Episode 35: Is Stretching Good For You?

Form, Function and Flow Lab with Dr. Kate

In this week’s episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about stretching. Lots of my patients think that stretching is super beneficial that’s why they do a lot of it. However, I do not recommend just doing static stretching. There are three different kinds of stretching and I wanted to share about them so you can be aware of which is the best type that you can practice.

In this episode we discuss:

• [0:36] Introduction to the topic
• [2:01] Static Stretching
• [3:14] Ballistic Stretching
• [4:32] Dynamic Stretching
• [8:47] When is Static Stretching best used
• [10:04] Why do you want to stretch
• [12:50] Conclusion

If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you send me a message through Facebook or Instagram. I’d be happy to do another podcast about your questions. Also, if you want me to talk about something specific, let me know!

You can also check my TikTok account as I use the platform to educate viewers about movement, chiropractic education, yoga, pregnancy, and more!

Thank you for listening and see you next week!
