   Assisted Stretching & Flexibility Programs      

 

Flexibility is one of the most important aspects of any fitness program.  Good flexibility can improve performance, enhance comfort during daily activities and helps to prevent injury.  However, stretching is often the last thing done or the first thing skipped when exercising.  Let the experts at Santosha Yoga Center set you up on a flexibility path to success.

Assisted stretching is a cross between massage and personal training.  Matthew Imhof, C.P.T. and co-owner of Santosha Yoga Center, will instruct you on proper stretching form and manually assist you utilizing a variety of stretching techniques designed to help you reach your potential.    

Types of Assisted Stretching

  • Isometric Stretching - Isometric stretching is a type of static stretching (meaning it does not use motion) which involves the resistance of muscle groups through isometric contractions (tensing) of the stretched muscles. The use of isometric stretching is one of the fastest ways to develop increased static-passive flexibility
  • Passive Stretching - Passive stretching is also referred to as relaxed stretching, and as static-passive stretching. A passive stretch is one where you assume a position and hold it with some other part of your body, or with the assistance of a partner or some other apparatus.
  • PNF Stretching - PNF is an acronym for proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation. It is not really a type of stretching but is a technique of combining passive stretching and isometric stretching in order to achieve maximum static flexibility.

A typical stretching session will utilize a variety of techniques to help you reach your goals.  Sessions might take place on the floor or often times will take place on a massage table to allow for better client comfort and hands on assistance of the instructor.

Assisted stretching is often utilized by athletes to improve performance and physical therapists to assist patients recovering from injuries.  Studies have shown that clients who utilize the assistance of a flexibility expert show significant improvement over those who choose to stretch themselves.
