Stretching exercises are an essential part of any successful healing program. - Stretching exercises improve the flexibility and suppleness of our muscles, ligaments and connective tissue. - Stretching can also help bring relief to a wide variety of health issues, including arthritis, fibromyalgia, depression, anxiety, PMS, menopause, and menstrual cramps. It is also beneficial for chronic fatigue, hypothyroidism, heart disease, high blood pressure and many other conditions. - Stretches provide an oasis of calm in which you can put aside your stress and focus on doing the exercises slowly and on breathing calmly and deeply. - The areas where women have tight and tense muscles often correspond to the same areas of the body where they have health issues. Stretching exercises can greatly help these underlying health issues by relaxing the affected muscles, restoring elasticity and flexibility to the affected parts of the body. - Stretching also improves blood flow, oxygenation, nutrient flow and cellular energy to the affected organs and tissues.
