Services
Facilitated PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) stretching techniques are based on neuro-physiological mechanisms in the body.
PNF is an approach to stretching where the client is actively involved.
Active contraction of the muscles in question help reset their tone and flexibility by directly stimulating the muscle spindles and golgi tendon organs.
When the contraction gets too intense, the golgi tendon shuts the muscle down causing relaxation which leads to increased flexibility.
This allows the therapist to stretch the targeted muscle to a much greater range of motion than can be obtained by self induced passive stretching.

I recently started having massages by Doug to deal with back and leg problems that were impeding my performance in running and biking.
After two treatments, I noticed how much stronger I was biking.
Doug relieved me of my leg aches that were slowing me down.
His therapeutic techniques really do provide maximum effectiveness and better results.
He is able to read my body and then target each session to what my body is telling him.
No two sessions are alike, which tells me Doug is very responsive to client needs.
