ACTIVE ISOLATED STRETCHING: THE SPA METHOD
“Human movement is more enjoyable when the body is flexible and capable of performing without restriction.”1
“Specific movement also helps relieve symptoms of stress. Stress touches all of our lives. Gentle stretching movements can invigorate the circulatory, respiratory and neuromuscular systems.”2
“Flexibility and proper stretching have played a very important role for enhancing performance, rehabilitation and wellness.”3
