Do you suffer from daily aches and pains? Perhaps you suffer from back pain known as sciatica or maybe you’ve just never been flexible. Although medical professionals tell you stretching will help prevent injury and help to promote a healthy lifestyle, you still do not do it. It could be that you do not know how, or it could be that it is painful. Regardless of the reasoning, our goal at Stretch Zone Longbow is to make stretching easy, enjoyable, goal-oriented, and relaxing.
Sciatica pain is a very common complaint caused by irritation, inflammation, or pinching of a nerve in the lower back. If you have sciatica, you experience mild to severe pain anywhere along the path of the sciatic nerve. That means anywhere from the lower back, through the hips, buttocks, and down the legs. It may cause muscle weakness in the leg or foot, numbness in the leg, and a tingling sensation in the legs, foot, or toes.
Sciatic pain can be treated by performing gentle stretches. Here at Stretch Zone Longbow, we have practitioner-assisted stretches that are geared toward those dealing with back pain and exact stretches that are for those who suffer from sciatica.
Sciatica can be preventable by maintaining good posture, not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and choosing physical activities that are least likely to hurt your back.
Your first session is complimentary at Stretch Zone Longbow. During the initial session, one of our practitioners — who are credentialed through the national certification board for therapeutic massage and bodywork — consults you and your medical history, assesses your natural range of motion, then diagnoses you on how often we should stretch you based on goals and medical history.
From there we create a three-month personalized program that will target tense areas, work on your health goals, and work together to create new muscle memory so you become more flexible and pain-free.
Stretching is incredibly important to one’s life. Stretching promotes flexibility and helps your joints maintain a healthy range of motion.
