What is Pickleball Stretch Therapy?
Pickleball Stretch Therapy is assisted stretching designed around the movements and physical demands of pickleball. Sessions may focus on areas commonly used during play, including the hips, legs, shoulders, back, and core, with the goal of supporting mobility, flexibility, and recovery.
What can I expect during an Individual Stretch Therapy session?
Individual Stretch Therapy provides one-on-one attention based on your body, activity level, and pickleball routine. Sessions use assisted stretching and mobility techniques to focus on areas that may feel tight or restricted and can be tailored to your individual recovery and movement goals.
What are Tournament Recovery Services?
Tournament Recovery Services bring professional stretch therapy directly to pickleball events. Players can book targeted recovery sessions between matches or throughout the tournament, giving them dedicated time to step away from the court, focus on mobility, and prepare for what's next.
What is the difference between the Release and Reset tournament sessions?
The Release is a 30-minute targeted recovery session designed for players with limited time between matches. The Reset is a 60-minute session that provides more time for a comprehensive assisted stretching and recovery experience. Both options are designed to fit the demands of a busy tournament day.
What does a Pre-Game Stretch & Warm-Up session include?
Pre-Game Stretch & Warm-Up sessions help players prepare their bodies for the demands of pickleball. Sessions incorporate assisted stretching and mobility work focused on helping players feel ready to move before stepping onto the court.
