Dr. Nikos Apostolopoulos is the Founder and Developer of microStretching® and Stretch Therapy™. microStretching® is a recovery- regeneration technique rooted in functional-clinical anatomy. It is the applied outcome of Nikos’ Ph.D. research. Since its inception, microStretching® has been used to treat many professional, elite, and amateur athletes, including those who compete at the Olympic level and the NHL, the NBA. The premise behind microStretching® is to dampen the sympathetic nervous system (the one that triggers a fight or flight response) so a relaxation response is created (i.e., the parasympathetic nervous system is engaged) through a stretching technique that is fully supported and causes no pain. The process is helpful for everyone, from those in their senior years right through to elite athletes.
