Fascial Stretch Therapy(TM) is a one-on-one, table based form of assisted stretching.  FST focuses on the client's joints, individual muscles, muscle groups, and fascia surrounding those areas.  

Fascial Stretch Therapy uses traction, oscillation, circumduction to help open up the joints.  This, coupled with the stretching, increases range-of-motion and flexibility.  These techniques also help to calm the nervous system allowing a deeper, gentler stretch while also letting the client relax and pay attention to how their body feels.  This deep level of relaxation lets the client move better and feel looser IMMEDIATELY after getting off of the therapy table.  FST has a number of benefits, some of which are:

• decreased pain caused by tension and stress
• increased flexibility, mobility and range-of-motion
• increased strength and power
• improved balance and coordination
• improved posture and appearance

FST can be used as a stand alone therapy or can be used in combination with massage therapy or cupping therapy.  Sessions can focus on the lower body or upper body and neck.  If you have questions about Fascial Stretch Therapy and whether it would be a good fit with your treatment plan, please contact us and we will answer any questions you may have!

We at Mobile Performance Therapy have seen such an improvement in clients that incorporate stretching into their sessions, we are happy to gift new clients with a free 15 minute stretch "demo" as an add-on to any massage session.  We can talk about the therapy and say how wonderful it is but know that until you try it, you won't know the amazing benefits of Fascial Stretch Therapy!
