Keani is truly an amazing stretch therapist! Her patience, dedication, and compassion have made such a difference in helping me with my chronic right hip discomfort. She takes the time to understand my needs and makes every session feel personalized and supportive. I can truly feel the progress I am making on my journey toward healing and recovery. Keani is not only excellent at what she does, but she genuinely cares about her clients. I feel very fortunate and blessed to have her helping me through this journey. She is simply the best, and I highly recommend her! read more

StretchLab Alameda - Fitness & Instruction Near Me - Alameda, California

Let me tell you something. I don't vouch for places often, but the StretchLab and assisted stretching should absolutely be a thing. I'll get back to why I said "should" a little later. I walked in for my 12:00pm appointment and the place was pretty much empty, aside from the attendant at the desk who happen to be who would be stretching me. Estrella introduced herself, asked me to sign my waiver, and walked me over to the assessment tablet. Before laying down to start my stretches, I asked that she rewipe the table (can never be too careful) and she did it without any issue. Thank you for that. She was so easy going and very informative about muscle groups, necessary stretches needed to loosen me up, etc. Once we got into it, the stretching was amazing (as was the conversation) and the information she gave me about my own body. She was putting me in stretches that I've never done and when it was all over, my body felt so good. Now things I didn't like: The place being empty made me waaaaaaay more comfortable because the openness can be a bit off-putting for some of the stretches/conversations. Shortly after getting started another customer came in and it went from peaceful to hearing his conversation about his body with the other attendant. I also didn't like that Estrella had to keep stopping to help walk-ins asking about services. That was a bit distracting during my session. The massage "waiting" chair being stationed right next to the table where my stretch was taking place was a bit of an issue too. When other clients walked in, she offered them the chair, but it was so close to us. It made me a little uncomfortable and a little more reserved in conversation. Nevertheless, it was a good experience. I was able to get in on an introductory price of $79.00. After my stretch was done, Estrella spoke to me about the benefits of continuing my stretches and about purchasing membership/subscription options - all at a higher price. I honestly believe $79.00 is the perfect price for this service, especially in this economy. The membership/subscription options are pretty expensive and why I said it "should" be a regular thing, but feels like more of a luxury that you must decide whether you need or not. Overall, it was a great experience I'm still on the fence on whether I'll buy a membership/subscription, but I have recommended quite a few people try it out. read more

I can't say enough good things about StretchLab in Alameda. I've been doing sessions with Daniel and Tidiany, and both have been incredible. They really take the time to assess and target my problem areas, especially the spots that tend to be injury-prone. They're professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly, which makes every session productive and comfortable. In just one month, I've already seen significant progress in my flexibility, mobility, and overall strength. My husband just started this week, and after his first session he said he could feel a difference immediately. That says a lot. If you're dealing with tightness, recurring injuries, or just want to move and feel better, I highly recommend StretchLab Alameda. read more

Daniel is an absolute pro who gives you his undivided attention and truly personalizes the experience for everyone he stretches. Whether it's been a week or more than a month since I've been in, he takes the time to identify points of emphasis and creates a new routine each visit. Operating with a respect for your current level of activity, whatever caused the stiffness/soreness you're addressing together, and anything you might be working towards - whether that's a competition, goal, or more relaxing work day - Daniel will meet you where you're at and gradually take things further. I look forward to every session. read more

My first time ever doing an assisted stretch was last week at Stretchlab Alameda with Xin. The assisted stretch session was effective, Xin's chill demeanor made me comfortable, and I'm now excited to see how much more flexible I can become over time with Stretchlab's help. I have constantly told my wife how I should stretch more and so last Christmas she gifted me a gift card for Stretchlab. I was hesitant to try because the activity is so foreign to me, but since she spent the money I didn't want to let it go to waste. I'm very happy with the result from my first session and am looking forward to a follow up sometime in the near future. Directly after my session I felt more limber - my tight calves, hamstrings, neck, shoulders, and forearms were loose first time in years. Xin informed me to stay hydrated over the next few days and treat the stretch session as a work out. The guidance was appreciated since my body was sore (a good workout sore) over the next 2 days. Xin is a good guy. I learned a lot from our chats during the session. I recommend assisted stretch sessions to those who need help achieving a deep stretch. I recommend Xin for his effective, educational, and chill vibe. read more

Well first of all, they answered the phone when I called. That was a huge plus! When I got there, I was greeted by welcoming and caring staff. They took time to listen to where my pain was worst and helped me decide what needed most attention. The 50 minutes seemed like a long time. And I mean that in the most appreciative way. I felt I got a lot stretched in 50 minutes time. The lady who did my work, Estrella, was very gentle and helpful. It was a great experience. I am not sore. And I will be returning soon. The introductory offer is certainly worth it! read more

Estrella has been wonderful to work with. She is very encouraging to stretch a little more but also mindful of my comfort level. I love the flexibility of the 25 minute weekly stretch for those weeks that I really need it but need to squeeze into my schedule. My back is feeling better since starting regular sessions read more

My lady and I Went to see Daniel to get stretched out after doing a 9 day, 3500 mile ride to Arizona on our bike. After riding 8/9 hours a day, Daniel knew just what we needed. Felt great walking out of there. We will definitely be back before our Baja ride next month. Thanks Daniel. read more

I finally tried StretchLab Alameda on Sunday with Xn, and it exceeded my expectations. I like the following three things: assisted PNF stretching where the Flexologist pushes and releases to get you deeper into the stretch than you ever could on your own, percussive therapy with a massage gun, and a vibrating foam roller, all honestly felt like a treat. The combination of all three left my body feeling decompressed. It is not just stretching, they bring great tools and technique to the session, and you feel the difference. Xin is knowledgeable, attentive, and reads your body well throughout. Highly recommend booking at least try a session so you get the experience. I am already planning my next visit. read more

