Fascial Stretch Therapy (FST) in Markham
Fascial Stretch Therapy is an assisted, table-based stretching treatment. Your therapist gently moves you through stretches that target muscles, joints and the surrounding connective tissue, helping you gain mobility you can’t easily reach on your own.
FST is delivered at M.O. Therapy by a Registered Massage Therapist who is also a trained Fascial Stretch Therapist, and it pairs well with massage for recovery and flexibility.
