Course Description:
In this class, we will use various stretching techniques, massage tools, and specialized equipment to teach you the skills needed to offer your clients Isolated Stretch Therapy with specific knowledge on muscle groups and body parts.
You will learn to become comfortable with a variety of tools and practices to include PNF techniques,theraband or green strap loops, and foam rollers.
In order to reach that goal, the therapist should have a good understanding of the basic anatomy and kinesiology of the body and its movements. Stretching uses the mechanism, length-tension relationship, that creates either an overactive or underactive pull on our joints over time. This chronic tension on joints causes malalignment and eventually severe pain in common areas such as neck, shoulders, hamstrings and back to name a few. Chronic injuries or imbalances such as hip tightness, hamstrings strains, lack of balance in ankles, low back pain, Achilles tendonitis, Golfer‘s elbow, Tennis elbow and much more.
