North County Water & Sports Therapy Center - November 2023

When preparing for your flight, it’s essential to pack the basics, such as clothing, medications, toiletries, and your travel documents. However, there are some surprising and often overlooked items that can greatly enhance your flying experience. These unexpected additions in your carry-on can make your air travel experience more comfortable, enjoyable, and stress-free. ELECTROLYTES Flying is dehydrating! Because airplane cabins are kept at a lower humidity level, your body dehydrates quicker than normal. To help keep your body hydrated without a dozen trips to the bathroom over the course of your flight, pack some electrolyte packets to mix into your water. Speaking of water, pack an empty water bottle with you, and after passing through security, you can fill it up at a water fountain! NOISE-CANCELING HEADPHONES Flights can be noisy. You can never predict crying babies, loud talkers, or hyper kids traveling alongside you. Noise-canceling headphones can provide a peaceful oasis amidst the hustle and bustle of the airplane. They ELEVATE YOUR TRAVEL EXPERIENCE UNCONVENTIONAL ITEMS TO PACK ON YOUR NEXT FLIGHT

block out ambient noise and allow you to relax, listen to music, or enjoy in-flight entertainment without any distractions.

PORTABLE CHARGER While you may have remembered to pack your plug-in phone charger, bringing along a portable charger and power bank is a lifesaver! Sometimes, finding an available charging station in a crowded airport can be tricky. But having a backup power source on the plane makes it possible to keep your devices charged throughout your journey! When packing for your next flight, don’t forget to include these trip- saving items in your carry-on for a more pleasant travel experience — you’ll be glad you did!

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

“I started coming to North County Water and Sports Therapy for my ACL rehabilitation last year. Everyone who helped me was incredibly kind and patient. When I first started coming, it was a week after my surgery, so I could barely walk. All of the staff would know my progress and cheer me on. It was so encouraging for everyone to be proud of my ever-so-slight increase in range of motion. My treatment was geared toward me and my goals. A year and then some, later, I’m back to sports activities I love. Not only that, but I’m also stronger and more mindful of my body. Thank you to everyone who was a part of my recovery journey! Thank you for making PT fun and everything along the way!”
