StretchLab Expands in OC with New Irvine Location

08.18.20

As the majority of Orange County residents continue to work from home and have limited access to workout facilities, a unique new assisted stretching studio is expanding here, with StretchLab opening in Irvine’s Harvard Place Shopping Center. StretchLab offers one-on-one assisted stretching to increase range of motion and flexibility; reduce stress, muscle, and joint pain; improve sports performance; improve posture, and more.

At their first visit, clients will receive a personal assessment by StretchLab’s exclusive MAPS (Mobility, Activation, Posture and Symmetry) machine, using technology that scans their body and movement as they perform squats. Based on this evaluation, clients receive a customized stretching plan based on their personal needs.

The experienced staff are certified in physical therapy, kinesiology, and other health and wellness disciplines, as well as the additional StretchLab certification of Flexology training that the company provides.

StretchLab has an open and spacious studio and is following extensive safety guidelines, from performing temperature checks and requiring masks on employees and clients, to limiting appointments to two clients at a time in the 1,300 square foot studio.

StretchLab offers a variety of one-on-one personalized stretching services including a 25-minute stretch that concentrates on the client’s current stretching needs, as well as a 50-minute head-to-toe deep stretch that addresses all major muscle groups. In addition to one-on-one stretching services, small group classes will eventually be added when it’s safe to do so, in which a trained Flexologist™ will lead clients through a warm-up and sequence of stretches to address major muscle groups. Monthly memberships are available for four or eight visits per month, as well as drop-in stretches.

Open 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday; 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday; 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.

The new StretchLab is in Harvard Place Shopping Center at 17585-B Harvard in Irvine, and can be reached at 949.346.2870.
