OUR PHILOSOPHY

At Mountain High Stretch & Wellness, we believe that everyone deserves a body that supports the life they want to live—not one held back by tightness, pain, or restricted movement. Through advanced Flex Therapy, corrective flexibility training, and personalized movement coaching, we help people rediscover natural mobility, comfort, and control in their bodies.

Modern life places tremendous strain on the body:

● Hours sitting at desks
● Repetitive movements at work
● Sports and gym training
● Recovery challenges as we age
● Stress and tension patterns

These factors create muscular imbalances that limit motion, decrease flexibility, and increase joint strain and discomfort.

WHY FLEX THERAPY?

Flex Therapy is a guided flexibility and mobility system that uses hands-on stretching with active muscle engagement. Each session targets tight muscles, improves neuromuscular control, and supports healthier, more efficient movement. It’s not just passive stretching—it’s structured, corrective, and designed to deliver noticeable results quickly.

Key Benefits
Flex Therapy helps you:

● Increase flexibility and functional range of motion
● Reduce chronic muscle tension and discomfort
● Improve posture, balance, and movement quality
● Boost performance in sports, workouts, and daily activities
● Recover faster while supporting long-term joint health

Your body performs better when it moves the way it’s meant to—aligned, strong, and stress-free.

He holds a BA in Psychobiology from Northland College and has spent more than three decades specializing in physical performance, strength training, corrective movement, and functional wellness. He also brings numerous years as a practicing Chiropractor (now retired), specializing in assisted flexibility techniques, muscle energy, and positional myofascial release, which further enhances his ability to assess movement quality and support soft-tissue function.

● Assisted full-body and targeted stretching
● Gentle soft-tissue and mobility techniques
● Corrective movement and muscle-balancing strategies
● Customized home stretching and exercise plans

His sessions—offered in 30-minute or 60-minute formats—aim to relieve tension, improve functional range of motion, reduce inflammation from overuse, and support the body’s natural healing process. Rick’s philosophy is simple: motion is medicine, and consistent, intelligent movement creates lasting change.
