FASCIAL STRETCH THERAPY
What is It?
Balanced Bodies Studio Owner Leslie Spicer uses various tools and techniques to gently and painlessly stretch the fascial lines. You will be assisted in getting into a position and then moving in a way that facilitates a deeper stretch. Stretching shouldn’t be painful. The process slowly increases your range of motion and gives you increased flexibility and comfort. The aim of the session is to increase the space in your joints, allowing for unhindered bone movement within the capsule, leading to reduced pain and discomfort and promoting smoother and more fluid movement.

I have been seeing Leslie for over 7 years. I first started going to her once a month and then once every 2 weeks and now I see her once a week. Being a tall guy limits my ability to reach. Leslie has greatly improved my flexibility and mobility in my lower back and shoulders. I would highly recommend her to anyone that is stiff or has limited mobility issues.
-Jay Morris (Business Owner-Hill Top Tree)
I have been working with Leslie for more than 5 years. Facial Stretch Therapy is an important part of my personal wellness plan. It’s great for stress relief and helps with muscle soreness. If you’ve not tried it, I definitely recommend it!
I enjoy the time I spend with Leslie and I always come away from our discussions learning something. I highly recommend taking advantage of the services she offers.
I regularly take her Stretch/Mobility class. Each week she varies the program which keeps it interesting. During the class she offers suggestions and is always encouraging. Any time I miss a class, I definitely notice it!
I have also had Leslie design customized programs for me. She has extensive fitness & nutrition knowledge and I trust her advise 100%.

Along with my wife Winnie, we continue to be PT clients as well as for Facial Stretch Therapy (FST) and her Stretch and Core classes. When the pandemic hit, she successfully transitioned to virtual classes. Leslie cares for all her clients, promoting that we be the CEO of our Health. She works with us, not only our physical selves but also with nutrition and mindset suggestions. We are very pleased to have Leslie involved in our health journey.

I thought the tightness of my joints --- specifically my hips and knees were because my parts were showing signs of wearing out, lol. Deep down, I knew I was WRONG!!! When I started the Stretch classes with Leslie, EVERYTHING changed. My flexibility increased, my fear of bending to a squat position to weed my garden, completely disappeared. I feel now that I'm a "show-off" with my friends because I can get to places I've never been able to reach for many years and getting up from a crouched position isn't agonizing at all, like it was. Leslie --- I can’t thank Leslie for getting me back on track and creating the awareness of how very powerful and important stretching is to quality of life. It takes so little time to do Leslie's stretching program which has made such a huge improvement to my own quality of life.

Hi Leslie,
We wanted to tell you how grateful we are in meeting you. Your commitment to a healthy life style is not only motivating but also inspiring.
After COVID we definitely experienced some overall wellness challenges for our entire family. When we spoke to you about some sessions for our family to incorporate training and nutrition, you exploded with excitement and ideas on a Family Lifestyle Program. You took the approach of addressing not only each of our individual needs/goals but then combined it into a family type program that includes all of us. You have given us a lot in the past couple months from having someone to talk to always about healthy lifestyle choices, to doing training family workouts, to individual training workouts, better understanding of nutrition, to great healthy easy to do recipes and of course the fascial stretches. The past couple of months have been challenging but most importantly fun for us all.
Your relaxed approach in taking those small steps forward really does work in making changes that become a permanent part of life. Not easy but definitely doable.
Thank you for being there for our entire family and being super cool!
With Love and Respect!
-Belinda, Sante, Samantha and Jessica

Leslie has helped me tremendously in my wellness journey. I met Leslie at a time in my life where my muscles were extremely tight. Tight to the point where I couldn’t even hinge at the hips to put on my shoes and pants on. As I started to receive FST from Leslie her magic hands stretched my tight muscles leaving me feeling refreshed and limber. I recently needed to get back on track with my eating habits. I was having a lot of tummy issues and Leslie came to the rescue again. she put me on her new month-long Gut reset program. WOW after the just 1st week my body was functioning back to normal. I had no more bloating and felt lighter and regular. I am so lucky to have found Leslie for all my health and wellness needs. she is the full package I and I couldn’t live my life without her positivity and immense knowledge.
