What Is Active Isolated Stretching?
AIS, just one type of stretch technique you'll learn in this workshop, is a process by which each muscle is gently stretched with the aid of a therapist or a rope. By relaxing the muscle to be stretched and working its opposing muscle for only 2.5 seconds at a time, improved range of motion occurs without the risk of muscle injury.
Why Choose Stretching Interventions? With proper stretching your clients will notice:
Improved circulation
Pain reduction
Improved respiratory & neurological system functioning
Increased oxygenation of the body
Lymph drainage and elimination of waste products in the body, including lactic acid
Return to normal range of motion for improved joint and muscle health
Realignment of the joints and spine
Relaxation
…and safe stretching has been proven to provide lasting effects.
