.. Now back to must-have information about stretching!

Stretching is arguably the most underrated physical therapy available for anyone suffering from pain and dysfunction. Effective stretching techniques can bring immediate relief from many types of muscular tightness and pain.

In our Stretch classes, we draw from the principles of Stretch Therapy, a comprehensive therapeutic system that includes stretching, fascial remodelling, strengthening, neural re-patterning, and relaxation. We also incorporate wisdom and techniques from yoga and martial arts.

Classes are 90 minutes in length (including a well-earned deep relaxation at the end of each class!) with the instructor's aim being to stretch all of the major muscle groups in each class.

Our classes are run on a nine-week basis in conjunction with school terms. In these classes, we teach the safest and most effective ways to increase flexibility and relieve muscular tightness and pain, adapting stretches for people of different levels of ability.

Our classes can help with:

* Lower back pain and sciatica
* Neck and shoulder pain/tightness
* Tennis elbow
* Tension headache
* Pain in the hips, buttocks, calves, hamstrings, forearms

Our classes:
* Reduce muscle tightness
* Increase flexibility and range of motion.
* Enhance athletic performance.
* Reduce the chance of injury
* Promote faster recovery from injuries

Our new term of classes starts Monday, February 2, 2026. Classes are at 6pm on Monday or 6pm Thursdays.

Price: $180 for the 9-week term (one class per week) or $300 for two classes per week.

To enrol or make an inquiry, phone 4325 5448 or email tim@ccbodymechanics.com.au

2026 is your year to get FLEXY!!!

What are you waiting for!!
