microStretching®
beyond Stretching
Trusted by medical Professionals
microStretching® is a specialized evidence based system of low intensity gentle stretching. Our research focused on stretch intensity, the inflammatory response, and muscle function. Research by Dr. Nikos C. Apostolopoulos was the first to examine human subjects, blood biomarkers (hs-CRP) and stretch intensity as published in his book, Stretch Intensity and the Inflammatory Response – A Paradigm Shift.
Dr. Danny K - Chiropractor
“This is a technique that’s new, very unique and I think it’s kind of going to be revolutionary to the way that manual therapists, especially in my practice, start to utilize.”
Kaveh. N-Physical therapist
“I think this would benefit every practitioner out there and it’s a great tool not just for the patient because it also saves your hands. You don’t have to force the techniques anymore.”
Dr. Vasko G- Chiropractor
“I highly recommend this course for physiotherapists, chiropractors, massage therapists and anyone else in the manual medicine field.”
