“You are only as young as your spine is flexible.” – Joseph Pilates

Hunched back, tight hips, and forward-head posture are common issues people face nowadays, as they spend long periods bending over smartphones and other devices in this digital age. Sitting for an extended period causes our muscle fibres to contract and shorten, leading to tightness and tension in the body and affecting our range of motion. As some of these areas are not easily accessible due to physical limitations, assisted stretching can be helpful. Regular stretching helps to alleviate tension in the body quickly while increasing the range of motion. Learn how you can safely stretch each meridian line so that you can perform an assisted stretch on others. A valuable tool for anyone interested in learning self-healing and helping others after the course.

This course is an invaluable tool for yoga teachers, as it will impart more knowledge and support for adjusting your students’ postural alignment, with an effective focus on the meridians.

Upon completion, you will receive a Meridian Assisted Stretch course certification. This course is a component of our Integrated Therapeutics Pathway Course.
