Top 3 Conditions Treated with Fascia Stretch Therapy in the Upper Keys

Move Better, Feel Better — Naturally

If you're living in Key Largo, Tavernier, or Islamorada and feel like your body doesn't move the way it used to — you're not alone. Whether you're dealing with tight hips, nagging low back pain, or stiffness after a long day on your feet, Fascia Stretch Therapy (FST) offers a science-backed, hands-on solution.

Delivered through the proven Stretch to Win™ method, this form of assisted stretching goes beyond muscles to unlock tight connective tissue, restore mobility, and reduce pain — all without pills or surgery.

Here are the top three conditions we treat with Fascia Stretch Therapy across the Upper Keys.

1. Low Back Pain from Sitting or Standing Too Long

Whether you’re a boat captain on your feet all day or a remote worker sitting for hours, your lower back absorbs a lot of stress. The fascia around your hips, glutes, and lumbar spine can become tight, restricting movement and pulling your spine out of alignment.

How FST helps:

  • Releases tension in the hip flexors, hamstrings, and glutes

  • Improves spinal mobility and alignment

  • Relieves pressure on the lumbar discs and joints

  • Enhances circulation to help the body heal naturally

Real-life example:
A Key Largo dive instructor came to us with years of chronic back tightness. After just a few mobile sessions, he was able to move more freely — and get through a day of guiding dives without pain.

2. Hip Tightness and Sciatica

Tight hips can compress the sciatic nerve, leading to pain that radiates down the leg. This is especially common in servers, active parents, and retirees who golf, fish, or kayak frequently.

How FST helps:

  • Opens the hip joint through multi-directional stretching

  • Reduces sciatic nerve irritation by releasing deep gluteal muscles

  • Encourages proper movement patterns and posture

Bonus: Unlike deep tissue massage or chiropractic adjustments, FST is pain-free and calming — perfect for clients who want relief without discomfort.

3. Poor Posture and Upper Body Stiffness

Tech neck, rounded shoulders, and slouched posture are more common than ever — especially if you spend time at a desk or looking down at your phone. Over time, this leads to stiffness, headaches, and even numbness in the arms.

How FST helps:

  • Lengthens the chest and shoulder fascia to bring the shoulders back

  • Improves thoracic spine mobility

  • Releases tension in the neck and traps

  • Restores balance to your entire upper body

Many Upper Keys residents notice better posture and easier breathing after just one session.

Why the Stretch to Win™ Method Works

FST is not generic stretching. Developed by Ann and Chris Frederick, the Stretch to Win™ system uses rhythmic, pain-free movement to address the entire body’s fascial network. Sessions are done on a specialized table by certified professionals who guide your body through gentle traction and range of motion.

This approach:

  • Targets fascia, not just muscle

  • Works with your breath to calm the nervous system

  • Creates long-lasting results without pain or force
