Range Of Motion (ROM) Training
A unique service, created and taught exclusively by Patty Soud, ROM Training is a therapeutic hands-on session dedicated to increasing your body’s overall flexibility and joint range of motion. I sometimes describe ROM Training as a sort of “massage for your joints.” Every single personal who walks away from a ROM sessions says they feel “absolutely amazing,” wholesome, renewed and pain-free.
Each ROM session is personally customized with specific stretches and postures. The gentlest approach will stretch and release every area of tightness in your body, with natural pain relief. ROM Training can also help improve faulty posture, help give you a more restful night’s sleep, increase blood circulation, and prevent injuries.
What Can You Expect?
A Deep-Down Experience
Expect full-body stretching, and gentle passive-assisted progression into deeper sequences. Learn to relax with deep breathing techniques while you let go of conscious and sub-conscious muscle guarding. ROM Training includes the most effective functional stretches designed to target deeper into the muscle tissues, where you may feel acute or chronic stiffness and muscular pain.

ROM Training is most effective for reducing muscle tightness; especially lower back pains, neck strains, and painful spasms that may refer pain into another muscle group by a connecting nerve branch. Many have described this service as a massage to the joints and wringing sensation to each individual muscle group. Increase your joint range of motion for a fuller, unlimited mobility as you’ll feel renewed with better physical ability and flexibility.
How I developed ROM Therapy
I developed the ROM Therapy step-by-step by learning the benefits of holding stretching postures coupled with deep breathing: learning to relax when a muscle was tight, to discover how much more the elasticity in the muscle can lengthen safely.
My knowledge of the musculature and joints functional range of motion also helps. My degree in athletic training assisted by helping me understand anatomy at a deep level: seeing the muscle fibers, tendon attachment sites, etc. (As part of my education, I dissected a human cadaver to discover the structures underneath the skin, all the way to the bone. It was a somber but thoroughly educational experience.)
Yoga has helped me to add more variety to the sequence of stretches; it is part of the reason the ROM Therapy leaves my clients feeling so relaxed and refreshed.
