Get answers to common questions about Assisted Stretching.

Yes. Our therapists adapt stretches to each client's ability and medical history. We perform a brief intake, modify techniques for sensitivity or restrictions, and avoid painful forcing. Always inform your therapist about injuries, surgeries, or medications before sessions.

Most sessions run 30 to 60 minutes depending on goals and areas treated. New clients often include a short assessment and plan, while targeted follow-ups can be shorter. We’ll recommend frequency based on progress and activity level.

Mild soreness is possible, especially after deeper or unfamiliar stretches, similar to post-exercise sensations. Soreness typically fades within 24-48 hours. Communicate pressure and discomfort levels during the session to minimize after-effects; therapists will adjust intensity accordingly.

Wear comfortable, breathable clothing that allows a full range of movement—athletic shorts or leggings and a loose top are ideal. Avoid restrictive zippers or heavy jewelry. Hydrate beforehand and arrive slightly warmed up if possible for better results.

A trained therapist applies precise pressure, timing, and joint positioning to safely deepen stretches and correct imbalances. This guidance reduces risk of overstretching, improves efficiency, and targets hard-to-reach areas more effectively than solo stretching.

Frequency depends on goals: athletes or rehab clients may benefit from 2-3 sessions weekly initially, then taper to weekly or biweekly maintenance. For general flexibility, one session weekly or biweekly often yields steady improvement.
