Active Isolate Stretching is one of the most effective modalities
of massage and body work. With AIS scar tissue is broken up, the
muscle is lengthened, muscle memory is restored, and circulation of blood
and lymph increases oxygen while removing toxins. Relief from pain and
tension occurs while healing starts immediately.
People become stiff and sore for many reasons. The main
reason is due to the fact that the muscles tighten up and become short.
Repetitive use, stress, excessive exercise, poor posture, truma or injuries
are just a few causes. Our heart pumps the blood but it is the muscles'
job to help move the fluid through the body.
When a muscle becomes short and tight, circulation to the
area becomes restricted. The key to its effectiveness is in holding the
stretch for only 2 seconds. When a stretch is held longer than two seconds,
the muscle contracts to protect it's self from tearing. This also reduces
circulation creating ischemia (poor blood circulation), lactic acid build
up and damage to the muscle.
What are the top benefits to AIS stretching?
|
• |
Promotes muscle and tendon growth by increasing nutrition and
oxygenation to the tissues
|
• |
Helps eliminate metabolic waste from cells by stimulating and
pumping the lymphatic drainage system
|
• |
Increase muscle health and elasticity so you burn more body fat
and become symmetrical
|
• |
Breaks down fascial gluing between the muscles
|
• |
Breaks down fibrotic scar tissue adhesions and reduces inflammation
|
• |
Realigns collagen fiber matrix in muscle and fasica, the
building blocks of soft tissue
|
• |
Reduce muscle spasm and functional tightness
|
• |
Reduces the risk of muscle strains and tearing
|
• |
Increases recovery and regeneration between workouts so you can
train longer and more frequently while reducing the risk of overtraining
|
• |
Increases peak preformance and response time for movement,
prolonging your athletic career
