Muscular relaxation and stretching

How does it work?

Muscle relaxation and stretching are used in increased muscle tone and shortened muscles.

In such muscle conditions, the following is tested:

• pain;
• limited volume of movement;
• loss of muscle strength;

Stretching exercises are traditionally included as part of a training and recovery program. Evidence shows that physical performance in terms of maximum strength, number of repetitions and total volume is affected by stretching.

What are the main benefits?

When we stretch and hold the muscle in this state, we act on the receptors for length in it. After a while, adaptations begin to occur in this muscle, changing its tone. Normalization of muscle tone improves:

• elasticity;
• force;
• coordination;
• painless movement;
• neuromuscular regulation is optimized;
• muscle dysfunction is removed;

The techniques we use are:

• post isometric relaxation;
• reciprocal inhibition;
• post-easing stretching;

After the treatment you will feel lightness and mobility in your muscles.
