How physical therapy can help you become more active for springtime According to the HHS, “More than 80% of adults do not meet the guidelines for both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities, and more than 80% of adolescents do not do enough aerobic physical activity to meet the guidelines for youth.” Finding the time or the motivation to exercise is difficult for many people, but with a season of renewal right around the corner for us, it’s important to know what your options are when it comes to getting into shape! Physical therapy is not only useful for people recovering froman injury or surgical procedure. Restore physical therapists are movement specialists who offer safe and natural ways of healing, as well as ways to improve your
overall level of fitness so that you can enjoy physical activities this spring! A physical therapist in Marlton can evaluate your current physical condition and assess your fitness level. Whether you’re currently moving with assistance from a cane, walker, or orthotic device, or you’re a serious athlete, physical therapy can help you increase your fitness level, reduce your chance of injury, and eliminate pain from sore muscles. Our therapists can also teach you the proper techniques for warming up before your chosen activity and the best post-workout stretches for an effective cool-down. HAS YOUR PAIN COME BACK?
Springtime is here, and with it comes new beginnings, growth, and a chance to get started on reaching your fitness goals! All of us have been stuck inside for months, so it goes without saying that now more than ever it’s important to stay on top of your health and make sure you’re engaging in activities that encourage you to get up and move. The weather is warming up, so it’s a great time to “spring” into action and start doing the things you love again! Sometimes, however, the fear of sustaining an injury can prevent you from leading a healthy and active lifestyle. If you’re in need of assistance in improving your mobility, physical therapy can help. Contact Restore Physical Therapy today to schedule an appointment.

SPRINGTIME ACTIVITIES THAT PHYSICAL THERAPY CAN MAKE MORE ENJOYABLE
if you’re suffering from injuries that have not healed, or chronic pain conditions that restrict your mobility. Physical therapy can help to mobilize your joints and help you build up strength and endurance so you can continue taking those long bike rides through the park, mountains, or city streets! YOGA Yoga is a great way to gently increase your heart rate and improve your levels of flexibility. It also strengthens your muscles! Many physical therapy programs already incorporate stretches that are found in yoga routines, however, if yoga is your preferred method of fitness, a physical therapist can help ease chronic aches and pains that may be making yoga difficult for you. The better you feel about your abilities to do your stretches and poses, the more often you can take your mat outside to practice! SPRING INTO BETTER HEALTH THIS SEASON Restore Physical Therapy offers many types of therapeutic methods to help athletes and week- end warriors alike to participate in whatever fitness or an outdoor activity they love the most. If you’re interested in polishing up your physical abilities this season, call our clinic today to schedule an appointment.
A physical therapy program can increase your fitness level and help you make the most of your favorite activities! Some of the most common activities that physical therapy can help you enjoy more fully are running, gardening, biking, and yoga. RUNNING Running can be hard on the joints, espe- cially as we age. One of the most common injuries that keep people from running without pain are shin splints. These occur when there is pain along the large bone in the front of the lower leg, known as the tibia or shin bone. They are normally due to poor alignment of the body, or weakness in the leg muscles. A physical therapist can help make sure your joint health is up to par before you hit the trails! GARDENING Gardening usually requires you to get down on your hands and knees in the dirt! Physi- cal therapy can help you to relieve any knee pain you’ve been experiencing that may keep you from spending time outside tending your flowers, fruits or vegetables. Severe knee injuries often include bone bruises or damage to the cartilage or ligaments, which a physical therapist can identify and remedy. BIKING Biking is a super fun activity people enjoy doing as it warms up outside! Similar to running and gardening, however, biking can also prove to be difficult

3 NATURAL WAYS TO BEAT SPRING ALLERGIES TRY THESE SIMPLE TIPS TO PROTECT YOU FROM SPRING ALLERGENS!
1. LIMITYOURTIMEOUTDOORS. Each spring, trees release billions of tiny pollen grains into the air. When you breathe them into your nose and lungs, they can trigger an allergic reaction. Staying inside can help, especially on windy days and during the early morning hours, when pollen counts are highest. 2. TWEAKYOURHOME. Simple changes make a difference. Shut all windows to keep out pollen. Use an air conditioner to cool your home instead of a fan, which draws in air from outside. Take off your shoes at the door and ask guests to do the same. That keeps allergens
outside. Finally, don’t allow guests, or yourself, to smoke inside the home. It can make allergy symptoms worse. If you or someone you live with smokes, now is a good time to quit. 3. KEEP IT CLEAN! Be sure to wash all surfaces regularly with single-wipe dust rags (if using cleaning rags, be sure to wash them in hot water after each use). If you find mold, use water and detergent to clean, then let it air-dry completely. Finally, wash all bedding once a week in hot water and dry in a hot dryer.

“I had a good experience with Dr. Alexandra Davis at RESTORE a couple of years ago when having back issues, so when it came time for a total hip replacement I gave no second thought as to where I would go for physical therapy. I worked with Alex for six weeks prior to my surgery in order to get in the best shape I could, then followed up with post surgery care for about nine weeks. Alex put me through my paces before and after- in a firm but gentle way, and as a result I am now totally pain free and back to working and living my life “normally” again. She and all the therapists and staff at Restore are professional and expert, while at the same time being warm and caring. I left each session not only feeling better physically, but with my spirits uplifted.” -Art J. “I left each session not only feeling better physically, but with my spirits uplifted”
