What is FST?

What is the difference between traditional stretching vs Fascia Stretch Therapy?

Traditional Stretching is a fundamental practice that focuses on elongating tissues to improve flexibility. By maintaining tension at the point of resistance for about 15 to 30 seconds, ideally repeated 2 to 3 times per muscle group, one can gradually enhance their range of motion. While initially beneficial, it is important to approach stretching cautiously as excessive or improper techniques may yield limited improvements or potentially cause new injuries.

Fascia Stretch Therapy is a technique that focuses on treating the entire person, not just specific body parts. It involves painless movements that circulate gently, helping decompress joints and increase space in soft tissues. Besides improving flexibility, it enhances the ability to move comfortably and sense posture during stillness and motion. Overall, FST promotes a sense of well-being, confidence, and self-comfort, making it a key element in personal and professional growth.
