The Stretch U Story It all started with a simple idea at a family gathering. John Carey, a Physical Therapist with over 20 years of experience, began using his expertise to provide life-changing stretches for his family members. That compassionate beginning grew into Stretch U, a community dedicated to improving flexibility and mobility for over 400,000 clients and counting. We are experts in one-on-one assisted stretching, and this is our story. The Stretch U System Drawing from his deep background in physical therapy, John developed a personalized protocol for full body assisted stretching. Our system is built on safety and effectiveness, emphasizing a neutral neck and spine alignment in every movement. This detailed approach, which incorporates principles of techniques like Myofascial Release, allows us to cater to a wide range of individuals—from young athletes seeking a competitive edge to retirees looking to stay active and mobile. Expansion and Future Plans Established in September 2010, Stretch U has grown to nine brick-and-mortar locations across Oklahoma, Missouri, and California, with plans for further expansion nationwide.
