SELF HELP
Stretching helps to balance muscle groups that might be overused during exercise or physical training or as a result of bad posture.
- When a joint has limited range of motion, muscles, tendons and ligaments are at risk to strains and sprains.
- When you stretch on a regular basis the length of your muscles and tendons is increased.
- As a result of this, muscle tension is minimised and normal range of movement is increased thus improving muscle balance and posture.
- The more flexible and pliable your muscles, the less chance you will be prone to injuries.
EASILY DONE
Stretching is great for all ages and levels of flexibility.
- It’s not only great for the body but also good for the mind as it induces a sense of well-being and relaxation.
- Stretching can be done almost anywhere and at anytime and is easily incorporated as part of your daily routine.
