MUSKAN RASTOGI
STRETCHING
Stretching is a general term used to
describe any therapeutic maneuver
designed to increase the extensibility of
soft tissues, thereby improving
flexibility by elongating(lengthening)
structures that have adaptively shortened
and have become hypermobile over time.
INDICATIONS
● ROM is limited because soft tissues have lost their
extensibility as the result of adhesions, contractures
and scar tissue formation, causing activity or
participation restrictions.
● Restricted motion may lead to structural deformities that
are otherwise preventable.
● Muscle weakness and shortening of opposing tissue have
led to limited ROM.
● May be a component of a total fitness or sport-specific
conditioning program designed to prevent or reduce the
risk of musculoskeletal injuries.
● May be used prior to and after vigorous exercise.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
● A bony block limits joint motion
● There was a recent fracture and bony reunion is incomplete
● There is evidence of an acute inflammatory or infectious
process(heat and swelling) or soft tissue healing could be
disrupted in the restricted tissues and surrounding region
● There is sharp, acute pain with joint movement or muscle
elongation
● A hematoma or other indication of tissue trauma is observed
● Joint hypermobility already exists
● Shortened soft tissues provide necessary joint stability in
lieu of normal structural stability or neuromuscular
control.
● Shortened soft tissues enable a patient with paralysis or
severe muscle weakness to perform specific functional
BENEFITS AND OUTCOMES OF STRETCHING
● Increased flexibility and ROM
● For general fitness
● Injury prevention
● Reduced post-exercise muscle soreness
● Enhanced performance
DETERMINANTS
● Alignment: Positioning a limb or the body such that the
stretch force is directed to the appropriate muscle group.
● Stabilization: Fixation of a bony segment that has an
attachment of the muscle to be stretched.
● Intensity of Stretch: Magnitude of the stretch force
applied.
● Duration of Stretch: Length of time the stretch force is
applied during a stretch cycle.
● Speed of stretch: Rate of initial application of the
stretch force.
● Frequency of Stretch: Number of stretching sessions per day
or per week.
● Mode of stretch: Form or manner in which the stretch force
is applied or the source of stretch force.
TYPES OF STRETCHING
● Static stretching
● Cyclic/Intermittent stretching
● Ballistic Stretching
● PNF stretching
● Manual Stretching
● Mechanical Stretching
● Self-Stretching
● Passive Stretching
● Active Stretching
