Our assisted stretching sessions incorporate three therapeutic techniques: PNF (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation), traction, and mobilization. These techniques are designed to enhance joint range of motion, alleviate pain and muscle tension, realign the joints, and improve overall function in the affected area.

 

The PNF (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation) Method includes contracting and then relaxing specific muscle groups to improve flexibility and range of motion. A side benefit of this method is that it also increases body awareness, which is so crucial for that mind-body connection!

 

Joint mobilization, on the other hand, utilizes a gentle force to move the joint within its normal range of motion. This method gradually increases tissue mobility and flexibility while also restoring proper joint alignment and optimizing range of motion.

 

Additionally, we offer traction therapy at Elong to provide decompression for the spine and alleviate pain from joints, sprains, and spasms. This technique is particularly beneficial for individuals with pinched nerves or sciatica.

 

These three techniques are highly advantageous for individuals suffering from musculoskeletal disorders, sports injuries, or chronic pain conditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, or sciatic pain
