Flexibility and Muscle Tension

Just as tension can be put into the body, you'll be happy to know that it can be taken out of the body!

DCT™ provides a way to improve flexibility by increasing strength and removing tension across the body. It is important to understand that Flexibility is really more about a person’s Range of Contraction (ROC) than their Range of Motion (ROM). Tension in both muscles and fascia restrict the ability of an individual to contract their muscles throughout their full range of motion. This is significant because the point of having a body is being able to use it!

If we are constantly teaching our bodies to relax into a ROM then we are essentially teaching ourselves to be weak at that ROM. DCT™ forces you to activate your muscles at all available ranges and increases that range using resistance so that as you become more “limber” you actually become stronger through that new range of motion. Hence the new and more appropriate term: range of contraction ("ROC").

Let a DCT™ practitioner assess your ROC and help remove your muscle tension and or fascial tension to increase your true Flexibility.
