The more mobility we have the more capacity we have to move freely.

(our gateway)
Breath is necessary task we do over 20,000 times per day. when done wrong, it can wreak havoc on your entire system. Diaphragmatic breathing is our goal; it gives you access to your fullest potential. This way, you are not leaving any performance on the table.
(does it move?)
joints need to move through their intended ranges of motion. the more mobility we have, the more capacity we have to move freely. Note: Mobility alone is not sufficient to change underlying movement dysfunction.
(does it stay?)
once we gain the range, it's time to train the range. Utilizing both passive and active stabilizers, we train your body to control different postures and positions safely and effectively. This is how your body "locks-in" the new range and function . And how your body learns new movement patterns.
(can you do it when it matters?)
Performance is the phase where most people want to live, either playing the sport of their choice or enjoying their favorite activity. This is the cumulation of all your previous training, the pinnacle of your journey.
(how fast?)
There are times in life when speed and explosiveness are needed. Underdeveloped power can limit the activities or sports you can participate in. Train for more than you need so you can achieve more than you want.
(how much?)
The ability to overcome resistance is necessary for long-term success. Strength is not developed overnight; however, it requires time and effort.
(how long?)
Endurance refers to the ability to sustain a prolonged stressful effort or activity, including muscular, postural and mental stamina. Some excel here, and others don't, but increasing your endurance is a vital step before moving onto functional strength training.
(are we ready for more?)
Recovery determines how prepared your body is to perform optimally. This includes sleep, hydration, nutrition, as well as active and passive methods of nervous system down-regulation, aka rest and restoration.

I didn't know what I was missing until I started working with Stretch Affect. Working with Stretch Affect has 100% changed my life and given me back confidence in myself.
Instead of looking at 1 part of the body they, as a team, looked at my whole body and noticed imbalances that needed corrected. We didn't just focus on the areas of pain but on the whole body as it's all interconnected. This is where they differ the most from traditional PT.
I came to them with a biomechanical issue no other practitioner has been able to figure out and these guys were able to uncover the root cause of my problem within minutes.
Stretch Affect has an amazing, professional staff and outstanding facilities. Using manual therapy, active release, and targeted strengthening I saw results almost immediately and continue to see improvements.
If you want a comprehensive, full body functional assessment of your condition that can't be resolved by Chiropractic, Massage or Physical Therapy, these are the guys to see.
They have truly changed the trajectory and quality of my life.
