>> "...Hello, anonymous, whoever you are,<br />>> "please help clarify what happens when we stretch a tight muscle on ourselves and/or on another person."<br /><br />I don't know, because how do we isolate a stretch maneuver to just one kind of tissue? On ourselves or on somebody else? I think that's a story somebody made up and everyone adopted for convenience. The body is heterogeneous, i.e., lots of kinds of tissue. <br /><br />>> "I think the hockey goalies in this world might benefit from an improved understanding of the stretch reflex."<br /><br />Probably everyone could. <br /><br />>> "Thank you, I love your writing, even though I don't understand all of it, still pretty technical for me."<br /><br />Thank you, I appreciate anyone who reads my mental composting efforts.

Could then the suffering human learn how to reset chronic muscular contractions that have become temporarily "deadened," or suspended from normal function? What if the person providing guidance also supplied a bit of resistance to the voluntarily-initiated movement of the suffering human, as they carry out movement akin to the pattern they are currently holding? Could that "wake up" the target area, bringing it back online? Then, the person providing the assistance is more like a teacher, rather then someone who "works" the person over, sometimes creating more pain than before... And please help clarify what happens when we stretch a tight muscle on ourselves and/or on another person. I think the hockey goalies in this world might benefit from an improved understanding of the stretch reflex.
