Level Up Your Training To Work In The Health And Wellness Industry
Stretch Mobility Coach Certification is as close as your smartphone and will provide a rehab professional the skills and essential training required to help their community stay away from avoidable surgeries.
The Stretch Mobility Coach Curriculum was developed to provide a rehab professional with the knowledge and skills they need to help customers Stretch Pain and Tightness Away. The TSM training model instructs long term relief programs to put the needed skilled care back into the hands of rehab providers. This online training platform allows a rehab professional to work at their own pace, while learning a preventative care system that works to rebuild the musculoskeletal system.
This curriculum takes your education, and experience and teaches theory and practice based care that will take a client experiencing pain and or tightness through a successful program that provides long term, preventative care and relief that keeps your community away from reactive care.
In the field of PT, OT and ATC we can see that we help people to get out of pain rather well, however, we were not taught the essential coaching skills, clinical sales system, or treatment program parameters that take a client through a SUCCESSFUL long-term relief and prevention program.

TESTIMONIALS
★★★★★ 5/5
“I have been working as a SMC Level 2 for over 2 years now. In that time, I have been able to see my clients reach their personal goals of being able to move their bodies without pain/tightness and avoid surgeries. Working as a SMC and utilizing TSM is different from how I worked when in an outpatient ortho setting, purely on how we treat the clients and how we look at what a client needs. In the ortho outpatient setting, I had the PT’s initial evaluation and plan of care to follow on how to treat the patients. A typical day would be seeing anywhere from 2-3 clients an hour, having these clients perform certain exercises and performing manual techniques as insurance allowed. Working with TSM, allows us to see our clients 1-on-1, dig deeper and find what’s causing the pain/tightness and using the 5 phase system, we get clients to prevent these issues from coming back. Over the 2 years, I have maintained some of Kim’s clients who have been coming for years and transitioned my own caseload into a maintenance program where we continue to keep our clients reaching their personal goals and avoiding surgery, by using TSM and seeing these clients every once a month.”

What can I expect to learn at the 3-day Intensive Skills Mastery Training Camp?
This training is put together to immerse you into how a Stretch Mobility Coach functions daily. This experience introduces you to clients that currently seek care with our Stretch Mobility Coaches. You can see how different working as a SMC Stretch Mobility Coach is from working as a PTA. You will get to see a busy clinic and experience clients that are bought into their care. You will learn our sales process, our customer service, see our treatments and learn personally from Jordan and Kim. You will be able to practice your new hands-on skills and learn how to teach and progress the exercise program. You will also learn how to document, track progress, transition a client and so much more. This is meant to be an experience you will never forget that will set you up for success in your clinic.
Is the training camp mandatory to receive my certification?
Yes! However, if you are close to a facility and can apprentice at that facility, you can gain your experience and begin your training at that facility and not have to attend the skills mastery. However, West Chester is the corporate office and is a busy clinic. This experience to be in the founding location will be like no other experience.
Will there be other locations for the camp in the future?
Yes, as we grow other affiliate locations will be able to host the 3-day intensive. Stay tuned for more information on that.
What does it mean to be a SMC apprentice?
A Stretch Mobility Coach apprentice is what you may call yourself until you receive your official certification through TSM. The entire training can take anywhere from 1 year to 2 years that is up to you. Once you have apprenticed and feel that your training log and experience as a Stretch Mobility Coach have provided you with what you need to pass the practicum exam, you can apply to take the practicum seminar. You will be an apprentice until you have passed the Stretch Mobility Coach practicum seminar.
How do I request to apprentice at a location near me?
Contact the location to see if they have available openings for an apprentice.
If I apprentice at a location near me, do I need to attend the 3-day Intensive Training?
No, however, West Chester is the founding location and is able to provide you with a busy clinic where you will gain experience from Jordan and Kim. Apprentice with a Stretch Mobility Coach location only and you will be limited to the knowledge that coach brings to the table. Apprenticeship is a great starting point.
What airport is near the West Chester office?
You can fly into Dayton or Cincinnati airports.
Where do I stay while I am at the 3-day intensive Skills Mastery Training Camp?
We can supply you with a list or you can search hotels near Union Center West Chester and will find a lot of places to stay that are within 5 miles of the West Chester Clinic.
“OMG I just worked on my parents and literally almost got nauseous doing the exams, like I don’t know what I am doing nauseous. The only reason I feel remotely better is because my dad is pain free and he is never pain free and my momma said she could get up/down better but Kim I am going home to get back on the portal to learn more. The Stretch Method really works! I don’t completely know what I am doing yet, but the results I have gotten really blow me away. I am only 2 weeks into my training. I can’t thank you enough for allowing me to be a part of your brand.”

“I am glad I jumped in to become a Stretch Mobility Coach Affiliate owner – I am only 2 months into my training and have raised my prices and am almost full with clients. If I continue on this route I will need to hire another SMC the first of the year. This training has been so helpful for me. Thank you!”
