Stretch Affect

What Stretch Affect does

Stretch Affect operates a physical therapy and movement health practice based in San Diego, founded in 2017 by Kyle Valery and Chris Wilke and conducted through Perkins PT. The practice delivers one-on-one physical therapy, personal training, recovery services, and performance diagnostics — including VO2 max testing, 3D motion capture, force plate analysis, and gait analysis — to high-net-worth individuals, professional athletes, and corporate clients. Service delivery follows a proprietary "Movement Health Journey" methodology that structures the progression from assessment through programming, supported by an internal content library of more than 1,000 videos.

The product portfolio spans in-clinic sessions, vertically-segmented multi-week wellness programs (golf, youth sports, executive performance, RESET retreat), a self-care content library organized by body region, and a mobile application. Corporate wellness is delivered through on-site Performance Lab engagements and an online Performance Posture program distributed via a partnership with Peak Labs. Diagnostics capability has been extended through a VO2 Master hardware partnership, layering metabolic testing onto the existing biomechanics stack.

Revenue is generated through per-session fees, three-month membership subscriptions, corporate wellness contracts, and online course sales. Named enterprise clients include BDO, Intuit, LPL Financial, Kashi, and Raymond James, though these are characterized in source material as minor partnerships rather than sole-source relationships. The practice operates with a small team of 1-10 employees (6+ practitioners, including two DPTs and an MPT) from a single San Diego location, with no disclosed funding, no multi-site expansion, and no revenue disclosure in the available data.
