🎙️What if improving your flexibility, mobility, and recovery was easier than stretching on your own?

In this episode of Pickleballers Next Door, we sit down with Dani Dotson, Regional Director at Stretch Zone, and Russell Cruz, Business Development Manager, to explore The Stretch Zone Effect -- a science-backed approach to assisted stretching that is changing the way athletes and active adults recover and move.

We break down the new Stretch Zone Effect study, the science behind practitioner-assisted stretching, and how it can help improve range of motion, muscle recovery, and overall performance — whether you're a pickleball player, athlete, or simply want to move better in everyday life.

Dani and Russell also share the fascinating story behind Stretch Zone founder Jordan Gold, and how a single life event turned into one of the fastest growing assisted stretching franchises in the country.

If you’re looking to reduce soreness, increase flexibility, prevent injury, and stay active longer, this episode is packed with insights.

Fun Fact: “Stretch Zone has gained major national attention with NFL legend Drew Brees becoming a multi-unit franchise owner and brand ambassador after personally experiencing the benefits of practitioner-assisted stretching. His involvement has helped shine a spotlight on the Stretch Zone Effect — a science-backed approach to improving mobility, flexibility, and recovery for athletes and active adults.”
