Stretch Therapy

For recovery, pain therapy, sports performance and wellbeing

Stretch Therapy Centre is the only gym in Malaysia offering stretching classes and workshops as a form of exercise for fitness and for rehabilitation, pain therapy and relaxation.

The classes appear similar to conventional yoga classes. However, the difference is each Stretch Therapy exercise is targeted to work certain muscles or groups of muscles; and our goal is building strength and flexibility without pain and injuries.

To be clear, Stretch Therapy does not teach any philosophy. Also, we are not chiropractors, physiotherapists or bone setting practitioners and we do not perform massages.

Why Stretch Therapy

Clear goals

Eliminate pain, release tension, build strength, and move with ease.

Find the root cause, achieve long-lasting effects

Body and neural integration

Proven results

Who are we

Founded in 1986 and developed at Australia National University Sports Union; Stretch Therapy is the world’s most comprehensive stretch system in terms of coverage, depth and effectiveness.

Stretch Therapy founder Kit Laughlin was an elite athlete suffering from chronic stiffness and severe backache. As he explored methods ranging from ballet to yoga, pilates and shiatsu massage, he found that most flexibility teachers were either naturally flexible or had started practicing from young. Their methods were not effective for adults who are stiff and in pain.

Kit ultimately resolved his stiffness and backpain by combining his innovations with inputs from these other methods and became the world’s authority in stretching.

At our Malaysian centre, you will be exclusively taught by its founders Wai Kuan and Chi-Chang.

First-timers

All adults, regardless of fitness level, are welcome to join our classes and occasional workshops. You will begin with an individual assessment for starters. We tailor guidance to suit your individual requirements.
