Where can we get this program? 🙏

stretching is a better option thsn massage for bodywork for big people

Board certified physiatrists (rehab docs) are the experts in addressing trigger points, regenerative medicine, and more. THEY would be more likely to be specialists in living with hypermobility. Which is what every hypermobile child I have ever treated gets their rehab therapy referrals from.

Stretching people is so much fun!

This is so great!! I love it 😊

Fire!!

Great video guys. Really sums up what FST is all about and captures the vibe and experience of being in the course.. taking level 1 and 2 has been an absolute life changer for my coaching career and I cant wait for level 3 in May!

Thank you B-Train, Ann & Chris... I'm so lucky, that I got the chance to learn from you and the whole, really inspiring team of FST-Teachers. Looking forward to see you soon again to be able to learn more, so that I can give more.

Great interview. Very informative. Thankyou both.

Regarding the Beighton score and how it is not a tell all. I can't touch my thumb to my wrist in the downward direction they say but I can touch my thumb to my wrist the opposite way, the above direction. Even others with Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome can rarely do that. So, I agree, there needs to be a different determination. Also, I feel very strongly that checking children for hypermobility should be as important as checking eyesight and hearing. Just showing how little the highly respected physical therapists at Stretch to Win know about Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome let alone pediatricians, in comparison with the commonality statistics of (1:100, 1:30, 20%) shows how urgent this subject is. Also, the statistics regarding race are very important. Much higher in dark skinned individuals, from middle eastern to african. Most of the information tends to make one think the opposite...that it's more common in fair skinned individuals. Thank you for covering this very important subject.

Top professionalism. Where can I buy black belts to stabilize the body?

I only feel the pain when im on the plantar flex position and i put pressure on my calcaneus. The injury happened while training muay thai, i kicked the bag too hard. Ever since then i had to stop training and running. It happned a month ago, barely feels any better now but i still feel the pain when i put pressure on it. Can you guide me to any exercises to treat it at home? Please and thank you

I was diagnosed about a year ago after my nephew was diagnosed and I looked at the list of symptoms and basically everything clicked. You are blowing my mind though as things like the stretch marks I had at age 12 were explained. Unfortunately, I have had 3 injuries from accidents that they had decided my natural flexibility led to greater injury, but I took like 3 times longer to recover from them than "normal" people. My last accident was from a drunk driver hitting me when I was standing outside my car in the middle of the day and my head was thrown against the side roof of my car, giving me a TBI and a vestibular disorder. That was 11 years ago, but I have twice done little things that gave me another concussion, which mystified me, but you're explanation that we have looser connective tissue in the brain so it more easily gets sloshed/banged around explains it. On the topic of "do you stretch someone with hypermobility or EDS?", I was back in PT for about 2 months 1.5 years ago as I badly tripped and jarred my low back and set my spinal stenosis and other low back/hip issues gravely off. I didn't know that I had EDS yet but they saw that I was Uber flexible. But what can be maddening for a PATIENT in such a typical PT situation is that they tell the insurance company that they are going to work to return the patient to "normal" range of motion. But the problem for a hypermobile individual is that you are used to functioning and existing with a much greater range of motion than "normal" people and, at least for me, your body badly hurts if you DON'T restore it to a range/ability where you can regularly stretch to the degree where you have much less pain. But when you achieve the "regular" range of motion, your PT wants to discharge you because the insurance company will no longer PAY for them to work with the patient to return them to THEIR normal functioning. (I guess unless you are a Michael Phelps, they aren't going to help a typical hypermobile individual return to how they are used to existing because "normal" is fine for them, even if stopping at that spot in recovery creates greater pain, less quality of life, and greater limitations for the hypermobile individual). I don't know if specialists treating hypermobile and EDS persons can plead the case to insurance companies to restore patients to THEIR normal in PT and not just what is typical within a population.

Ann will we learn that dance in FST 2?

I miss you guys! You are incredible!

Ann you are the best

I've never been officially diagnosed as having hEDS. Recently someone who has EDS with POTS and a number of other disorders asked me if I have EDS because she noticed how I was standing. She also asked if I can touch the floor with my palms. Yes, of course, and I can do the splits in all directions, even at my age. I've never heard of EDS before, but I have so many other conditions I had no idea were related to me being flexible. As a child I would sit with my legs in a W. I have had stretch marks since I was about 12. My fingers hyper extend when I hold a pencil. My wingspan is about 3.5" longer than my height. I can easily put my fingers around my wrist (and forearms). Heck, I can put my hands on my waist and touch my fingertips behind my back. I have Raynauds and am sensitive to cold. I have big eyes and overcrowded teeth. One more thing I haven't heard as much is that I'm sensitive to acetominaphin. So, despite never hearing of this before I'd say there is strong evidence that says I've probably got this, and I've been freaking out a little bit. The person who originally asked me if I have EDS talked about joints coming out, organs moving around, skin not healing fast. I've got occasional joint pain, like right now because I was dancing and jumping for a few hours the other day, but I've never had anything come out of socket that I'm aware I've. I'm not clumsy. I don't faint, though I do get light headed at times when lifting weights. What I appreciate hearing here is about Michael Phelps and this can be a super power. I am a fast swimmer- not Michael Phelps fast, but I enjoy swimming laps. This doesn't have to be something to be afraid of.

Struggling to hold in the fart.

as a dissector from argentina, this is such a joy to listen to and learn from. Thanks.

Hey doc does this os trigonum grows in size after 21?

Great information....Thank you so much for sharing!

This is such an amazing lady and incredibly informative webinar!

my twins both got a ton of stretch marks when they were 9 yo. Both thin girls.

This is so different from the book

Y’all gotta make more videos like this one you did. Marketing team needs to go brrr more often

Great interview, Dr. Frederick and Dr. Hartman. Thank you!

These are two wonderful practitioners on this video. Paige is doing so much for first responders, and Chris really handled a trauma release event very thoroughly. Thanks Chris F for moderating. Great point about the "intention" changes with level 3 training. So well put, really impressive. Keep up the great work!

This is Awesome!

Best stretch I've had in a very long time. Thank you!

You guys are the best educators ever!🎉

I’m learning about this right now because my autistic teenage son is falling asleep at school and has always been prone to fatigue. This explained my pain, IBS, fatigue, etc. Four of my five sons scored 5 or higher on the Beighton score.

Can you help people with Fibromyalgia?

I have posterior ankle impingement and my lateral malleolus is sticking out a bit.. What possibly could be the reason?

Also, if scars can become unrestricted and get their feeling back, what about people who have neuropathy? Since its cause isn’t scar tissue, would this therapy be pointless?

I’m curious about whether or not this technique could be effective for facial rejuvenation?

My experience with lower back pain tells me that any kind of heavy weight lifting is not a good idea. Exercises to develop muscle will strengthen and protect the lower back, but putting stress on bone and disc is not going to help and risks causing damage and pain.

She’s amazing! What a treasure! I’ve had several sessions with Susie and she has helped me tremendously! My range of motion improves with every stretch. ❤

Thank you Chris for sharing this great interview with Dr. Harman, super valuable information about hypermobility spectrum disorder!

I believe Thai massage is the original - and no straps required.

Hi! I’ve checked your website but I don’t see Life Stretch certification courses. Are they still being offered?

As soon as I'm done taking my first course of FST on the 28th of this month, I'll be looking to join your program immediately. I can't wait

I was an avid weightliftrr since 16 ..at 24 I got diagnosed with spondylolisthesis. Stopped lifting for 3 years. .got fat.....pain got worse ....had a daughter...carrying her made the pain worse ......decided to fuck it off and start lifting again and my pain is 70% better
