New stretch and recovery studio slated to open in Buckhead

A stretch and recovery studio plans to open its first location in Atlanta.

Motion Stretch Studio was introduced last year in Cobb County and have since opened in Massachusetts and Texas. A Buckhead location is slated to open June 22 at 3655 Roswell Road.

Locations are also “coming soon” to Dunwoody and Brookhaven, the website says.

During 30-minute private sessions, a stretch coach applies pressure on “eight myofascial trigger points, which releases tension, reinvigorates the body, improves range of motion and frees the fascia,” a press release said. The sessions, customized based on the client’s lifestyle, are intended to improve posture, flexibility and fitness levels.

Stretch coaches are licensed massage therapists or certified athletic trainers, the press release said. Coaches must complete a training course, pass an evaluation exam and receive continuous training.

All first time visitors get a complimentary session. Book one here.
