Is there any evidence based study that verifies that stretching leads to more contractures? If there is any studies regarding that, kindly provide some links regarding that.

I don't know either if there is any evidence that stretching contracture tissue may lead to more contractures . But if the muscle is good innervated you can use Active Inhibition to overcome the patient active resistance to stretching.
