25.01.2022 A great stretch for the quadriceps and hip flexors that can help to relieve tension and improve mobility in your hips and lower back. Swipe across for some variations that you may find useful in exploring as possible progressions towards this position. All of the muscles and fascia involved with flexing the hip, extending the knee and dorsiflexing the ankle (the superficial front line of the body) will need to lengthen for you to get into these positions, and you may feel res...trictions anywhere along this particular line. For the best results simply tune in to where you experience the tightest restriction, and then find a variation that best targets that specific area. Don’t be surprised if there is a noticeable difference between your left and right side as well, just find a way to spent more time and effort on your tighter side to help restore balance and symmetry. #stretchtherapy #stretchtherapysessions #peregiansprings #noosa #sunshinecoast #stretching #flexibility #superficialfrontline #myofascialmeridians #anatomytrains #anteriorpelvictilt #backpain #hippain #fai #hipmobility #hipflexorstretch #psoasstretch #couchstretch #quadstretch #pnf #contractrelax #yoga #notyoga

24.01.2022 Joint mobilisation for the hip to help restore, or in this case, maintain healthy pain-free movement by relaxing the joint capsule, promoting blood flow and flushing the synovial fluid within the joint. Receiving passive joint mobilisation along with other techniques to address soft-tissue restriction is a great way to compliment active self-care such as stretching, neural re-patterning and strength training, and it feels great in the process. @movementwithhannah @tribal_groo...ve #stretchtherapysessions #zenthaishiatsu #movementbasedtherapy #jointmobilisation

24.01.2022 The basics of wrist and forearm self-care. Here are some different options for stretching out your forearms, wrists and hands to keep them functioning well. This is great self-care for people who spend a lot of time working with their hands, typing, etc. Some basic stretching concepts that can be used in some of these positions:... 1) Gently and slowly pulse in and out of the stretch position 2) Hold a gentle static stretch in the final position 3) Apply the contract-relax (PNF) technique The closer your hands are to your knees, the less intense these stretches will be, so start with your hands in close and only move your hands further away as required. Go slow, move mindfully and listen to your body. #stretchtherapysessions #stretchtherapy #sunshinecoast #peregiansprings #wrists #stretching #flexibility #mobility #forearms #wristseries #wristmobility #contractrelax #contractrelaxstretching #pnf #pnfstretching #handstands #yoga #selfcare See more

23.01.2022 Another day, another great Stretch Therapy video. This one looks particularly amazing!

22.01.2022 Classes starting this Thursday @ 9:30am!

22.01.2022 Hi everyone, the next event is coming up in a little over 2 weeks time! Join in for an exploration of Stretch Therapy with a little something for the entire body. Check out the event below for all the details.

21.01.2022 In Chinese Medicine it is understood that where there is stagnation, there is likely to be pain. Traditionally, cupping therapy aims to clear blockages in the energetic meridians to restore the free flow of chi, blood and other vital fluids within the body, bringing fresh nutrients and oxygen to the area, and increasing lymphatic drainage to help with the removal of accumulated waste. In western medicine it may be seen as a novel stimulus to the body that provides a decompres...sive force to the underlying tissue (fascia, muscle, ligaments, tendons etc.). This provides a different sensation to the more common compressive forces experienced during massage and stretching. For some people this promotes a deep relaxation response and assists with reducing pain and discomfort. An ancient therapy that has survived to the present day. #zenthaishiatsu #movementbasedtherapy #stretchtherapysessions #peregiansprings #noosa #sunshinecoast #cupping #cuppingtherapy #chinesemedicine #traditionalchinesemedicine #tcm #fiveelementtheory #meridians #selfcare #relaxation

20.01.2022 A little movement based therapy for the neck to help improve soft tissue quality, reduce pain and stiffness and restore movement. @kirramolnar @your.move.space #zenthaishiatsu #movementbasedtherapy #stretchtherapysessions #peregiansprings #sunshinecoast

20.01.2022 It has been such a blessing to connect with the amazing Kim Morrison and offer her a little self-care support in the form of some movement based therapy treatments. If you’re looking for inspiration on cultivating deep and compassionate self-love then you might like to check out Kim’s books, mentorship or her new podcast launching very soon!

