Lateral Net

Any movement that is largely composed of a lateral or side bend would elongate or stretch the LN. Often, clients have uneven or greatly restricted ROM bilaterally, which benefits greatly from stretching the LN. It should be noted that walking, running, and climbing stairs often require a great deal of stability from the LN. Thus, assessments should be relied on to determine when and where stretching should be applied.
