General adaptation syndrome
How the body responds and adapts to stress
Alarm reaction
Initial reaction to stressor
Activates protective processes in the body
Resistance development
Body increases functional capacity to adapt to stressor
Exhaustion
Stressor is too much or last too long for systems to handle
Cause breakdown or injury
Corrective flexibility
Increase joint range of motion
Improve muscle imbalance
Corrects altered joint motion

Active flexibility
Improves extensibility of soft tissues
Increase muscular efficiency
Reciprocal inhibition
Functional flexibility
Maintains integrated, Multiplanar soft tissue extensibility
Optimal neuromuscular control
Full range of motion