19.01.2022 An honour to support Jordan Mercer in her training with a deep physical and energetic restoration session combined with stretching and neural re-patterning work to release habitual tension patterns and restore movement freedom. #zenthaishiatsu #stretchtherapy #stretchtherapysessions #peregiansprings #sunshinecoast

19.01.2022 Hi everyone, if you aren’t seeing many posts from this page recently, then Firstly, the chances are that you won’t see this one either, and Secondly, I mostly post via Instagram these days where it seems more people are actually getting to see some posts.... So if it’s a better fit for you then maybe I’ll see you over there. https://www.instagram.com/stretchtherapysessions

19.01.2022 A movement based therapy session with @genbrewer from @seachangepilatesnoosa where we began to explore some Chi Nei Tsang inspired bodywork for the internal organs of the belly. Great therapy for supporting digestion, liver function and lower back health with the integration of specific work for the SI joint, psoas and diaphragm. #zenthaishiatsu #movementbasedtherapy #shiatsu #zenshiatsu #traditionalthaimassage #osteopathy #chinesemedicine #acupressure #jointmobilisation #assistedstretching #fascialunwinding #chineitsang #stretchtherapysessions #peregiansprings #sunshinecoast

18.01.2022 Efficiency and effortless effort. When offering bodywork or when partnering someone in a stretch, it’s useful to think about how to use as little effort as necessary. Positioning ourselves to provide perpendicular pressure allows us to best utilise leverage to our advantage, requires the least amount of effort, and creates a solid and stable base for the person in the stretch.... These photos highlight this important detail in a beautiful partner stretch for supraspinatus and middle deltoid that is just as easy, though not quite as effective, to do solo. #stretchtherapysessions #stretchtherapy #movementbasedtherapy #partnerstretching #supraspinatus #middledeltoid #sunshinecoast #mastershoulderflexibility @stretchtherapyhome

18.01.2022 Partner assistance should help you to feel stable, supported and safe to explore all of the different sensations that arise during a deep stretch experience. The extra weight of a partner also offers a unique chance to relax completely, given you don’t have to exert extra effort to pull yourself deeper into the stretch position. #stretchtherapysessions #sunshinecoast #stretchtherapy #flexibility #stretching #pnf #contractrelax #partnerstretching #assistedstretching #yoga #notyoga #hipflexors #hipflexorstretch #psoas #psoasstretch

18.01.2022 The best cue for any stretch is the one that helps you to move safely into the required position to feel the stretch in the desired location.

17.01.2022 A river cuts through rock not because of its power but because of its persistence. Jim Watkins When you encounter an obstacle along your path does your awareness expand and allow you to tap into a soft and fluid energy to find a new alternative path? Or does your awareness become more intense and focused, allowing you to forge ahead and move straight through in a direct fashion?... When it comes bodywork, yoga, stretching or any other movement practice, I feel both of these paths are incredibly useful in helping us to identify, experience and ultimately release the fixated patterns and habitual tension we all tend to carry. Repetitive pulsating, rocking, spiralling and wave like organic movements certainly provide us with many benefits, and so too does the direct and precise techniques we find in alignment based practices. Perhaps the path we should choose is simply the one less travelled. Gently step our toes outside of our comfort zone, or take a running jump over the edge. Consciously choosing a different way, one that is less familiar to us, will itself shine the light of awareness on yet another one of our fixated patterns. Dark to light. @movementwithhannah #zenthaishiatsu #movementbasedtherapy #yoga #notyoga #stretchtherapysessions #peregiansprings #noosa #sunshinecoast

15.01.2022 Another restorative session with Jordan Mercer from a few weeks ago, which always includes a lot of remedial shoulder work to help balance out the training demands of an elite ocean sport athlete. Whilst Jordan’s incredible sporting achievements speak for themselves, I’m always left truly inspired by her humble and inquisitive nature, always open and receptive to soaking up new information and experiences.

