Stretching
It’s
not inevitable! I
often see women and men in their fifties, forties, and
even thirties begin to limit their physical activity
because they are starting to experience unaccustomed
aches and pains. Quite often, their discomfort can simply
be a matter of muscles that desperately need to be stretched.
Not realizing this, they try to avoid pain by further
restricting their levels of physical activity. A vicious
cycle has begun, unnecessarily contributing to what
we call “old age.” Simply stretching can
help stop this cycle or prevent it from ever beginning.
All
new patients receive an extensive packet of stretches that
I have put together myself through going to various classes
taught by stretching experts. I call it the Osborne Chiropractic
Clinic Flexibility System. Along with the packet, proper
instructions are offered.
Benefits
of Stretching:
• Increases
circulation
• Increases elasticity of muscle
• Increases range of motion
• Aids in prevention of injuries
• Increases muscle strength and endurance
