WHO WE ARE:

We have worked with countless individuals performing the most innovative techniques of Fascial Stretch Therapy. We’re passionate about implementing recovery as a daily fundamental part of living a healthy and active lifestyle.

We are building a team of professionals dedicated to improving the health, wellness, and athletic performance of our members.

OUR TRAINING:

Our education training program requires each movement therapist to complete the Level 1 certification at the Stretch to Win Institute in Chandler, AZ. If you are not currently certified don’t worry, Stretchwerks offers financial assistance for qualified applicants. Once registered you will be paired up with a Stretchwerks team member prior to your level 1 certification date. Here you will begin to learn the very principles and techniques revealed in your level 1 course work. Our goal is to help you apply the information you will learn through the level 1 modules to assist in the knowledge and experience you will have at certification. When you come back we will spend an additional 15-20 hours with you enhancing your knowledge of Level 1 and teaching you other Stretchwerks principles. Each Movement therapist is thoroughly trained, tested, and audited to ensure we are delivering the highest level of service and education to our members.

OUR COMPENSATION:
We offer competitive pay and benefits that reward highly motivated performers. In addition, we always look for ways to reward those who stand out amongst their peers and demonstrate true dedication. This could include spot bonuses, as well as other incentives to reward team members who go above and beyond.
