Stretching Techniques
Stretching is an essential part of recovery and vitally important to ensure you live a injury free lifestyle. Inadequate flexibility can cause imbalances in musculature which can result in tendon or muscle strains, mechanical malfunctions, impaired posture and/or chronic pain.
As part of our therapeutic exercise prescription, we implement different types of stretching techniques which are tailored to your specific needs in order to address your highlighted pathology. These may include a combination of static, active, dynamic and neuromuscular facilitation techniques (PNF).
Our aim is to empower you to make positive changes in your life to rid yourself of current and future injuries. We look to educate you, the patient, with the following self-mobilisations tools and stretching techniques:
- Foam Roller
- Mechanical Massage Gun
- Resistance Bands
- Trigger Point Muscle Release with Massage Ball
In addition to traditional rehabilitation services, Releaf Physio also offers Yoga!
We have twice weekly classes available or if you are new to yoga you can book 1-1 session. This is a great way to understand your body more and increase mobility in problem areas under the watchful eye of our experienced yoga instructor.
