About Leslie
Hi! I'm Leslie, Fascia Stretch Specialist, LMT, Level 2 MELT Method instructor and Founder of The Wright Stretch. My mission is pretty simple: Help people stretch effectively so they can experience lasting relief from chronic pain.
My history with assisted stretching began over 20 years ago. I graduated from Massage school in 2004 and spent over a year training directly under the tutelage of the creators of Fascia Stretch Therapy shortly after. Ann and Chris Frederick's FST training planted a deep seed of curiosity about the importance of the fascial system in bodywork for me that continues to grow today.
In 2006 I founded The Wright Stretch in the greater Seattle area and worked with a wide variety of clients from professional athletes to elderly stroke survivors. I loved everything about working with my clients and sharing FST there but in 2020 my husband received military orders that initiated a move to Hawaii.
On the beautiful island of Oahu I continued my education, obtaining certifications in the MELT Method (a self-care system developed to reduce or eliminate chronic pain) and Active Release Techniques. I was blessed to work with some phenomenal clients and students there but After 4 years it was time for my husband to retire. We decided to settle down and raise our kids back in my home state of WY surrounded by family.
Since arriving in WY I have continued to teach weekly MELT classes online, keeping ties with some of my students from the island. I obtained my board certification in Massage Therapy and Bodywork through NCBTMB (the highest credentialing available in the profession) and laid the groundwork for The Wright Stretch to finally put down permanent roots.
Helping people feel (and stretch) their best is one of my greatest passions in life and I am honored to work with each and every client I meet. Please feel free to reach out directly with any questions or schedule your appointment today so you can Stretch The Wright Way!
