Research has shown that stretching can help improve flexibility, and as a result, the range of motion of your joints.
Better flexibility may:
Improve your performance in physical activities.
Decrease your risk of injuries.
Help your joints move through their full range of motion.
Increase muscle blood flow.
Enable your muscles to work most effectively.
Improve your ability to do daily activities.
Before you plunge into stretching, make sure you do it safely and effectively.
While you can stretch anytime, anywhere, proper technique is key.
Strive for symmetry, focus on major muscle groups, don't bounce, hold your stretch, don't aim for pain.
Most importantly, keep up with your stretching routine and contact me through this website to get started on your stretching routine!
