Athletics
Effective Athletes have joint range of motion w/ strength and control throughout. Active Isolated Stretching & Strengthening, The Mattes Method, can help you create and maintain your optimal ROM.
AIS honors your body's natural reflexes - You want your reflexes to be to be responsive, yes?
Our goal at Stretching by the Bay is to help each athlete achieve their personal best
by freeing up the range of motion w/ hands-on Assisted Active Isolated Stretching
& teaching each athlete how to maintain ROM by performing the stretches on themself.
I am one of Mattes top teachers/trainers/therapists for this revolutionary work. With 25 years as a trainer,
and 14 years specifically with AIS, The Mattes Method, I am highly qualified to help you achieve your ROM goals
freeing you to achieve your athletic goals!
Field & court sports: Are your tight hips interfering with your responsiveness? or worse - setting you up for sprained ankles and strained backs?
Golfers - you too w/ the tight hips causing back (and shoulder issues!)
Runners: Do you have TFL-ITB issues? Do you sense that you could run faster with more freedom across the front of your hips, and in your quads & hamstrings?
How are your calves? Do you have great elasticity in your plantar fascia? or are you plagued with plantar fascitis or heel spurs?
would you like more "spring"?
Swimmers - Are your shoulders open? hips? torso?
Dancers - you know how precious every degree of ROM is!
