About Active Stretching
Active stretching involves holding a stretch position using the strength of your own muscles, with your therapist guiding proper form and alignment. Unlike passive stretching where someone pushes you into position, active stretching engages opposing muscle groups to create the stretch — strengthening one muscle while lengthening another. This technique improves functional flexibility that translates directly to real-world movement, making it perfect for athletes and active New Yorkers.
