Continue Moving Without Fear Of Injury! AVOID COMMON ACTIVE INJURIES

Whether you just like to play weekend sports, walk for exercise or are an avid athlete, injuries can happen from time to time. It’s easy to sustain an injury to your muscles, tendons, or ligaments if you do not train properly. At the microscopic level, when muscles, tendons and ligaments are over-stretched, little tears form in the tissues. Your body normally heals quickly from this. However, the severity of the injury determines how

old sprains and strains can stay around to haunt you if they have not been properly rehabilitated. Tendonitis Tendonitis is an inflammation of the tendons from overuse. This can be for a variety of reasons, but typically, that body part is taking the strain due to poor body mechanics. For example, tendonitis in the shoulder or elbow is typically from poor posture of the neck and upper back. This causes an altered movement in the shoulder and arm, increasing strain on the tendons. Physical therapy helps by relieving the inflammation and pain while restoring normal motion and posture. If you suffer from aches, pains, or would just like to move better than you used to, call Marketplace Wellness today to learn more about how physical therapy can help you LIVE LIFE PAIN FREE!

long it will take to fully recover. Sprains and Strains

Severe sprains and strains may require braces and even surgery. These can range from mild to severe. Realize, that for even mild sprains, the body can take about 6 weeks to heal the soft tissue. That means adequate rest and rehabilitation is needed to fully recover from this type of injury. The recovery from this can be longer, 8 weeks or more and it is wise to have proper physical therapy rehabilitation to recover. Even

Avoiding These Tips May Be The Reason For Your Injury! 4 TIPS TO HELP PREVENT INJURIES

Stretch. Stretching is one of the most important ways to prevent injuries. Your muscles and other tissues require oxygen, nutrients, and blood flow to be elastic. Stretching helps bring these things into the tissues making them more elastic and allowing them to stretch more. This prevents over-stretching and tearing. Hydrate and nutrition. Your body is more than 70 percent water and therefore requires water to be supple and function at its best. Without adequate water and nutrition, your body’s tissues are more prone to injury. Hydrate and make sure you replenish the electrolytes you lost during activity with a sports drink like Gatorade. Stay within your abilities. We have all heard of the term “weekend warrior” which means a person that has not prepared their body at all to go out and

do extensive sports or activities on the weekend. Typically, this person is more prone to injury, just because they are not prepared. If you have a hard time running, then you wouldn’t go out and do a marathon. Make sure that you train properly and safely for the sport or activity you would like to try. Wear proper equipment. Make sure you have the right equipment to prevent injuries when doing activities. Good running shoes, proper hiking boots, helmets and much more can make the difference when it comes to preventing injury. Still concerned that you may injure yourself during activity? Contact us today for a consultation at 951-684-2874! We will help you return to a pain-free and active lifestyle!

Patient Success SPOTLIGHT “I am beginning to lose weight!” Pamela W. Pamela loves having a coach to guide her. She was able to get off her Metformin medication and stopped wearing her compression socks. “Just a note to let Michael know how grateful I am to be able to be a part of the Powell Metabolic Program. I am beginning to lose weight and that is something I couldn’t seem to do without the help I am getting with this program. My diabetes is under control and that makes me very happy. The Healthy Options and Portions along with recipes give you a lot to choose from. I especially like the protein shakes. The best part for me is stepping on the scale to see I have lost another pound or two during the week. So please let Michael know howmuch I appreciate the opportunity he has afforded to me!” - Pamela W. In addition to her success, Pamela has lost a total of 12 pounds and 7.5 inches on her waist!

Proud of you Pamela!
