TL;DR
Stretch Zone has opened its 198th location in Algonquin, Illinois, and is nearing its 200th location. The new studio will provide the local community with proprietary, practitioner-assisted stretching sessions.
This suburban Chicago studio is joining a roster of six existing locations in Illinois, two of which are led by Waqas Abbasi — the franchisee spearheading the Algonquin location. Situated at 1628 S. Randall Road, the studio will provide local community members with its proprietary, practitioner-assisted stretching sessions to help enhance their quality of life.
"We are eager to have the Algonquin community come into Waqas' studio so they can start experiencing the benefits of stretching," said Tony Zaccario, CEO of Stretch Zone.
Coined Road to 200, the Algonquin location is opening in conjunction with three other locations on June 27 - St. Pete, Dallas and Anchorage. To wrap up the day, the corporate team and the entire franchise system will come together to commemorate the achievement virtually.
Using principles of neuromuscular behavior, each 30-minute practitioner-assisted stretching session at Stretch Zone is designed to improve circulation and create a more ideal resting muscle tone. Whether someone is an athlete or looking to improve their mobility so they can quality spend time with their grandchildren, Stretch Zone is customized to meet everyone's personal needs and goals. Practitioners are nationally accredited through an internally developed training and qualification program to ensure a valuable experience to its clients.
The patented stretching system has also earned the trust of chiropractors and complimentary health care professionals. This collective trust in the methodology from clients and professionals alike is why Stretch Zone offers each client their first 30-minute stretch for free.
