Caleb Swartzendruber, Licensed Massage Therapist, helps person in wheelchair with Active Isolated Stretching and Strengthening exercise

The Mattes Method AIS is used to employ a full range of motion movements to contract and strengthen targeted muscles while at the same time stretching the opposing antagonist muscle. This simultaneous strength and flexibility training develops potency in the newly established range of motion, making it functional and safe, while balancing soft tissue tone across the joint.

Our Active Isolated Stretching Method:

promotes range of motion
restores and develops brain-muscle connectivity
increases the strength of muscles as well as other soft tissues including fascia, tendons and ligaments
