Our Flexologists have creditable  backgrounds, from certified athletic trainers and corrective exercise specialists to scholars receiving their master’s degrees in kinesiology, rehabilitative science, or athletic training. They all complete extensive courses in kinesiology and physiology. StretchLab then requires that they complete a hands-on training program that is 50-60 hours. This program is exclusive to StretchLab.
