How Stretch Therapy Can Help
What is Stretch Therapy?
Stretch Therapy involves a series of targeted techniques designed to improve flexibility, enhance muscle elasticity, and reduce pain. At Apex Physical Rehab, our certified therapists tailor each session to meet your specific needs, ensuring optimal results.
Benefits of Stretch Therapy
Improved Flexibility: Regular stretching helps lengthen muscles and tendons, increasing your range of motion.
Pain Reduction: Stretching alleviates tension and reduces pressure on painful areas.
Enhanced Circulation: Improved blood flow promotes healing and reduces inflammation.
Injury Prevention: Flexible muscles are less prone to injuries, helping you maintain an active lifestyle.
Our Approach to Stretch Therapy
Our therapists use a combination of techniques, including:
Static Stretching: Holding stretches for a period to improve muscle length.
Dynamic Stretching: Controlled movements that prepare your muscles for activity
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF): Advanced techniques that involve stretching and contracting muscles to enhance flexibility.