14.01.2022 Zenthai Shiatsu movement-based therapy is more than just a massage. Facilitated movements, assisted stretching, acupressure and meridian therapy, joint mobilisation and fascial unwinding are all woven together into each deeply restorative session. Drawing on the fundamental principles and techniques from Zen Shiatsu, Traditional Thai Massage and western Osteopathy there are many tools available to effectively free the physical body from restrictions and pain, balance the ...energetic systems whilst providing a safe and caring space to allow for emotional healing.

14.01.2022 It was great to have Kirra Molnar from Your Move Space in for another restorative Zenthai Shiatsu session today. Lots of attention for the hips and shoulders in this session, with a focus on releasing some tension through the neck and shoulders. #zenthaishiatsu #movementbasedtherapy #stretchtherapysessions #peregiansprings #sunshinecoast #zenshiatsu #traditionalthaimassage #osteopathy #acupressure #yoga #traditionalchinesemedicine #tcm #bodywork #selfcare

14.01.2022 This is an excellent resource for anyone interested in the Stretch Therapy system. Big thank-you to Kit & Liv for making it available to all. Grab your own copy while you can!

13.01.2022 The best part about teaching workshops is not knowing when a photo is being taken. The classic tailor pose is a fundamental position for opening the hips and a key preparatory stretch for anyone working towards pancake or middle splits. Shown here is an elevated variation to demonstrate one option for deepening the position once you can get your legs to the floor.... @bloomin_lotus_yoga #stretchtherapysessions #stretchtherapy #sunshinecoast #stretching #flexibility #adductors #adductorstretch #tailorpose #cobblerpose #butterflystretch #boundanglepose #baddhakonasana #contractrelax #pnf #weightedstretching See more

13.01.2022 One of the great benefits of partnered stretching is the ability to use tactile feedback to ensure the correct alignment and execution of an exercise. Most people tend to find it easier to understand how to push or pull against something they can feel, rather than contracting a particular muscle or imagining a particular movement. In essence it’s a more effective and efficient way to improve the neural connection between the brain and the body. In turn facilitating deeper awa...reness of the body, the ultimate goal. @crlyclln @bloomin_lotus_yoga #stretchtherapysessions #stretchtherapy #partnerstretching #peregiansprings #sunshinecoast

13.01.2022 Restoration session for Kirra Seale to help with recovery from non-stop travelling and surfing. Good luck at the World Surf League Noosa Longboard Open this weekend! #stretchtherapysessions #zenthaishiatsu #stretchtherapy #sunshinecoast

12.01.2022 Zenthai Shiatsu shoulder therapy. Joint mobilisation techniques are great for exploring range of movement and any pain with specific movements, as well as identifying muscular stiffness and tension patterns surrounding the joint. Freeing any restrictions increases the flow of energy through the meridians of the arms, helping to restore pain-free movement and improve nerve signalling, blood flow, and lymphatic drainage.... Plus it feels good. The video is a little taste of some shoulder therapy offered to @kirramolnar during a Zenthai Shiatsu treatment.

11.01.2022 I absolutely love this back bend variation to explore thoracic extension and any restrictions felt through the front of the upper body. In essence this is a partial pose, a small fragment of a thoracic bridge in gymnastics or the wheel pose in yoga, that doesn’t have the shoulder flexion or hip extension requirements of the full pose. And by keeping the hips flexed we can maintain a neutral lumbar spine and more effectively focus on extending through the thoracic spine.... I’m bending over a purpose built stretching prop with two different sized curves to bend over. But, anything with a similar shape will work. A soft object to bend over will simply deform under your weight, so it’s preferable to use something that is rigid enough to ensure your body needs to bend around it, yet soft enough to maintain a level of comfort. Take your time with this one, moving slowly into the stretch on each exhale and only as your body softens and allows. No force is required. Follow it up with some form of a forward bend as a counter pose. This stretch feels fantastic and I find it’s the perfect antidote to a day spent hunched over a computer. @_promovement #stretchtherapy #movementbasedtherapy #stretchtherapysessions #peregiansprings #noosa #sunshinecoast #stretching #flexibility #mobility #movement #movementculture #bodyweightfitness #calisthenics #gymnastics #handstand #handstandline #backbend #backbending #thoracicextension #bridge #wheelpose #partialpose #babywhale #stretchingprop #superficialfrontline #yoga #notyoga

