Assisted Stretching
At Houghton Physical Therapy, we’re delighted to offer assisted stretching — a guided, hands-on approach to improving flexibility and mobility while helping your body move more comfortably.
Are you not moving quite how you’d like? Does that golf swing feel a little tight? Are daily chores becoming a little harder to maneuver? Assisted stretching gives your body the dedicated mobility work it needs to feel looser, move freer, and keep doing the things you love.

What Can I Expect from an Assisted Stretching Session?
Your session is led by Kristofer, our NASM-certified stretch coach, who will guide you through targeted, hands-on stretches tailored to your body.
All you have to do is relax — Kristofer does the work, helping you release tension, feel a little looser, and leave with a new bounce in your step.
No two bodies move exactly the same, so every session is customized based on your mobility, areas of tightness, activity level, and personal goals.
What Are the Benefits of Assisted Stretching?
Assisted stretching is a versatile addition to any wellness and recovery routine, and may help:
- Improve Flexibility & Range of Motion – Move more freely with targeted stretches that reach further than stretching on your own.
- Reduce Tightness & Stiffness – Ease that stiff, restricted feeling in muscles that have been working hard — or sitting still — all day.
- Improve Mobility & Movement Quality – Move better in the gym, on the course, and in everyday life.
- Support Recovery – Help your body bounce back from exercise and physical activity.
- Promote Relaxation – Decrease muscle tension and unwind, head to toe.
- Complement an Active Lifestyle – A simple, consistent way to invest in your long-term movement and wellness.
Is Assisted Stretching Right For You?
If your body isn’t moving the way it used to, you know the feeling:
- Feeling stiff and tight when you get out of bed or up from your desk
- A golf swing, workout, or favorite activity that doesn’t feel as smooth as it once did
- Everyday tasks — reaching, bending, lifting — becoming a little more difficult
- Knowing you should stretch more, but never quite getting around to it
The truth? You don’t have to accept tightness and stiffness as “just part of getting older” — and you don’t have to tackle it alone.
Whether you’re an athlete looking to stay mobile, someone who spends long hours sitting or standing, or simply want to move and feel better in everyday life, assisted stretching can be built into your regular wellness and recovery routine.
