Welcome back to “Glowing Review” presented by RosieGlow Skin Studio. Every month, I try out a new health, wellness, self-care, or beauty trend, and share my experience with you!
This month, thanks to RosieGlow, I am sharing my experience at Stretch Zone, another Woman-Owned business right here in our community. Stretch Zone, located in Meadowmont, is a practitioner facilitated stretching studio, designed to help you heal from injuries, regain your range of motion for the activities you love, or just help with your general mobility.
I attended a yoga class yesterday, and it was pretty clear by the end of the 45 minute session that I only showed up for the mimosa that came with my registration. I struggled through the class because it took longer than it should for my body to loosen up. I don’t have the range of motion or flexibility I had when I was younger, and it doesn’t take a yoga class for me to feel the effects. Simple things like going on a hike, walking my dogs, and doing yardwork can all be made more manageable by regular stretching on my own, and at Stretch Zone.
(That voice you just heard was my husband asking, “what yardwork?” out loud.)
During my session at Stretch Zone, I was encouraged to be very vocal about how my body was responding to the different stretches. I felt totally comfortable with their General Manager, Colby, as he guided me through my visit. Using a unique process called Stretch Zone Method®, Colby helped me get a deep stretch, while also making sure there was no risk of injury.
I know that everyone’s expectations with self-care investments are different, which is why I use the “Self-Care Scale” in each edition of “Glowing Review,” so you can choose what to try based on what outcome matters the most to you.
Experience: Assisted stretching at Stretch Zone Chapel Hill
Relaxation Level: 8. It was my instinct to rate it higher based on how refreshed I felt when I left my appointment, but there is some involvement required from you. You can’t fully “check-out” because you need to be open and vocal about how you’re feeling with each stretch.
Painful Meter: 2. Other than that “hurt so good” feeling that comes from an impactful stretch, I didn’t find this to be painful. Thanks to the Stretch Zone Method®, you stay in your comfort zone with regard to your range of motion, while also slightly pushing your muscles to work a little harder.
External Results: While you probably won’t notice any external results, your body will feel like you gave it a gift. I felt lighter and more refreshed, and someone else did all the work!
I look at my mind and my body as best friends who talk a lot. When I’m nice to one, the other usually sends me a thank you note. (They’re very polite.) Something that I’ve learned over the last 18 months is that we have to acknowledge how our bodies are feeling in a holistic way. Whether this is your mind or your muscles, if you are feeling pain or discomfort, don’t ignore those messages. The physical improvements you’ll discover at Stretch Zone will, in turn, help your mind feel healthier too.
I can’t believe it took me this long to mention your first session is FREE at Stretch Zone! There’s a reason every fitness routine or exercise class begins and ends with stretching. Everyone can benefit from it. From playing 18 holes to simply walking up the stairs – anything you are currently asking your body to do can be made a little easier by stretching.
