Assisted stretching comes to South London. Stretch Life opens it’s doors in Waterloo Station, SE1 in September, bringing the power of physio-led PNF assisted stretching to South London.

We’ve got some exciting news: Assisted Stretching just got even more convenient. Stretch Life is expanding, and our brand new studio opens at Waterloo Station on Tuesday 9th September.

Mobility is the true currency of your future health. It is the freedom to move without pain, to engage in activities you love, and to maintain your independence as you age. Without it, even the most robust financial portfolio can feel diminished.

Why PNF Assisted Stretching Is a Smarter, Safer and Longer-Lasting Way to Unlock Your Body

At Stretch Life, there’s one thing we want to make crystal clear from the start.
You will not feel pain during your stretch.
If stretching hurts, especially after you’ve left the table, it’s not a sign of progress. It’s often a sign that your body has been pushed too far, too fast. And that can actually set you back.

When you breathe well during an assisted stretching session, you’re tapping into your parasympathetic nervous system. That’s the part of your brain that says, you’re safe, you can let go. This is when the real gains in mobility and flexibility happen.

Have you ever found yourself wondering about the cause of your neck pain, or instinctively tensing and releasing your shoulders in an attempt to ease the strain? If so, you are certainly not alone. For many, a significant portion of the day is spent sitting, either at a desk, driving, or even slumped on the sofa and suboptimal posture frequently underlies persistent shoulder and neck pain.
