What is Fascia Stretch Therapy?
Assisted Stretching is used to increase flexibility in the connective tissue. Flexibility is restored in the joint capsules, ligaments, tendons and in the fascial netting that is found throughout the entire body. Traction, oscillation and movement are used to alleviate pain, prevent injury and increase overall performance of the body.
Benefits of FST (Fascia Stretch Therapy):
- Improve Flexibility and Create Lasting Change
- Improve Balance
- Improve Posture
- Reeducate the Brain not just the Body
- Decrease Pain
- Reduce Stress by Calming the Nervous System
- Athletes Can Train Harder and Recover Faster
- Acquire Hope of a Pain Free Life and Better Quality of Life
For a flexibility makeover, weekly sessions for 4-6 weeks are recommended then taper off to maintenance.
Improvement will be seen with one session, but clients that get regularly stretched see greater improvements that last longer.
*Clients report feeling lighter, taller and able to move easier.
Fascia Stretch Therapy is an assisted stretching technique that is performed by a Certified Fascial Stretch Therapy Practitioner with the client on a treatment table.
Pain is never allowed and considered a negative response. The practitioner and client work together and communicate throughout the session to achieve the most productive outcome possible for the client.
Testimonials
Ashley gave an amazing massage!! Asked thorough questions beforehand to understand what my needs were, ensured I was comfortable throughout, really concentrated on those problem areas, and when I left I was able to raise my arm all the way above my head!! I haven’t been able to do that in quite a long time due to a shoulder issue!
This was one of the best massages I've ever had. My therapist was very skilled at being able to adjust the pressure by my muscles reactions. I will be back soon. So glad I found this little gem!
I highly recommend NOLA Stretch & Recovery. By far, the best massage therapy and facial stretching I’ve ever had!! Lydia and Tana are true professionals and I’m sure the other staff members are as well.
Lydia is the best!! I have been seeing her for 15 years and drive from Slidell once a month for a great massage.
I have been going to NOLA stretch & Recovery for over 2 years and it only gets better and better each time I go. The team there knows my muscle issues and when I walk out I feel like a champ.
