The aim of this therapeutic method is to stretch shortened soft tissue structures and regain the range of joint motion.

Equine Physio Performance bases its stretching techniques on the theory of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF). It allows the integration of sensitive information from sensory receptors through movements involving different planes of space. This technique improves and increases flexibility, muscle strength and coordination, and consequently improves motor response due to the stimulation of the neuromuscular and proprioceptive system.
