Fascia Stretch Therapy
Fascia Stretch Therapy is a pain-free, manual stretching technique developed by Ann Frederick in Chandler, Arizona. As a proud provider of this Fascia service since 2012, I hold a Level 3 (Advanced) certification. FST includes a series of lower and upper body stretches, along with neck stretching, all while you relax comfortably on the massage table. This in-home therapy offers significant benefits and lasting results. Additionally, incorporating Pilates training can enhance your overall flexibility and well-being.
Lymph
Addressing your lymphatic system directly can absolutely help with chronic pain and a variety of issues such as inflammation, swelling, edema, performance, healing, recovery, vitality, and resilience. Your lymph system may be the underlying linchpin to your recovery. Ask me about how in-home Pilates training can help assess your lymphatic system, and we can focus your stretch session on effective stretching techniques that benefit both your fascia and overall wellness.
Muscle Testing
Do you have nagging body complaints that keep recurring? Do you feel like you’re chasing pain? I frequently use muscle testing to identify areas of weakness, which helps guide what we do in our stretch sessions. Sometimes, incorporating movement through in-home Pilates training can aid in addressing these issues, particularly by focusing on the fascia and enhancing flexibility through effective stretching.
Z-Health
Harnessing the power of applied neuroscience, I am fully educated in Z-Health Performance, having completed all 12 certifications and studied neuroscience for 6 years, taking over 36 courses in total. This education complements over a thousand hours of practice, enabling me to assist you effectively. A Z-Health education equips me with the necessary tools to accurately assess, identify, and target key areas of the nervous system that impact movement, athletic performance, pain, and daily functioning. Additionally, through in-home Pilates training and specialized stretching techniques, including fascia-focused stretches, I can help maximize your results.
Wellness Workshops
Wellness workshops are designed to educate and inspire you to live a healthier, happier life.

These workshops may also offer options for in-home Pilates training to help you incorporate effective stretching routines into your daily life.

I am an expert in teaching Pilates training, specializing in helping strong men, cross-training athletes, and anyone with a history of sports or movement discipline excellence who has a strong desire to change their body.

Pilates emphasizes strengthening the core muscles and includes stretching to improve flexibility.
