What Is Active Isolated Stretching?

AIS, just one type of stretch technique you'll learn in this workshop, is a process by which each muscle is gently stretched with the aid of a therapist or a rope. By relaxing the muscle to be stretched and working its opposing muscle for only 2.5 seconds at a time, improved range of motion occurs without the risk of muscle injury.

Why Choose Stretching Interventions? With proper stretching your clients will notice:

•  Improved circulation

•  Pain reduction

•  Improved respiratory & neurological system functioning

•  Increased oxygenation of the body

•  Lymph drainage and elimination of waste products in the body, including lactic acid

•  Return to normal range of motion for improved joint and muscle health

•  Realignment of the joints and spine

•  Relaxation

•  …and safe stretching has been proven to provide lasting effects.
