STRETCH ZONE CELEBRATES GRAND OPENING IN MYSTIC, CT

Premier Assisted Stretching Franchise Welcomes Newest Location Under Local Leadership

MYSTIC, Conn., July 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Stretch Zone, the nation's premier assisted-stretching brand featuring a patented strapping system on proprietary tables, is proud to announce the opening of its newest location in Mystic, CT. This emphasizes Stretch Zone's continuous expansion on the heels of their 400th location milestone, and is operated by Chad and Jennifer Sklodosky, proud local owners and first-time franchisees.

Chad, who has spent the last 30 years working in Operational Excellence, was drawn to Stretch Zone through a deeply personal connection—both he and his daughter have a Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder that affects their flexibility. "Discovering Stretch Zone felt like the missing link for our family and our future," Chad explains. "It wasn't just about a business opportunity—it was about building something that could change lives, starting with our own."

Inspired by his Mother Emily, who started a business while raising ten children in addition to working from home, business ownership has long been a dream for Chad, and Stretch Zone presented the perfect opportunity to pursue it alongside his wife, Jennifer. Chad and Jennifer both share a passion for wellness, and they are already looking forward to opening two additional studios in the region.

"Our favorite part of owning a Stretch Zone is being part of the community and offering something that truly helps people," Jennifer shares. "This isn't your average fitness service—it's transformative. We help people feel better, move better, and live better."

Stretch Zone provides a unique approach to improving mobility, offering customized stretching plans designed to meet the specific needs and goals of each member. The opening of the Mystic location brings this cutting-edge wellness service to a community known for its active lifestyle and appreciation for holistic health. "Mystic is a gem of a town," Chad says. "With a culture rooted in well-being, activity, and connection, we're honored to serve its residents and visitors alike. Whether you're walking the historic seaport or enjoying the local trails, Stretch Zone can help you move with more ease and comfort."

Stretch Zone is the only nationally accredited stretch franchise, thanks to its patented equipment and proprietary training methodology. The brand uses a science-backed approach to stretching, helping muscles relax and move more freely for better flexibility and mobility. With a welcoming environment and an open studio layout, Stretch Zone emphasizes a gradual, personalized approach that helps members safely increase their mobility and range of motion over time.
