We’ve opened Manchester’s first clinically led one-to-one assisted stretching studio
Stretched has launched its first studio outside scotland offering personalised assisted stretching sessions to improve mobility, flexibility and overall wellbeing.
Manchester has a new wellness destination with the opening of Stretched, the uk’s first clinically led, one-to-one assisted stretching studio.
Officially opening on November, 15 the studio welcomed the local wellness community for an exclusive open day and marks Stretched’s first expansion outside scotland.
Located on Fountain Street in the heart of the city centre, Stretched provides clients with a full-body mobility assessment using advanced motion analysis technology.
Following the assessment, each client receives a one-to-one, full-body assisted stretch with a trained Stretch Therapist, designed to target areas of tension and improve flexibility, posture and range of movement.


Stretched has already proved a huge success in glasgow and edinburgh, offering a controlled and deeper stretch than can be achieved alone.
