  Any professional concerned with enhancing musculoskeletal health — whether through 
  massage therapy, physical therapy, fitness training, or other modalities — 
  understands that the way people exercise has a profound impact on their overall health, 
  mobility, resilience, and ability to recover from injuries. While many different types of exercise 
  may be beneficial, one in particular stands out from the rest as a uniquely efficient and 
  effective approach: Active Isolated Stretching (AIS), developed by kinesiologist Aaron Mattes.
     2 ½ Day Workshops • 16 CE Hours Each

     Why Practice AIS?
     •  To enhance your ability to treat and prevent injuries. AIS speeds the healing of muscles, 
     tendons, ligaments, fascia, and joints. Combining this technique with other forms of treatment can 
     accelerate the recovery process by up to 50%. And by increasing flexibility, strength, and resilience, it 
     can greatly reduce an individual’s vulnerability to future injuries. When minor strains or tears do occur, 
     continued AIS work helps to prevent the buildup of adhesive scar tissue — a major contributor to 
     stiffness, inflexibility, chronic injury, and pain conditions.
     •  To help clients feel younger and healthier. As we grow older, many of us accept limitations to our 
     body’s functioning (such as a reduced range of motion, decreased strength and flexibility, and impaired 
     coordination or fine motor skills) as an inevitable result of the aging process. Through AIS, many of these 
     declines can be successfully prevented or reversed, often dramatically improving a person’s well-being 
     and quality of life.
     • To work with degenerative neuromuscular conditions. By stimulating neural growth, creating 
     new neural pathways, and reducing muscle spasticity, AIS can successfully reduce the symptoms of 
     various debilitating conditions — including Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, and other diseases — that 
     do not respond to other forms of manual treatment.
     What You’ll Learn in this Course
     This intensive training will give you a solid foundation in the principles of AIS and the skills to apply 
     them to the lower and upper body. Each participant will receive ample personal attention from the 
     instructor, with plenty of time to practice and refine each of the stretching protocols. 
     You’ll learn to:
     • Assess the optimal range of motion for each joint in the body
     • Maximize the flexibility of every major muscle group in the lower and upper body
     • Stretch with precision the proximal and distal aspects of the muscle separately
     • Take joints to their healthy maximum range of motion
     • Use these techniques to speed recovery from injury
     You’ll leave the course fully prepared to use these techniques with your clients on Monday morning.
