery is that when you are recovered it’s much more difficult to get injured because you are feeling 100%. The risk of strains and sprains are much higher when you aren’t fully recovered. By incorporating assisted stretching into your recovery routine, you can give yourself a leg up on the competition. Your leg up is also how we stretch your hamstring for you too. Let us help you stay ready for your sport. Our stretch therapists would love to hear you come back to them about your highlights.
