FASCIAL STRETCH THERAPY
Lisa Adams now has her LEVEL 2 FST Certification!!
"If you haven't tried Fascial Stretch Therapy you NEED to. This is an amazingly effective form of stretching that will literally change the way you lift, move and feel. I've done sessions whenever I possibly can and I feel absolutely GREAT afterwards! I can lift more, in a greater range of motion, and it alleviates so much hip & shoulder pain! Give it a try, you will not regret it - trust me, I've been trying to get FST back to Owen Sound Fitness since the first time we had Steph Stretch Therapy here for a month almost 2 years ago! I'm SO excited that Lisa is now a Certified Fascial Stretch Therapist and we can offer this incredibly effective therapy consistently at Owen Sound Fitness & Training!"

Fascial Stretch Therapy (or FST),
is a type of stretching that targets not only the muscles, but the fascia, which is the connective tissue that surrounds muscles, bones, and joints and connects the body as a whole.
FST
also targets the joints and joint capsules, using traction and oscillation to gently remove restrictions from movement and to stimulate lubrication.
FST
is a table-based assisted stretch where a therapist will gently pull and move the arms, legs, spine, and neck in a smooth motion through the client’s personal range of motion. There is no pain or discomfort during your FST session, only a gentle stretch that is stimulating, healing and relaxing.
