Fascial Stretch Therapy at Nova

Nova Health Club • February 4, 2022

What is Fascial Stretch Therapy?


Fascial Stretch Therapy (FST) is a form of assisted stretching that has the ability to improve mobility and flexibility in your muscles and surrounding fascia.  FST utilizes traction, circumduction and the oscillation of joints and connective tissues in practice.  Rather than focus on isolated muscles, FST broadens the scope focusing on fascia lines and nets throughout the body which encompass muscle, organs and nerves. 


What are the Benefits of FST?


  • Stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system which restores the body to a calm and composed state
  • Reduce or eliminate stress
  • Improve flexibility and range of motion
  • Improve posture and mobility
  • Decrease joint aches and pains
  • Improve overall circulation and increase blood flow to muscles (shorter recovery times)
  • Reduce muscle tension and risk of injury


Who can Benefit from FST?


Absolutely everyone from the most sedentary to high performing athletes can benefit from FST.  If you are experiencing tight hips, spend most of the day seated, lack range of motion in your joints or are trying to improve your game, FST would benefit you.
