About The Stretch Therapists

More Than a Method, A Movement

The Stretch Therapists, Inc. (TST Inc.) is a premier wellness organization dedicated to transforming the assisted stretching industry from the inside out. Founded and led by a team of women of color with deep professional backgrounds in bodywork, fitness, and health sciences, TST Inc. operates on a bold premise: to empower practitioners to transition from high-volume clinical models to independent, thriving business ownership.

Unlike B2C franchises that focus solely on direct consumer service, TST Inc. is a B2B operation focused on training, certifying, and providing the entrepreneurial tools needed for modern wellness professionals to achieve true agency.

Our Vision and Mission

Our vision is to create the most empowering, inclusive, and diverse certification experiences in floor-based assisted stretching and mobility for wellness and fitness professionals. 

Our mission is to teach our flagship Performance Stretch System™ to thousands of professionals so that, collectively, we may "stretch the world," change lives, and unlock our highest potential. To accomplish this, we:

• Work persistently to promote our services to the best professionals while treating them with kindness and care.
• Evolve our systems to stay at the forefront of the industry.
• Embody inclusivity and diversity in every aspect of our training.
• Share success and wealth with our community.

The Performance Stretch System™

The Performance Stretch System™ (PSS) is our flagship, CEU-accredited curriculum designed for effectiveness and safety. It blends ancient principles such as breathwork and grounding with modern movement science and business strategy.

Our practitioners focus on:

• Assisted Manual Stretching: Utilizing safe, controlled static, dynamic, and PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) techniques.
• Movement Assessments: Identifying areas of tightness and tracking progress through methods like the Test & Retest protocol.
• Nervous System Regulation: Using directive breathing to down-regulate the central nervous system (CNS) and promote systemic relaxation.
• Client Education: Providing self-stretching and posture alignment protocols to ensure long-term results.

The TST Advantage: Community & Empowerment

With a growing alumni network of over 700 members, TST Inc. serves as a human multiplier. Many of our certified practitioners are former employees of major clinical franchises who sought the freedom and strategic knowledge to launch their own practices.

We offer a long-term support system that extends far beyond a training weekend, including a digital practitioner directory, business coaching, and a vetted international teaching team. By prioritizing equity and empowerment, we invest deeply in helping underrepresented providers—especially women and BIPOC practitioners—become leaders in their local wellness markets.
