What is assisted stretching?

Assisted stretching is a personalized service where a certified trainer helps you achieve deeper, more effective stretches than you can accomplish on your own. Our trainers use proven techniques to safely guide your muscles through their full range of motion.

How is assisted stretching different from regular stretching?

Unlike solo stretching, assisted stretching allows you to fully relax while a trained professional applies gentle pressure and positioning. This leads to deeper stretches, better results, and reduced risk of injury compared to stretching alone.

Who can benefit from assisted stretching services?

Anyone can benefit! We work with office workers with tight shoulders, athletes seeking performance enhancement, seniors wanting to maintain mobility, people recovering from injuries, and anyone experiencing muscle tension or stiffness.

Is assisted stretching safe?

Yes, when performed by certified professionals. Our trainers are trained in proper techniques, anatomy, and safety protocols. We always work within your comfort level and adjust intensity based on your needs and limitations.

How long is a typical assisted stretching session?

Sessions typically range from 30-60 minutes. First-time clients often start with 30-45 minutes to assess their needs and comfort level, while regular clients may prefer longer 60-minute sessions for full-body work.

How often should I get assisted stretching?

Most clients see optimal results with 1-2 sessions per week. However, frequency depends on your goals, activity level, and current flexibility. We'll create a personalized schedule during your consultation.

What should I wear to an assisted stretching session?

Wear comfortable, flexible clothing that allows for movement - athletic wear, yoga clothes, or loose-fitting garments work best. Avoid jeans or restrictive clothing that might limit your range of motion.

Will assisted stretching hurt?

You should never feel pain during assisted stretching. You may experience mild discomfort as muscles lengthen, but our trainers constantly communicate with you to ensure you remain comfortable and safe throughout the session.

Can assisted stretching help with injury recovery?

While we're not medical professionals, assisted stretching can complement your recovery program by improving flexibility, reducing muscle tension, and promoting better movement patterns. Always consult your doctor or physical therapist first.

Do you provide assisted stretching in my home?

Yes! We bring all necessary equipment and provide professional assisted stretching services in the comfort of your Manhattan home, office, or preferred location.

What results can I expect from regular assisted stretching?

Regular clients typically experience improved flexibility, reduced muscle tension, better posture, enhanced athletic performance, decreased stiffness, improved circulation, and better overall mobility within 2-4 weeks of consistent sessions.

Do I need to be flexible to start assisted stretching?

Not at all! Assisted stretching is perfect for people with limited flexibility. We meet you exactly where you are and gradually improve your range of motion over time. Many of our clients start with us because they feel 'too tight' to stretch effectively on their own.

Can assisted stretching replace my workout routine?

Assisted stretching complements but doesn't replace exercise. It enhances your workout results by improving flexibility, preventing injury, and helping muscles recover faster. We recommend combining it with your existing fitness routine.

What's the difference between assisted stretching and massage?

While massage focuses on muscle tissue manipulation and relaxation, assisted stretching specifically targets improving range of motion and flexibility. Both are beneficial, and many clients enjoy combining both services.

How much do assisted stretching services cost?

Our assisted stretching sessions range from $75-$150 depending on session length and location. We offer package deals for regular clients and can discuss pricing options during your consultation.

Do you work with people who have medical conditions?

We can work with many conditions, but always require medical clearance first. We've successfully helped clients with arthritis, chronic pain, post-surgical recovery, and other conditions - always in coordination with their healthcare team.

What areas of the body do you focus on?

We provide full-body assisted stretching or can focus on specific problem areas like tight hips, shoulders, hamstrings, or back muscles. Each session is customized to your individual needs and goals.

How do I prepare for my first assisted stretching session?

Stay hydrated, avoid heavy meals 2 hours before your session, arrive in comfortable clothing, and come with any questions or concerns about specific tight areas you'd like us to address.

Flexibility you can actually feel

Assisted stretching is hands-on. Your trainer moves each joint through its full range and holds you in positions you can’t reach on your own, so muscles release, circulation improves, and your body starts moving the way it’s meant to.

It’s the recovery work most people skip. Done consistently, it’s the difference between feeling tight and feeling capable.

What it does for you

Four things clients notice first, often within the first few sessions.

Greater range of motion

Reach, bend, and move without the pull. Assisted stretching gives back mobility that sitting, training, and age quietly take away.

Faster recovery

Release tight muscles and boost circulation so you bounce back quicker between workouts and long days.

Fewer aches & injuries

Better-moving joints and balanced muscles mean less strain, and less of the nagging pain that sidelines you.

Real relaxation

Slow, guided stretching calms the nervous system. Most clients leave a session looser, lighter, and noticeably less tense.

Who it’s for

“Amazing trainers! I had torn my ACL last year and needed someone to help me gain my strength back in my legs and Miriam was great! She tried so many different exercises to see how she could help me strengthen without hurting or putting pressure in my knee! She helped me get motivated and pushed me but moved at a pace I was comfortable with! I would definitely recommended this!”

Isn’t this what my trainer already does?

No. The stretching at the end of a session is you stretching, with your trainer coaching. Assisted stretching is the reverse: you do nothing, and the trainer works on you. They take the joint through range you cannot reach on your own, hold it there, and work the tissue around it. Five minutes of cool-down at the end of a workout is not the same thing, and it is not meant to be.

Two ways to book it

Stretching on its own, or added to the training you already do. Same trainer, same hands-on work, different amount of time.

On its own

50 minutes in your home, nothing but stretch work. A certified Type A trainer moves you through full range, holds the positions you cannot hold yourself, and works the areas that have quietly stopped moving. Best if you are not currently training with us, or you want the stretch work kept separate from your workouts.
