has been developed over 10 years by Prof Lederman to provide a solution
to the limitations of traditional stretching approaches. It focuses on active restoration of ROM, using task-specific, functional movement
patterns. This approach is informed by research in the areas of tissue
adaptation, motor control, pain and cognitive-behavioural sciences.
Functional Stretching can be used to recover ROM losses in various
musculoskeletal conditions including stiffness in chronic low back and
neck complaints, post-injury rehabilitation, immobilisation, surgery,
frozen shoulder and central nervous system damage. Part of the course
will also examine the potential use of functional stretching in pain and
stiffness alleviation and ROM-desensitisation.
