What is Assisted Stretch?
When you come to Palm Beach Health Center for a stretch, you’ll experience what’s known as an assisted stretch. While you lay back, our team will manipulate your body into safe positions for a myofascial stretch.
What is a Myofascial Stretch?
Myofascial stretching doesn’t target a single muscle group. Rather it addresses a greater range of muscle tissue to go deeper into the joint itself and release tension. Ultimately, this improves the quality of movement of the soft tissue in relation to the entire muscle group.
What are the Benefits of Stretching?
The goal of stretching isn’t being able to touch your toes. Stretching properly comes with an array of benefits, including:
- Preventing injury
- Enhancing athletic performance
- Improving muscle recovery ability
- Better overall joint health

Is Stretching Painful?
We don't stretch to pain. We stretch to where it's uncomfortable to a degree. There’s a sweet spot between pushing your body to a safe limit where you’ll experience the most benefit. However, you are always in control of the stretch and should speak up about discomfort at any time.
