Northern PT VT: Benefits Of Aquatic Therapy

Health Tip

Exercise To Help With Pain:

Study after study reinforces the delicious idea that eating chocolate, especially dark chocolate, is good for you (in moderation, of course). One reason is that cocoa, the main ingredient in chocolate, is packed with antioxidants called polyphenols. The higher the percentage of cocoa in a bar, the higher the concentration of polyphenols. Polyphenols will help fight inflamation in the body, in turn, helping relieve arthritis pain. This recipe, made with cocoa powder, will let you reap the health benefits of dark chocolate without its bitter taste or extra fat or sugar. You can reduce Inflammation by eating healthy!

NPT Values Highlight

Celebrate the successes of patients, each other, and the business: Making a complete revolution on a stationary bike 2 weeks after a total knee replacement is something worth celebrating. Because maybe, for the first time in years your patient has come to realize that their dream of biking across France is now a reality again. At NPT we literally slap our patients high five as we express excitement about their accomplishments in and outside of the clinic. When our patients make objective gains, we make it a big deal, and make sure they recognize their achievement no matter how big or small. And beyond the patients we have the luxury of celebrating one another, and the achievement of the company as a whole. At NPT we know that the greatest companies are not created by gifted CEOs with exemplary vision. They are created by a collection of people who believe in supporting each other, because they recognize that growth and success of the organizationmeans more opportunity for everyone under the roof. When a clinician comes back to work with a new certification such as dry needling, or vestibular management, the rest of us support them by referring patients. When a patient directs a compliment to one of our staff members, we post that comment for our entire staff to see. When NPT members recognize success and achievement, we give it one hell of a high-five! Print sudoku http://1sudoku.com 1 8 4 3 5
