We were lucky to catch up with Jeff Pro recently and have shared our conversation below.
Jeff, appreciate you joining us today. Over the course of your career, have you seen or experienced your field completely flip-flop or change course on something?
Topic: Industry/Field-wide U-Turns
One of the most significant U-Turns I’ve witnessed in the health and wellness field is the shift in how we approach flexibility and mobility training. When I first started my career, stretching was often treated as an afterthought—something done quickly before or after a workout, primarily static stretching. The consensus at the time was that it was supplementary, not essential, to fitness and recovery.
Over the past decade, the narrative has completely flipped. Mobility and flexibility training are now seen as integral to overall health, fitness performance, and injury prevention. Dynamic stretching, PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation), and professional-assisted stretching—services like those offered by Mobile Stretch Therapy LLC—are now recognized as essential components of a balanced wellness routine.
This shift has been particularly beneficial for businesses like mine, as clients now understand the importance of investing in their mobility. It’s not just about athletic performance anymore; it’s about long-term health and quality of life.
This industry-wide U-Turn has transformed how we educate clients, design services, and position stretching as a key element of wellness, creating opportunities for innovation and growth in this space.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
**About Jeff Pro and Mobile Stretch Therapy LLC**
Hi, I’m Jeff Pro, the founder of **Mobile Stretch Therapy LLC (MST LLC)**. My journey into this field began with my deep passion for physical health, wellness, and the human body’s capabilities. I have a background as a professional soccer player in the MLS and over 8 years of experience as a master personal trainer and physical therapy assistant. My education in anatomy and physiology, coupled with my love for helping people move and feel better, inspired me to create MST LLC in 2019.

During the pandemic, we adapted to challenging times and emerged stronger, focusing on both in-person services and online education.

Let’s stretch the possibilities—together!
We often hear about learning lessons – but just as important is unlearning lessons. Have you ever had to unlearn a lesson?
A lesson I had to unlearn was that success only comes from working harder, not smarter. Early in my career, I believed that the more hours I put in, the more successful my business would be. I worked tirelessly, juggling everything—from marketing to client sessions and administrative tasks—thinking that doing it all myself was the only way to grow.
This mindset, while driven by ambition, led to burnout. The turning point came when I broke my ankle, which forced me to step back and delegate tasks. This was a hard but valuable lesson: I realized that success doesn’t mean doing everything alone. By hiring coordinators and trusting my team, I not only recovered but also scaled my business to new heights. Letting go of the “I have to do it all” mindset was crucial for sustainable growth and balance.
Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?
In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted businesses worldwide, and MST LLC was no exception. We had been thriving with multiple locations and a growing client base, but suddenly, in-person services were no longer an option. It felt like everything we had worked so hard to build was at risk of falling apart.
Instead of giving up, I saw this as an opportunity to adapt. I quickly pivoted by developing online courses to teach our unique stretch therapy methods. I learned new skills, including creating video content and marketing it to a digital audience. Despite the uncertainty, I remained committed to my vision, and this shift allowed us not only to survive but to reach clients globally.
The experience taught me that resilience is about adapting to change, finding new solutions, and staying focused on the bigger picture, even when the road ahead seems uncertain. Today, the online component of our business is thriving, and we’ve emerged stronger than ever.
