StretchLab, an assisted stretch concept that aims to identify tightness and imbalances in the body by creating a customized stretching routine for its clients, will open its first location in Chandler at 1969 W. Ray Road #1, Chandler, AZ 85224 in December. In addition to opening this new location, the franchise owner, Jennifer Gage, recently acquired the newly rebranded Dana Park location in Mesa at 1940 S. Val Vista Drive Mesa, AZ 85204.
To celebrate the grand opening of the Chandler location, StretchLab will offer discounted presale memberships beginning Sept. and continuing until the opening date.
Gage opened the first Valley StretchLab in 2018. Dana Park marked her seventh location, and Chandler North will be her eighth. Her history of entrepreneurship and start-up companies gave her the necessary tools to rapidly expand StretchLab into eight locations in six years. Gage is also the founder of GiGi’s Playhouse Phoenix Down Syndrome Achievement Center, which offers free educational therapeutic, fitness and career development programs from prenatal down syndrome diagnosis through independent adult life.
“I am so excited to be part of two awesome East Valley communities,” said Gage. “Stretching is an important element of anyone’s health and wellness repertoire and is meant for all ages and body types. It can help increase range of motion and flexibility, which can help in training and day-to-day living.”
Founded in 2015, StretchLab’s mission is to provide the highest quality assisted stretching services to clients of all types and allow them to reclaim their freedom through gaining a wider range of motion and flexibility. The Flexologist™ Training Program requires all trainers to complete 60 to 70+ hours of theory and hands-on training while learning the muscular system, assisted stretches and how to work with a variety of clients. Flexologists use the Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) method in one-on-one sessions to increase range of motion for maximum benefits.
StretchLab offers one-on-one assisted stretches with options of a 25-minute targeted stretch or a 50-minute all body stretch. The 25-minute stretch concentrates on major muscle groups in one area to help alleviate muscle tightness from daily office work or intense workouts. The 50-minute stretch, which is an ideal comprehensive, whole body option, helps those struggling from tight muscles and aching or stiff joints and athletes who would like to improve sport performance. There is also a 50-minute group stretch option, which is a small group format with stretches that are fully customized to the client’s level of mobility and activity. In group settings, the Flexologist™ guides the class on how to use stretch tools like stretch straps and foam rollers.
