Show Notes

For many years stretching was considered to be the answer to tight, tense muscles.  However, with the explosion of neuromuscular science, the notion of stretching has become considered outdated and unsafe in certain cases.

Within this episode, listen to the expressions and statements made by health experts who explain why stretching is detrimental to the repair of your muscle tissue.  Heidi explains the science behind behind the 3 step process used in Total Somatics known as PANDICULATION.  This process gets to the control centre for all muscle control, contraction and release.....your brain.
