Welcome to StretchLab Harrisburg East

Hi All! I'm Joseph, your friendly neighborhood StretchLab Area Manager and Flexologist. While my Bachelors Degree in Health Science with a focus in Physical Therapy is what qualified me to become a Flexologist, what's made me excel in providing our members with great care is my personal belief that our human vessel is a gift to be nurtured paired with an inquisitive mind. I've stayed keen on the latest research when it comes to health and longevity. Maintaining your movement is at the very top of those key factors. I enjoy activities such as Yoga, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Racquetball, and taking a nice long walk. I fast frequently and eat A LOT of protein. My goal is to do a full straddled split by the time we open our 3rd location. I've always taken an "out of the box" approach to life and StretchLab has been my vessel to help people with stretching programs catered to their personal needs. I couldn't be happier to be bringing my flair to StretchLab and making Harrisburg a little (or maybe a lot) more flexible.

Beyond sports performance, Chris works with the general population to improve mobility, reduce pain, lose body fat, and build sustainable, functional fitness habits that carry over into everyday life.

Hi, I'm Shani, your Self-care Specialist at StretchLab Harrisburg. I firmly believe that providing your body with diverse movement options leads to feeling your best! I've been working in fitness and wellness for decades and I'm so excited to bring my years of experience as a state-licensed massage therapist, YogaPilatesBarre instructor, reiki master, and astrologer to the beautiful members of StretchLab Harrisburg. I hope my wealth of expertise can translate to an amazing experience for everyone I get the pleasure of guiding to their fullest unrealized potential. I prioritize building trust, self-respect, and synergy within our community to foster an environment of deep relaxation infused with a touch of humor. I'm looking forward to going on this journey as a Nationally Accredited Flexologist with StretchLab and the people that want to better themselves through assisted stretching.

I am here to make positive change! I am experienced in a multitude of environments with customer service, and providing every person I encounter with a pleasant experience. I am certified personal trainer through the NASM CTP course, and I have extensive fitness experience through my entire life. I've done boxing workouts, sprint training, weight training, and was a team member in 3 sports. Throughout the past 6 years I have trained many different people including younger people like my brother helping him lower his BMI substantially, and lots of my friends over the years always came to me for help and learned techniques from me in the gym, and outside of the gym with nutrition advice. It is imperative to me that I have a great impact on the lives of as many people as I possibly can, and I am open minded in learning all the ways I can do that most effectively, and efficiently!

As a Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) at StretchLab, I bring a strong foundation in physical therapy to help clients improve mobility and enhance their daily lives. My background equips me with a deep understanding of the body's mechanics, allowing me to tailor stretching sessions to each client's unique needs. I'm passionate about delivering immediate results - whether it's relieving tension, boosting flexibility or supporting recovery. My approach is grounded in precision and care, ensuring every session leaves clients feeling revitalized and empowered to move better. Outside the studio, I coach high school wrestling, where I guide athletes to build strength, discipline and resilience. I'm also an avid traveler, always seeking new perspectives and experiences that enrich my understanding of wellness. I believe everyone - athlete or not - can benefit from a good stretch, and I'm committed to helping StretchLab clients discover the transformative power of flexibility in a welcoming, professional environment.
