Description
Do you ever wonder why so many stretching routines seem to come up short? Well, muscle is usually not the problem. In fact, restrictions in movement are commonly caused by stiff, immobile joints or connective tissues. Learn how to use body therapy tools along with patterns of muscular chain release to go beyond stretching. Explore anterior, posterior and lateral chains and get options for self-massage and attention from head to toe.
