Find Lasting Relief with Pin and Stretch Technique in Denver
Do movements like reaching, bending, or exercising leave you wincing in pain? Have injuries, overuse, or the aches and pains of daily life started to add up and impact your mobility? You don’t have to live with stiffness, swelling, and nagging discomfort. At TruStrength Performance & Rehab, our experienced physical therapists specialize in Pin and Stretch Technique —an innovative hands-on treatment that can bring you lasting relief.
A Proven Way to “Unstick” Muscles and Restore Mobility
If you’re an athlete, weekend warrior, or simply looking to regain flexibility for everyday activities, Pin and Stretch Technique could be the answer. This system combines precisely applied manual pressure with specific patient motions to break up adhesions and scar tissue.
Over 500 studies validate the effectiveness of Pin and Stretch Technique for:
- Reducing muscle and joint pain
- Restoring normal nerve function
- Increasing range of motion
- Releasing tension to enhance athletic performance
- Promoting faster recovery from injury
Unlike traditional physical therapy or massage, Pin and Stretch Technique pinpoints restricted areas in muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves. Using expert palpation skills and feedback from patients on sensation and comfort levels, our therapists apply pressure while gently moving the affected body parts in various directions. This allows us to feel for and address abnormal tissues.
It’s like a deep tissue massage crossed with mobilization movements. We break up adhesions, relieve nerve entrapments, and restore healthy muscle motion. Patients often describe the sensation as intensely relieving. It’s extremely effective at eliminating the underlying causes of nagging aches, pains, and mobility limitations.
Who Benefits From Pin and Stretch Technique?
Pin and Stretch Technique is a game changer for anyone dealing with:
- Chronic neck, back, knee, shoulder, or other joint pain
- Limited flexibility due to past injuries and scar tissue
- Frequent headaches or nerve irritation
- Difficulty recovering from strains, sprains, or surgery
- Athletic performance plateaus from muscle tightness
- Discomfort that anti-inflammatories and rest fail to resolve
Whether you’re 8 or 80, if the activities you love—from gym sessions to playing with grandkids—are hindered by nagging issues in your muscles and joints, Pin and Stretch Technique could help you find relief.

Answers to Your Top Active Release Technique Questions
The thought of intensive manual therapy on your aching joints may sound intense. Here are answers to common Pin and Stretch questions from our patients:
Does Pin and Stretch Technique actually work?
Absolutely. Multiple peer-reviewed studies validate Pin and Stretch Technique effectiveness. A 2022 clinical trial found just 4-6 treatments significantly reduced shoulder pain and disability. Pin and Stretch also demonstrates positive outcomes for relieving plantar fasciitis, increasing hip mobility, and easing chronic neck dysfunction.
How long does Pin and Stretch Technique take to work?
Patients often report an immediate decrease in discomfort and effortless movement following initial sessions. As we eliminate tissue restrictions over 3-6 visits, range of motion progressively improves, pain diminishes, and function restores.
Will Pin and Stretch Technique hurt or have side effects?
Some mild soreness can occur after initial treatments from releasing tension in tissues not used to moving freely. This temporary response is normal. Pin and Stretch Technique should never cause injury or require extended recovery periods between sessions.
Our therapists carefully monitor patient feedback and comfort throughout treatments. We’ll guide you through controlled motions to specifically target problem tissues without overstressing areas. Let your therapist know if anything we do ever feels unbearable so we can adjust our approach. Our goal is to create lasting change without discomfort.
