Lisa Dattilo is the first to bring Resistance Stretching to the St. Louis area. As a distance cyclist and spinning instructor, she suffered from extremely tight muscles in her arms and back, which lead to hand palsy. In the early months of 2008, she was introduced to Resistance Stretching which alleviated her back and arm issues. Lisa learned first hand about the therapeutic aspect of this system when she broke her radius and scaphiod while participating in the AidsLifeCycle in the summer of 2008. Traditional physical therapy was not enough. Through Resistance Stretching, she recovered with full range of motion and strength through every finger. It removed scar tissue, increasing circulation and released pressure from the broken bones. She has since become certified in what she believes is the foundational element in all core stability... being able to completely contract the muscle as well as stretching the muscle, giving you the ability to become stronger and more efficient. Lisa currently works as a lab coordinator and technician in the Department of Ophthalmology at Washington University School of Medicine and has been a spinning instructor for 10 years in the greater St. Louis area. She is located Sante Health and Wellness Center at the Chase Park Plaza. She received her training in Resistance Stretching from Anne Tierney, Steve Sierra and Carrie Collins. Lisa is spreading the word about the benefits of Resistance Stretching throughout the Midwest through classes, workshops and private stretching sessions. Lisa specializes in injury prevention and recovery for athletes, but sees clients of all ages and abilities.
