Are you looking forward to getting more active after a long winter this spring? Do you worry that with more activity comes more aches and pains? At Restore Physical Therapy, our therapists understand injuries, how to resolve them, and avoid them. We will work with you to make sure you have a great Spring! Springtime is here, and with it comes rekindled energy to get started on resolving old injuries and reaching your fitness goals! All of us have been stuck inside for months, so 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! The fear of injury or perceived difficulty getting started can prevent you from initiating the steps needed for a healthy and active lifestyle.
If you require assistance for getting started, whether to resolve an injury or commit to fitness, physical therapy can help. Physical Therapy Can Help You Be More Active This Spring Studies indicate that only about 20% of the adult population in America exercises enough (i.e., minutes per day and days per week). Busy life and lack of motivation are often the main excuses for this inactivity. For some, injuries and uncertainty about what to do and how to do it are explanations for sedentary lifestyles. Finding the time or the motivation to exercise is difficult for many people. Still, with a season of renewal right around the corner for us, it’s essential to know what your options are when it comes to getting into shape! Physical therapy is helpful for people recovering from an injury or surgical procedure. Restore
Physical Therapy physical therapists are movement specialists who offer safe and effective ways to improve your overall fitness level so that you can enjoy physical activities this spring! Some of the common Springtime activities physical therapy can help with include: Running — Running can be hard on the joints, especially as we age. One of the most common injuries that keep people from running without pain is shin splints. These occur when there is pain along the bone in the lower leg, known as the tibia or shin bone. Shin splints are often the result of inexperience, training errors (i.e., too far, too fast), and a previous unresolved injury. A physical therapist can help ensure your body is adequately prepared before you hit the trails! Gardening — Gardening usually requires you to get down on your hands and knees in the dirt!
