It is the answer to feeling younger longer, being more functional, having less pain, and being healthier.
Fact: Those who stretch for 15 to 20 minutes a day have less pain, manage stress better and see doctors less often.
Benefits of Stretching
- Relaxation
- Improved circulation
- Improved flexibility
- Less pain and stiffness
- Fewer injuries
- Easier movements
- Adds years to life and life to years
- Stretching in a warm shower every morning has proven to be much easier to follow than those who try to build in time in their busy work day. Repetition is the key.
- Stretching DAILY is much more effective than even 1-2 longer stretching sessions per week.
- Full-body stretching is much more successful than isolated area stretches.
- Holding a stretch until a stretch reflex releases or until no stretch is felt is the best way to determine the time one holds a stretch - listen to your body.
- Rushing through a stretch only causes injuries.
- Anxiety, fear, frustration, and pain is the enemy, so calming the mind, breathing deeply and deliberately while meditating, smiling, and using visualization works wonders.
