Stretch 2.1

What IS Exercise Rehabilitation?

Australians call it Applied Exercise Physiology, to South Africans its Biokinetics, and to Raanana-ans, we call it the next best thing!

Exercise Rehab is defined as the science of movement and the application of exercise in rehabilitative treatment or performance.

We treat your aches and pains (chronic or acute) effectively, using types of exercise.

We treat a range of different struggles. These include:
- Lower back pain
- Computer-syndrome
- Pelvic Stabilisation
- Orthopaedic rehabilitation
- Chronic disease rehabilitation (Diabetes, Heart Disease, Osteoporosis)
- Elderly Strength care
- Balance improvement
- Running-style correction

Example: Treating ‘computer-syndrome’.
You drive to Tel Aviv, sit in the traffic for an hour, get to work, sit at your desk till lunch, sit for a quick bite to eat, sit for an afternoon full of meetings, sit for a cuppa coffee, sit in the car on the way home, have a sit down for supper and finally enjoy some family time (sitting!) - you get the picture, sitting, sitting and more sitting! New research shows we are sitting for up to 15 hours per day! And you climb into bed, complaining how your neck aches, and how you can't turn over in bed because your back is just too sore! Your partner convinces you to book your umpteenth physio appointment to try and relieve the pain.
Two days later its copy and paste!

At Stretch, we have a simpler solution - all you have to do is learn how to sit correctly! We teach you how to activate your shoulders which stabilisers your help and reduces pressure on the neck. By doing this you strengthened your ‘core belt’ which relieves the continuous pressure on your lower back which is where you are feeling the pain!

This is what Stretch is all about!

I will teach you how to activate these postural muscles so you can climb into bed with a pain-free smile on your face!

Another example - for all the runners out there:
You just love running, and can do a 5km in great time. But every time you try push further, something else goes - your knee, your ankle, your back, your motivation, your sanity! The most common error you are probably making is not training your lower leg and pelvic stabilisers which support your running style. I will assess your body, assess your running style, and show you how to do simple, quick exercises that will support your run and get you to that next level - while being pain-free!

Or perhaps you dream of being the runner that runs gracefully off to the Hertzliya beach on Fridays, but have no idea where to start? I will teach you how to train, in a safe and effective way to get you past the beach!

Last example - 60 years young:
You've hit 60, and have noticed that you have to sit down to put on your socks and shoes, and can't lift up your grandkids anymore. Come empower yourself with the skills of keeping your body up to scratch - balancing, stretching and strengthening your way through your 60s +.
