Fascial Stretch Therapy in Port Credit at MyHealth Care Centre

MyHealth Care Centre offers fascial stretch therapy at 137 Queen St E in Port Credit, Mississauga. It is one of the hands-on techniques we may use in a rehab plan, together with chiropractic care, physiotherapy and exercise.

Fascial stretch therapy is assisted stretching. You lie on a padded table while your practitioner moves your legs, arms, hips and trunk through stretches that are hard to reach on your own. The stretches are slow, timed with your breathing, and kept in a range that feels comfortable.

Serving Port Credit, Lorne Park and the rest of Mississauga.

Where Fascial Stretching Fits in Your Rehab Plan

We think about rehab in phases: settling pain and irritation first, then getting movement and balance back, then building strength. Fascial stretch therapy is used most often in the movement phase, when the goal is to help stiff areas move more freely.

You don't have to pick between stretching and other care. Fascial stretch therapy can sit next to chiropractic care, physiotherapy and a home exercise program in the same plan. We'll talk with you about whether it fits, and how often.

Who Fascial Stretch Therapy May Not Suit

It is not right for everyone. Please tell us before your visit if any of these apply:

• A recent injury, fracture or surgery
• A joint that dislocates easily, or a condition that makes your joints very loose
• Osteoporosis or another condition that affects bone strength
• A blood clot, or a history of blood clots
• Pregnancy
• Sudden, severe or unexplained pain, numbness or weakness

We assess you first. If stretching is not a good fit right now, we'll talk about other options or refer you on.
