Assisted stretching franchise StretchLab, which is part of Xponential Fitness, has had its proprietary Flexologist Training Program (FTP) accredited by the Institute for Credentialing Excellence (ICE). Students completing this course will now receive a nationally recognised certificate in assisted stretching, which is the first of its kind in the industry.
StretchLab’s training programme includes 50-70 hours of curriculum focused on stretching, flexibility and mobility training. The company demonstrated its compliance with ICE 1100:2019 – Standard for Assessment-Based Certificate Programs in order to receive the accreditation, which is classified as a standard by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
“As StretchLab continues to grow rapidly, we want to make sure the public knows they can trust flexologists at our studios to provide scientifically-backed, nationally accredited wellness services,” said Austin Martinez, VP of training and experience at StretchLab. “This recognition from ICE validates assisted stretching as a mainstream wellness practice and positions StretchLab as the industry leader.”
StretchLab, which is backed by Xponential Fitness, was founded in 2015 and provides one-on-one and group-assisted stretching sessions. The team uses Physmodo MAPS technology to track mobility, muscle activation, posture and body symmetry, which facilitates the creation of customised stretching programs for clients to achieve their wellness goals.
