IMPROVE YOUR MOBILITY & REDUCE TIGHTNESS

ASSISTED STRETCH THERAPY

Assisted Stretch Therapy is a personalised, hands-on approach to improving flexibility, mobility, and overall physical wellness. Designed for individuals of all ages and fitness levels, this therapy involves working with a trained physiotherapist who guides and assists you through a series of gentle, targeted stretches. By helping muscles reach their full range of motion, assisted stretching alleviates tension, enhances joint mobility, and reduces the risk of injury. With each session tailored to your unique needs, you’ll experience immediate relief and longer-lasting results in reducing pain and stiffness.

Beyond flexibility, Assisted Stretch Therapy offers a variety of health benefits. By increasing blood flow to muscles and connective tissues, it promotes quicker recovery, boosts circulation, and improves posture. Whether you're an athlete looking to enhance performance, someone recovering from an injury, or simply seeking a way to feel more agile and relaxed, assisted stretching can be transformative. Step into a new level of wellness with a customized stretch therapy session designed to help you move freely and feel your best.

Assited stretch therapy includes:

1. In-Depth Pre-Assessment Screening & History
On completion of your booking, you will receive an email to complete our pre-assessment questionnaire, important for us to establish the specific goals you have and the best therapy routine to utilise.

2. Initial Testing Consultation
During your first consultation, we complete objective testing to gain data-driven insights into your functional mobility and range of motion. We then utilise this data, along with the information provided from your pre-screening questionnaire, to tailor assisted stretching specific for your needs and goals.

3. Assisted Stretch Therapy
Your therapist will then guide you through a series of controlled stretches, targeting specific muscles, joints and connective tissues. Use a hands-on approach, our therapists gently assist you through techniques such as proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) to reach deeper and more effective stretches to improve mobility.

4. Individualised Mobility Program
A specific, individualised mobility program is then designed and implemented for you to complete as part of your routine to keep on top of your mobility and improve the specific areas of range identified. Using our custom app, videos and images with text descriptions guide you through your routine, and allows therapists to track progression.

5. Support & Guidance
Throughout the process, continuous support and guidance is provided to ensure you are comfortable throughout. Therapists are able to support you with any questions and help guide you to achieve your mobility and functional goals!

Assisted stretch therapy is suitable for a wide range of individuals:

  • Athletes
  • Those with previous injuries struggling to regain range of motion
  • Health conscious individuals
  • Those looking to improve mobility and function through the lifespan
  • Anyone looking to gain data-driven insights into their mobility and function

Choosing ASSISTED STRETCH THERAPY AT GymTherapy means you will:

  • Understand how mobility and range of motion effects your function and strength
  • Use the data to enhance and optimise your function/training specific for you and your goals.
  • Enhance your mobility
  • Personalised mobility and functional programming
  • Guidance on factors contributing to your mobility and overall function

You will learn about several aspects of your cardiovascular fitness, including:

  • VO2 Max: Is a measure of the body's capacity to maximally uptake oxygen from the environment and use it in skeletal muscle during intense full-body exercise (maximal oxygen consumption). It is considered the gold-standard measurement for cardiorespiratory fitness
  • Training Zones: Training zones are calculated based on the relationship between your VO2 Max, heart rate, and mechanical output (power/pace). By completing VO2 Max testing, it allows for accurate prescription of these training zones, optimising training and performance.
  • Pulmonary Diffusion Capacity: One of the factors that determines VO2 Max, it describes the ability of the lungs to uptake large volumes of air ad exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide through the alveoli.
  • Cardiac Output: The ability of the heart to pump large volumes of oxygenated blood.
  • Oxygen Carrying Capacity of the Blood: The amount of oxygen that can be transported to the muscle, important for VO2 Max.
  • Skeletal Muscle Oxygen Extraction: Describes the muscle's ability to uptake and utilise oxygen for function.
  • Ventilatory Thresholds: Describes the relationship between physical exertion and ventilation. During VO2 Max testing, two key ventilatory thresholds (VT1 & VT2) are identified, which allows for specific training recommendations that improve these values moving forward.
