Stretch Therapy is a programme designed by Shimon Tchobutaru. It is a system of specific stretching exercises tailored for the mature age male. (50+) Over his many years of teaching, Shimon observed that Men in their middle to mature years suffer from excessive bodily stiffness. Whilst living on King Island he also noticed that the rural male continues to work late into life. As a result of farmers working hard and long in life, he realised that many men are suffering from physical discomforts and limitations. Through these observations and many discussions with rural men, Shimon formulated a Stretch Therapy programme to aid stiff and rigid bodies. The programme was launched on King Island targeting the rural male and has proven not only a great success but a boon for men dealing with stiff and tight bodies. Shimon’s classes have help men with back problems, shoulder issues, tight hips and hamstrings, poor posture and general aches and pains. The participants have gained more mobility in their bodies, suffered less pain and gained greater levels of energy. Along with the physical benefits, Shimon’s Stretch therapy programmes also promotes mental wellbeing where the mind becomes steady, calm and focused. This Stretch Therapy programme has evolved from Shimon’s many years of teaching Yoga and other physical modalities. He has modified Yoga poses and physical stretches, so they are accessible, adaptable and easy to follow. All you need to practice our Stretch Therapy programmes is an open mind and a willingness to gain more movement in your body.