These guys are awesome! Assisted stretching helps accomplish so much more to relieve tightness than I can do on my own. It's been a big help. Highly recommend. read more

We tried StretchLab for the first time this week and immediately fell in love. They are professional, understand your unique needs, and know how to assist with flexibility, recovery, and overall health. We signed up for 4 more sessions each. Can't wait for the next time. read more

I visited the Stretch Lab on Friday, and it was an amazing experience. I suffer from scoliosis in my lower back, which causes me a lot of pain, and my hips were very tight. Val made me feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the session. She even provided me with core workouts to do at home and allowed me to record her instructions to ensure I was doing them correctly. After the session, I immediately signed up for a membership. I shared my experience with my husband, who was convinced to try it as well. I booked him an introductory session on Sunday with Joel, and they hit it off like old friends. My husband had a shoulder injury, and Joel helped him stretch it out effectively. Since my husband frequently goes to the gym, Joel also showed him stretches that would improve his workouts. We both really enjoyed our sessions, and I slept like a baby afterward. The Stretch Lab is fantastic--I also love their massage chairs and massage guns; they are incredible. I've now signed up for the weekly stretch sessions. read more

Its been an awesome experience working with Jeffrey. He's helped me get rid of some nagging issues from past injuries. I was suffering from consistent back pain, but with his stretching techniques I've stopped going to the chiropractor. read more

Really great experience here. I made an appointment with Daniel who took time to understand where I was feeling tight before our session started. He gave me a thorough stretch with focus on my priority areas, then after the stretch gave me helpful advice on things I can do on my own between sessions for maintenance. It's easy to book and everyone is really friendly - highly recommend! read more

I stopped in on Christmas Eve to grab a gift certificate and ended up treating myself to an intro session as well, and I'm so glad I did. From start to finish, the experience was great. Beth was amazing. She was incredibly thorough during the stretch, clearly explaining what she was doing, why it mattered, and what I should (and shouldn't) be doing. She also gave helpful tips so I can continue seeing results beyond the session. Even better, there was zero pressure to sign up for a membership afterward, which I really appreciated. I had tried a different StretchLab before and didn't have a great experience, so I was a bit hesitant this time. But the Alameda location, and Beth specifically, completely changed that for me. I'm already looking forward to my second session this Friday! read more

I've been to a few locations and this is by far my favorite! I am biased because Estrella is an amazing flexologist who knew my body type well from just the first session! Both having dancing backgrounds, she knew specifically what areas to work on and she's excellent! And... the windows in this location are not distracting like some of the other ones. Clean and easy to park and great staff! Easy and comfortable to be there and I feel like part of CLUB STRETCH read more

Highly recommend StretchLAB Alameda! Jeff always greets me very warmly and has a great way with people. He was very thorough and compassionate throughout our session. I am dealing with post car accident injuries and Jeff was very caring and cautious not to stretch too hard. The studio was very clean and had complementary water. Excited to sign up for more sessions! read more

I have been going to StretchLab for about 5 weeks now. Jeff is awesome, and has been working miracles on my flexibility. I have never, in a long adult life, been able to touch the floor without bending my knees and months of chiropractic work. After a few sessions, I was able to touch the floor regularly, and I have improved my "get up off the floor" time significantly. Awesome place, Jeff is amazing, I highly recommend Stretch Lab and Jeff! read more

I did an intro session with Xin and learned a great deal about flexibility and various things I can do to increase mobility. I highly recommend Xin and StretchLab. read more

I had a great 15min demo with Daniel! We started with a mobility exercise and I got to see scores for my joints. Then we worked on stretches for inflammation on my hamstrings and quads. I would def recommend stretchlab for recovery between intense workouts and any chronic pain/issues. I also worked with Angie for upper body before and she was amazing for loosening up tight muscles from working at a desk. read more

Estrella was warm and friendly and took the time to understand where I was feeling tight. She was thorough and thoughtful.

Was feeling really sore before I went in and left feeling so much better! Lana was a great stretch lab therapist!

Stretchlab is an amazing experience. All staff are well trained and many of them have different specialties and backgrounds. I use Stretchlab regularly and have done so at both the Oakland and San Diego locations. I recently tried Alameda and had the same great high quality experience as the other locations. I worked with Jeff at the Alameda location and he is enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and really takes the time to learn about his client's needs and capabilities while providing great service. I find this to be the most efficient way for my body to feel good and undo some of the damage of extended hours of sitting. read more

Excellent stretch therapy. Angie is the best! Flexible scheduling and consistent customer service.

The flexologists at the Alameda Stretch Lab are friendly and attentive and very knowledgeable about all of the muscles and tendons, how to stretch each and how to work around injured areas. I currently see Angie and she is terrific. The Alameda facility is always clean and tidy. I highly recommend assisted stretching to those who exercise, those who don't and those who wish to remain agile as they age! read more

Great first experience -- trainer was Daniel. A+ -- super knowledgable, no hard sell. Felt better after the session, so I'm coming back for more. Glad to have them in town! read more

Paula knows a lot about the body & anatomy and was able to tap into areas that needed stretching.

Had an appointment with Daniel at Stretch Lab Alameda. He was amazing! You never know how much more you need to stretch until you actually have someone assist you. Omg! If you haven't done assisted stretching before, you might want to at least try it out. It will change your life. It'll take your limbs far beyond your limits (sound like Captain Kirk on Star Trek)and really help with more flexibility. Daniel was awesome. He was very patient, professional and very thorough. He was very in tune with what was going on with my body and came up with a stretch regimen that will focus on helping me gain more flexibility and unlock tightness in my quads n hip flexors. I'm excited to get back to see how far I can go. Thank you, Daniel. read more
