At Osteopathic Healing Hands, we help people in Houston move with ease again. Our stretch therapy is made for older adults who feel stiff, tight, or limited in their daily lives. Whether it’s hard to get out of the car, chase after your grandkids, or go for a walk without discomfort, we’re here to help.

We offer stretch therapy in Houston that’s gentle, hands-on, and tailored to your body. No intense workouts. No fancy machines. Just relax and let our experts guide your body through supportive movement techniques that many patients find beneficial.

Are you fed up with expensive PT that didn’t work, or chiropractic you feel is overrated and didn’t work for you?   Have you not done the 12 exercises your PT gave and you are feeling guilty?  Are  you looking for a more viable longer term solution, with a much better value? You’ve probably tried these things, or don’t believe in these things ,or don’t want to do these things.  Let us be your self care resource instead.  What if you could just lie there and let us help you feel better?

Stretching That Has Helped Others Support More Comfortable Daily Movement

Stretching isn’t just about touching your toes. For many of our patients, it’s about getting out of the car without pain, walking comfortably through the grocery store, or playing with their grandchildren without worrying about their back.
With our team’s support, many patients reported they:

  • Feel less stiff in key areas
  • Move more comfortably during daily tasks
  • Can travel and have an increased quality of life because everyday activities feel easier

What Happens During a Session?

At our stretch studio in Houston, each session is one-on-one. You’ll lie down comfortably while we gently move and stretch your body.
We offer several proven stretching techniques based upon our physician guided osteopathic influence at our clinic, including:

  • Assisted Stretching – We gently move your body through stretches to release tight muscles and improve motion.
  • PNF Stretching –  A technique often used to support strength and range after injury or stiffness.
  • Active Isolated Stretching – Targets areas like the lower back, hamstrings, or shoulders.
  • Fascial Stretch Therapy –  A gentle method that has been shown to reduce deep tension around your joints.

Think of it like a blend of osteopathic principles, physical therapy, yoga, and massage, but customized just for your body’s needs.

Who Can Benefit from Assisted Stretch Therapy?

Stretch therapy is suitable for adults of all ages, but it’s especially beneficial for those between 40+ who feel limited in daily movement. Here is the list of people who can benefit from stretching.

Older Adults

Aging can lead to joint stiffness, balance issues, and reduced mobility. Professional stretching helps maintain independence and ease of movement.

Office Workers

Long hours at a desk can lead to tight hips, neck strain, and bad posture. Stretching helps loosen stiff muscles and improve circulation.

Runners & Walkers

Whether you’re a weekend jogger or daily walker, your legs and lower back take on repetitive stress. Assisted stretching helps improve range of motion, prevent injury, and speed up recovery.

Gardening Lovers

Gardening often involves bending and kneeling, which may strain your back and knees. Stretch therapy may help ease muscle tightness, making these activities more manageable.

Travelers

New cultures and sites are amazing to see now that you have earned this, but these tight spaces and long hours on planes and beds that might not be what you have at home can play a toll on your body.  Especially when you are sightseeing and getting around stairs and longer distances.
