Features & Benefits

Hips are a ball and socket joint which means their main function is mobility. The hips allow your thighs to rotate in and out, lift the leg front to back, adduction, abduction and to/ away from the body. The fact that most of us live a sedentary lifestyle creates tightness in the hip joint which will eventually restrict the body's ability to move. By using the Stretch Machine you can achieve stretches that might otherwise be uncomfortable or even impossible to get into and then hold the stretch long enough for the body to relax and get the benefits of the elongation.

More Info

When you stretch hips you help them to regain their original length which keeps your body functioning the way it was meant to and will help to lessen or eliminate pain. Three reasons to stretch hips:

Improved posture - You will be able to sit and stand more erectly
Correct workout technique - Your lower back will remain in neutral spine during squats and other exercises
Reduced injuries - There will be no compensation in the back or knees for hips that cannot perform their proper function due to tightness
