KENNEWICK, WA. – If staying limber is your New Year’s resolution this year, then the newest business to come to the Tri-Cities will surely help.

Dozens of people gathered Friday, Jan. 10 in Kennewick for the grand opening of StretchLab.

Business leaders tell KEPR News this new stretching studio, located at 825 N. Edison St., is designed to help individuals of all ages and fitness levels improve flexibility, enhance mobility, reduce muscle tension and pain, and boost overall quality of life.

“Our overall mission is ‘Live Long’. That’s our goal and it starts with stretching,” said Elliott Zajac, the Co-Owner of StretchLab and a former football player for the University of Washington. “Everybody talks about stretching, everybody says that they stretch, but do they? Do they actually take the time to do the proper stretching day in and day out? It’s hard, time is of the essence, and everybody has a busy life.”
