Your physical therapist will assess your medical history to determine how many risk factors toward falling you may have. They will educate you on what these factors mean, as well as steps you can take to decrease your risk. Our physical therapists will perform a thorough physical evaluation to figure out the best treatment plan for you. We will start with an injury evaluation and a mobility, strength, and balance assessment to identify all the factors contributing to the injury. This will consist of a thorough history to understand more about the demands on the body, how many risk factors you may have, and your overall health status. In addition, we will include a review of your fall history and fear of falling, as well as identify any home hazards/environmental factors that may contribute to your fall risk. We will use this information to develop a comprehensive program that includes targeted manual techniques, mobility work, strengthening, and any appropriate PHYSICAL THERAPY CAN KEEP YOU ON YOUR FEET
Some common aspects of treatment include: • Pain management. Your physical therapist will work with you on relieving pain first before continuing any other forms of physical activity. • Balance training. Balance is a large part of fall prevention, as lack of stability is one of the main reasons falls occur. Your physical therapist will design a balance training plan for you as part of your treatment. • Strength training. Your physical therapist will design a strength training plan for you, which will focus on specific muscle groups in need of improvement. Your physical therapist will then incorporate task-specific treatments with a safe and effective progression to assist you in a safe return to daily activities. Every good therapy program will include injury prevention strategies that ensure you stay doing what you love!

DIRECTIONS: Drain and slice the tofu. To a blender or food processor, add the cilantro, chipotle peppers and adobo sauce, garlic, orange zest, orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, sugar, cumin, salt, and black pepper to taste. Blend until relatively smooth. Season to taste with more salt and pepper needed. Reserve 4 tbsp of the marinade. Transfer tofu slabs to a shallow dish and pour the rest of the marinade on top. Allow to marinate for at least 15 min. Preheat a gas grill (between medium and medium-high) with the lid on for at least 10 minutes to get the grates really hot. Immediately before or as soon as you add the tofu, turn the burners directly under the tofu to low heat and close the lid. Grill the tofu for 8 to 10 min, until nice grill marks form. Carefully flip each tofu slab and grill for another 7 to 10 min. Once the tofu is grilled, brush it with the reserved marinade. https://rainbowplantlife.com/the-complete-guide-to-vegan-grilling/ 6 4 5 1 7 2 2 8 6 7 9 3 1 6 3 4 http://1sudoku.com n° 221183 - Level Medium
