Restore PT: How Stretching Can Help Your Pain

STRETCHING CAN HELP YOUR PAIN

Have you noticed how good it feels to stretch after a long car ride? Or maybe you don’t feel any relief stretching the tightness you feel in your back. It can be frustrating to know when to stretch and when not to stretch. Fortunately, at Restore Physical Therapy, our physical therapists can clarify when exactly you need to stretch so you can get the relief you need! Many everyday aches and pains stem from tight muscles and poor mobility. The key to good health is to keep your body

mobile. This helps your circulatory, respiratory, lymphatic, and musculoskeletal systems. Having good mobility means your joints and soft tissues move freely, without restrictions. Poor postural habits, repetitive movements, and injuries can all lead to limitations in your mobility, leading to pain. Normal blood and lymphatic fluids circulate the body easier when your tissues are mobile, oxygenating your tissues properly. This improved circulation helps you feel energized, relieves pain, and allows you to perform daily tasks without feeling tired. At Restore Physical Therapy, our physical therapists can help you identify areas of restriction and solutions to get you moving pain-free again!
