Active Isolated Stretching, or AIS, is a movement protocol combining flexibility and strengthening exercises. The techniques can be done either in a chair of on a massage table. The practitioner instructs the client in how to perform the exercises, which isolate and stretch specific muscles, gently and incrementally making use of multiple repetitions and deep breathing to facilitate the work.

The Alexander Technique is a simple and practical method for improving ease of movement, and promoting better balance, support, flexibility, and coordination. Particular attention is paid to the alignment of the head, neck, and torso, allowing the body's anti-gravity reflexes to work without interference. The Technique offers the client an opportunity to take charge of their own learning and healing process because it is an active exploration that results in a skill set that can be applied in every situation.
