BODY CODE® SYSTEM
MasterStretch®
BODY CODE® SYSTEM MasterStretch® are rocker platformed shoes which cultivates uber core by establishing your balance with connectivity of the correct muscle groups and thereby affects the whole muscle chain from the toes to the head. They were designed for exercises based on the rocking movement of the ankle which moves the body’s centre of gravity backwards and forwards, this leads to optimal ankle and postural stabilization and therefor, balance through a true sense of one’s core, over time.
An excellent stretching method for correct alignment for dancers, gymnasts, equestrians and swimmers where total symmetry in balance and strength of the body is required. Also an even more important way to re-align through more correct muscle development for one side dominant sports or activities like tennis and golf players, any ball related sport, ballroom dancers who dance with a rotation in the body. It is a very beneficial way of correcting movement for any sport or activity where true balance, which is from equal strength on both sides of the body is of essence but any person can benefit from this way of stretching and strengthening and facing the coordination challenges of the movements.
Complex neuro-muscular fascia chains, muscles and tendons are gradually elongated as the vertebrae of the spine undulate with arching and curling of the thoracic and lumbar spine in some of the movements. When supine - lying on your back, with the legs vertical at a 90 degree angle to the torso, the weight of the Master Stretch shoes opens the lumbar and sacral regions and strengthens the lower back and hip rotator muscles with the movements. This strengthening of the synergic-antigravitational muscles leads to enhanced muscle stabilization which prevents spinal and joint injuries.