11.01.2022 A treatment that I offered to a beautiful friend a little while ago. It was an honour to offer some Zenthai Shiatsu treatments to @kristinscherdin during her last pregnancy and this was the first treatment we had together after bub was born. An hour of quiet time to drop into a deeply restorative state was very welcome.... #stretchtherapysessions #zenthaishiatsu #sunshinecoast See more

11.01.2022 Zenthai Shiatsu movement based therapy. Blood, prana and nerves form the foundation of our body's internal pathways, referred in eastern healing traditions as 'the river of life that ensures good health and vitality'. When this is obstructed through emotional and physical trauma, postural imbalances or external invasion of pathogens, the natural healing mechanisms of our body is challenged and the 'free flowing river' stagnates.... The result is pain, low energy and a general loss of well being. Zenthai Shiatsu addresses these needs by drawing on the Traditional Energetic based systems of Zen Shiatsu, Traditional Thai Massage and the remediation techniques of Osteopathy. By integrating the prime aspects of these modalities and through the creation of a safe, awake and caring healing environment, Zenthai has evolved to become an effective structural and energetic form of therapy.

09.01.2022 An amazing stretch for the outer hamstrings as well as calves this is a deep stretch with strong fascial and neural components. With this particular stretch we often get to experience the body’s intelligence and desire to move towards the path of least resistance, making the correct cues essential to getting the most out of the stretch. #stretchtherapysessions #stretchtherapy #hamstringstretch #flexibility #movementbasedtherapy #sunshinecoast

09.01.2022 Passive back bending over a support. A fantastic restorative stretch and a great way to begin opening up the front of the body and restoring our ability to extend through the thoracic spine. #stretchtherapy #stretchtherapysessions #peregiansprings #noosa #sunshinecoast

07.01.2022 Sometimes a beautiful mama just needs to receive a little attention. @emmelyrackemannhealthcoach #stretchtherapysessions #zenthaishiatsu #movementbasedtherapy #sunshinecoast

07.01.2022 Gentle rocking to help dissolve tension along the spine all the way up into the neck and shoulders. @jordanmercer_1 #zenthaishiatsu #movementbasedtherapy #stretchtherapysessions #peregiansprings #sunshinecoast

06.01.2022 A comfortable wall supported variation of a popular stretch for the glutes and piriformis. Tightness through this area can contribute significantly to hip and back pain for a lot of people and the piriformis muscle in particular (one of the six deep external rotators of the hip) is often thought to be a common cause for people suffering with sciatica. Due to the differences in our own physical structures it’s important to try many different stretching variations for this ...part of the hip to find one that works for you. A weekly class is now being offered at @_promovement in Noosa for anyone interested in exploring how stretching can help to reduce muscular tension and enhance movement capacity. #stretchtherapysessions #stretchtherapy #movementbasedtherapy #piriformis #piriformissyndrome #backpain #sunshinecoast See more

05.01.2022 The ability to extend your toes under load, especially the big toe, is a pretty important requirement in order to walk and run without compensation. #stretchtherapy #selfcare #stretchtherapysessions #sunshinecoast

03.01.2022 One of the most under appreciated reasons to stretch is it simply feels good. So smile, have a little fun and approach stretching with a sense of joyful curiosity. @bloomin_lotus_yoga ... #stretchtherapysessions #sunshinecoast #stretchtherapy #joyfulcuriosity #gratitude #fun #stretching #flexibility #yoga #notyoga #hipmobility #hipstretch See more

02.01.2022 Posted @withregram @kimmorrison28 I’m ever so grateful to @craigrackemann from @stretchtherapysessions for the incredible body stretch and balance work I received. Stretch Therapy is safe and effective self-care methods for releasing patterns of habitual tension, improving flexibility, developing strength and enhancing better movement. If you’re ever of the Sunshine Coast I can not recommend him highly enough. What a treat to surrender and be guided to relax and release all tension. #stretchtherapy #moveyourbody #releasetension #rejuvenatemuscles #surrenderandletgo #peregiansprings #sunshinecoast

01.01.2022 Mobile treatment day in Caloundra! I have 1 space remaining for a mobile treatment on Mon 2nd March from 2:30pm. Message me for details if you’re interested.
