FASCIA STRETCHING THERAPY
Body by Choice Training | Grand Rapids, MI
The three-dimensional web of connective tissue that permeates and connects all of your body’s structures together — and is the most important factor affecting your flexibility — is called fascia. More about the fascial system >
If you begin to lose flexibility your joints will deteriorate, your posture worsens, your physical appearance changes, muscular imbalances develop and you become more prone to pain and injury from simple actions. Our bodies lose flexibility at an average rate of one percent per year!
Daily aches, pains and fatigue that seem to have no obvious cause could be the result of prolonged and accumulated restrictions in your fascial system.
Unlike traditional stretching, fascial stretching therapy can dramatically improve your flexibility by decompressing your joints and unwinding the connective tissue throughout your body.*
Lack of flexibility and general tightness can cause aches and pains and can significantly affect your health and longevity.
Fascia, when tight, can restrict range of motion and impair quality of movement.
The fascial stretching therapy program at Body By Choice can enhance recovery after hard workouts and improve performance by optimizing soft tissue mobility and increasing range of motion.
When you are ready to improve your flexibility with fascial stretching therapy, or to set up your free fitness consultation with one of our personal trainers, please contact us here or call 616.259.9064.
