Any time is a good time to get stretched! Whether pre- or post- workout, or whether you just need some time to focus on yourself and recover. If you are feeling stiff it’s a great way to get yourself moving again. A pre-workout stretch warms up your muscles, can reduce risk of injury and boost your performance. A post-workout stretch speeds recovery by flushing out metabolic waste, increasing blood flow and lengthening muscles that have just been contracted. On top of it all it’s super relaxing. WHAT TO GET STRETCHED We can take you through a series of stretches that focus on the entirety of the body. This is a great way of getting started. As you work with your Stretchologist together you will be able to identify areas that need extra attention and show them the love the deserve. Alternatively if there is something you already know needs some attention just let us know! WHAT SHOULD I WEAR? Anything you are comfortable in, and isn’t too restrictive. What you would wear to work out in is a simple answer. Your Stretchologist will move you into some open positions so please ensure you are concealed. You won’t get sweaty or need to shower. We do ask that our clients wear a fresh pair of socks, which we also have available for purchase in the studio.

In our recovery programs, we address deeper needs for life-skills and job-skills training, and addiction recovery.
