Lower back pain can be debilitating. Whether it is caused by an injured disc, sciatica, or muscle strain, finding relief is crucial for restoring mobility and improving quality of life. One of the non-invasive techniques we apply at ADAPT Wellness to help patients with lower back pain is called lumbar traction-a therapy designed to take the pressure off the spine and encourage healing.

What Is Stretching Therapy?

Stretching therapy is a personalized approach that combines assisted stretching, manual therapy, and therapeutic movement to support flexibility, posture, and nervous system regulation.

Unlike generic group classes or static stretching, our one-on-one sessions are clinically guided and adapted to your body’s specific needs.

Techniques We Use Include:

  • Assisted stretching
  • Manual therapy and myofascial release
  • Breathwork and nervous system regulation
  • Neuromuscular re-education
  • Postural integration

Who Is Stretching Therapy For?

This therapy is ideal for people experiencing:

  • Chronic muscle tightness (hips, neck, shoulders, hamstrings)
  • Poor posture or tension from prolonged sitting
  • Limited range of motion
  • Injury or post-surgical recovery
  • Pelvic floor or back tension
  • High levels of daily stress, burnout, or sleep issues

Whether you’re an athlete or simply feeling stuck in your body, we’ll tailor a session that works with your body—not against it.

What Makes Our Sessions Unique?

Led by Dr. Ali, a licensed physical therapist with advanced training in Medical Therapeutic Yoga and manual therapy, each session is rooted in science and whole-body awareness.

Your Session May Include:

  • Passive and active stretching
  • Breath-guided movement and mobility
  • Postural alignment techniques
  • Nervous system regulation strategies
  • Education on body awareness and movement patterns

This is more than stretching—it’s therapeutic, mindful movement designed to support your well-being inside and out.

Stretching Therapy – FAQ

Do I need to be flexible to start stretching sessions?

Not at all. These sessions are designed for all flexibility levels and customized to your current mobility.

Is stretching therapy the same as assisted yoga?

Not exactly. Stretching therapy focuses specifically on muscle and joint mobility. It may include assisted stretching and postural alignment, but it is clinically guided and based on physical therapy principles.

What should I wear to a stretching session?

Comfortable, stretchy clothing that allows freedom of movement. Athletic wear or yoga clothes work well.

Can stretching help with chronic pain?

Yes! Many clients with back pain, hip tightness, or postural tension experience significant relief with regular stretching therapy.
