Stride stance is used during massage when the therapist needs to maintain stability and balance while applying deep pressure or performing techniques that require body weight transfer. This stance allows the therapist to engage their core and legs, providing more efficient leverage and control during the massage. It's particularly useful in areas that require sustained pressure, such as the back or large muscle groups. Proper use of stride stance helps prevent fatigue and reduces the risk of injury for the therapist.
